Did somebody say “gospel”? Let me grab my tambourine! Naw, seriously, I hope that this album is good because Rising Down was a disappointment. There’s only two good songs on that album, “Rising Up” and “Criminal”. Everything else is just aight. (Sorry for my belated album review some 12 months later) Good dish, Dahntay Jones! (Y’all look alike)
Good call on the Dahntay Jones…I hope my career turns out better than his. Its tough for them to live up to Things Fall Apart. I agree rising down was lame.
