The thing about Elzhi in my opinion is that he doesn't sound like anyone else. He his own thing going on with his pen game. Great review fellas . - BMG New Orleans

Elzhi, one of the best yet. Album is just so smooth. Only downside, and very minor at that, is that I truly hope he will make at least one more truly epic sounding hip hop record, in vein of The Preface. Nothing wrong with with last couple records, but beats more put the emphasis on Elzhis lyrics. Elzhi has all the ingridients and connections to put out an alltime classic

I think what holds Elzhi back is that there isn't a distinct personality or flare to him that makes him standout. I think people would think of him more and like him more if there was more of a personality connection. Lyrically tho, he is absolutely one of the best ever.
