Almost exactly two years later, Murs & 9th Wonder release their second collaborative studio album. The two boys don't change their formula or the structure of the product, ten songs, about half an hour of listening, no skits, guests from the inner circle of Little Brother (Rapper Big Pooh, Joe Scudda). The Winston-Salem producer carves rhythms from soul and rnb samples, giving life to an unmissable half hour for fans of the chipmunk soul sound popularized by Jay-Z and Kanye in the early 2000s, even if aesthetes and specialists might notice the watered-down cherry flavor that this set of beats retains. The LA rapper Murs has never been in the fan's books as an all-time favorite, and if you don't know him, he might seem like a generic MC; here, he's not particularly surprising, but in fact, Nick Carter doesn't even disappoint, he boasts a competent and organic style, and he's quite fit with the liquid sound solution chosen by 9th Wonder. Released under the Record Collection, the effort is praised by critics, although it receives some less applause than the previous one, on the other hand, it improves in commercial results, entering several Billboard charts. In general, the LP sounds similar to the debut, where the two brought their respective best material. Not essential, 7/10.
