    Some in the back half. "Poor Lil Rich." "Like My Style." "Don't Push Me." Album would be exponentially better if you put some more street songs from the 02 sessions in there.

    Top-ten all-time album title tho

    I've seen arguments for both sides regarding how high this album should be held. I myself do consider it a classic album. As far as how it's aged, it's hard to say. I'm re-listening to it now and enjoying doing so but I also haven't heard the album in full in a long time now.

    How has it aged for some of you?

    My two favorites:
