評点(rating)		（5点満点 fullmark :5）
Pimp Cが入所していたため久しぶりになってしまったサウスの大御所UGKの5作目。2007/12に帰らぬ人となってしまった、そのPimp Cにとっての現時点の遺作でもある。そんな悲しいエピソードはさておき、近年非常に多くリリースされるサウスのアルバムとしても突出したアルバムとなっている。実力者２人の作るアルバムだけであって、安定感があるのは当たり前として、ファンクネス、ソウルネスを強力に発するトラックが多いのが特徴。サウスらしさを基調にしつつもGuestを招いた西東への敬意も忘れずに、業界をまとめあげつつ、新たな方向性を示しているようにも感じる。2枚組ながら、飽きを感じさせない作品であり、この2人の新たな創造を２度と味わうことができないのは残念で仕方ない。
