Anybody else really love the opening Intro? Fast forwarding through his life, from birth to his current day, using the backing music to set when each thing is happening? Absolutely genius. One thing I really miss about the old era of Hip Hop was the use of intro and interlude tracks like this to set the tone, before the album really kicked in or before a certain song. That said, the Fuck Me interlude is the most awkward thing in the world. The headphones I use most around the house leak sound and my wife was wondering what the fuck I was listening to.
