I had my reservations and don't usually listen to reviews but, yours seems to come from a point of genuine love and knowledge of hip-hop. I agree with you that I would want to be pulled back to the glory days, if it's not going to do that, I'll wait til it hits HBO and I'm hung over! Thanks for saving me the money!
