From my one cursory listen, it's not very good. Needless to say, Drake makes an appearance.

album is solid. the Drake song is by far the worst but the rest is pretty vintage Pimp C with guests he usually guested with while he was alive. even the production was very in line with what he mighta done if he himself produced it.

I accidentally e-mailed one of the principals of the company his obit and his response was "sorry for your loss"

Sounds too much like a posthumous album, rapping doesn't fit with beats.

"even the production was very in line with what he mighta done if he himself produced it."

Huh ? not really.

you sure you heard the right album? the latter point I can see questioning, but I didn't see any of the former at all

as far as the production other than a few 'clubby synthy' tracks, a lot of it was some of that Texas soul'n'funk that he liked.

the drake track, "since the 90's", "midnight", "hit the parkig lot", "colors" & even "massacre" are not really close to pimp's production style. That's half of the songs.

they're not note perfect but they're not that off in left field, some of them sound like what the guest producers did on the Underground Kingz album. they fit his style to me, *shrug*, it's not like the case of Bun B imo
