1. They Don't Really Know About Dro--hot beat, Dro shows some potential, a few clever lines, better than expected start to the album 4/5

2. Man In The Trunk--Nitti is coming up fast as one of the top Southern producers, he laces one of the hottest beats I've heard all year, Dro is starting to assert himself lyrically, fire track 5/5

3. Presidential--a strange sounding flute powered beat, Dro falls flat trying to stay on top of it, some people might like this one, it didnt do much for me 2/5

4. Shoulder Lean f/ T.I.--we've all heard this one, pretty enjoyable party joint, if you ask me, I aint mad at this one 4/5

5. U Don't See Me f/ Slim Thug--Jazze Pha makes his appearance, as apparently some law was passed saying no one could make an album without him, not too bad of a song, Slim Thug kills Young Dro on it, though 3/5

6. Rubberband Banks--this has bubbling for a while on the mixtape scene, bouncy beat and a catchy refrain, one of those songs that gets stuck in your head 4/5

7. We Lied--boring cliche Southern joint, not really anything to listen to, plus for some reason he's singing on it 1/5

8. My Girl f/ T.I.--an ode to the menage a trois, T.I. kills it, this needs to be the new single if Grand Hustle's smart 4/5

9. 100 Yard Dash f/ Xtaci--hot beat wasted on this attempt to cultivate Xtaci as the next one up, the bitch sucks though, she always has 2/5

10. Hear Me Cry--you're not allowed to make an album without a song where you pretend you care and be all emotional, terrible song, another hot beat goes to waste 2/5

11. Gangsta--of course, this track has a chopped and screwed hook, not too bad of a song, but Dro's lyrics are not on point, could have used a guest appearance here 2/5

12. High Five--Dro spits about bringing the high five back over some shit that will bang in the clubs, hot joint 3/5

13. Fresh f/ Jazze Pha--if you've listened to any album released below the Mason-Dixon line, you've heard this song 1,000 times, Jazze doesnt switch it up much 1/5

14. What It Is--Jazze Pha laces this one, he doesnt even open the track by saying anything annoying, he lets some girl do it, he needs to stay with that from now on, Dro sounds nice on this track 3/5

15. It Ain't Over-Dro closes the album with a banger, hard Southern beat, he goes back to spitting his foods and colors metaphors 3/5


Overall=3/5

I know 3/5 seems high, but this album really took me by surprise, the beats were on point for the majority of the album and Dro can spit on occasion, if you're into Southern rap at all, peep it
