I'm a Ross fan and I say it was easily his worst work with the least replay value. I believe he can come back tho, but I dont think his sales will ever be as solid seeing how finicky hip hop is and how long the average rapper's prime is. Ross has been above average with his six five year peak..
-
good, but not as good as anticipated
-
btw I'm glad my bro @genocidecutter has become the more respectable threadstarters in the reason. Great presentation bruh. Keep this ? up.

-
I remember firmly stating that he would still not be a platinum artist and I stand affirmed
-
it was cool. could had been way better. his last couple verses and tracks been hot tho.
-
Forgettable.
Pirates is tough as hell though. -
-
Loved 3 kings idk why it got hate, maybe cuz jay is on it.
-
That Jay verse is very playful .. .
? looked liked he blazed a spliff before spitting that ? -
Started dope fell off when I listened to two identical tracks back to back
-
Mercury records?
-
Dope album ten jesus piece is one of ross's best songs
-
I was dissapointed initially because I have high expectations for Ross but I ? with the album even though it's one of his weaker efforts.
