still in the wrapper and I gotta listen to it sometime today. I just brought on Saturday... I know it's gonna be good even if it probably doesn't trump Be or Like Water For Chocolate.

I just got to So Far 2 Go which is an enjoyable track...lovin D's vocal input. This album is different than Be so far. I think these ones gotta grow a lil bit more on me. "The People" is my shit..."Drivin me Wild" "U, Black Maybe" r standouts 2 me also. Im liking "Break My Heart" although it seems like something put together @ the last minute...the chorus sample is good though.

I like it. Sounds pretty consistent moreso than Be. The People, Drivin’ Me Wild, U Black Maybe, Break My Heart, I absolutely loathe Kanye’s vocals on Southside but the rest of the album overshadows it.
Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off

Although Resurrection is my favorite, I'd say LWFC is his most consistent effort to date.
