Released by Siccness, like the last one by Sigel. After the previous efforts, it seems that Beanie Sigel & Freeway have exhausted their ideas and have settled into the soft muffled hammock of clichés. Most of the production is offered by State Property, which however is not a producer and the group does not produce this record. Then, what is this? It's not understandable. Batkave catches some good beats, Main Event West (who?) provides the best here ("Under Attack"), the rest of the production are often bad and the lyrics are watered-down. One of the few things of note on this almost illegitimate record is "Average Cat", Beans' solo dissing against is former friend Jay-Z, over the same beat of "The Blueprint 3"'s "What We Talkin’ About" with a sample by Prodigy straight from "Front Lines (Hell on Earth)". Sigel closes this album angrily in "Flatline" but can't save it from the garbage. The product somehow manages to make it to the charts, driven by the success of the dissing that gets airplay specially in Philadelphia, entering the top sixty places among rap records. The disc is weak, cheap, poor, all very random and cheap, with several low points, the two ex State Property guys are at their worst on a bad production and are never helped by guests such as Young Chris (five appearances), State Property, Wale and Jakk Frost. Don't listen, 3/10.
