Not really dopeReviewed by Nkeketu from Gauteng on 01 September 2003

As it now, while the beats are good to dope, the delivery and lyrics are pretty tired. Red and Meth, both coming off lackluster albums (although I thought "Doc's The Name" was the better of the two, personally) don't sound inspired, hungry, angry, anything. They just sound bombed out of their mind and anxious to crack the next bag open. This does not a good album make. That doesn't count the cover of "Mic Checka" that they rename "Cheka." Not to dog Das EFX, because that song was dope, but I don't think it's worthy of a remake. That and these cats don't do it any better than Das did, which basically makes it pointless. There's about one instant of straight bitery for almost every song. It's kinda frustrating that these cats, usually so creative, are just laying back, churning out product instead of crafting their s*** carefully. It just adds to the laziness that I believe that this album was recorded with. Like it was:
"Yo, I don't feel like recordin no more s*** today."
"Yo, neither do I."
"You wanna get a f***** pound?"
"F*** yeah. We'll just stick some s*** from our old albums on there to fill the s*** out."
"Dope."
These two cats used to be guaranteed dope. Not anymore.
