That last song on 'The College Dropout' where Kanye talks about getting his deal and stuff is awesome but the best part of it is when Kanye talks about Dame Dash saying that if things sucked they would just throw Cam'ron on every track and make it work. Obie Trice's 'Cheers' is like that but replace Cam'Ron with Eminem.
I mean its not that Obie Trice sucks (I mean I guess he kinda does) but its pretty obvious he couldn't handle a whole album and never would be able to. So what did they do? They threw everything on it and made it great. This is like the last great thing that anyone not named Young Buck from Shady/G-Unit/Aftermath has done. Every song is either a beat done by a big name guy or has a big name guy on it. And they all work.
"The Set Up" might be the last great Dre beat and Nate Dogg hook. The "Outro" might just be the last Eminem verse thats been worth half a shit.
My boy Dan put this on a few weeks ago when we were headed down the shore and boy does it all hold up. Pretty sure none of these people will every top any of this but its pretty much the best album from Shady/G-Unit/Aftermath.
I will argue this with anyone soo yeah if you don't have this you should get it and if you have it collecting dust somewhere you should pop it back in.
