Youngstown Heist featuring Trife da God, Sheek Louch, and Bully

Overall grade:
A-

I can't give it the "A' or "A+" because of how short it is. At the same time, it's a VERY good album. The Wu-Tang trio brought it back to the old school with those original beats and Stat Island underground flow. They didn't feature many other artists, which to me is good so that listeners can focus on the comeback of these three, rather than other artists. This is a definite must have for any real hip-hop lover, go cop it!

I've seen this UNI squad play a few times this season and they're no joke. They played a pretty tough schedule this season, and they showed it by defeating a very tough team in UNLV from a tough conference in the Mountain West. They can shoot the rock with the best of 'em. They also have a huge post presence in Jordan Egelseder (7', 280lbs) who averages 12 points and 7.5 rebs per. Don't sleep on this team, Kansas will have their hands full.
