XLR8R

When Consequence got down on Tribe's Beats, Rhymes & Life, everyone thought he was destined for greatness, but years later, this is his first legitimate solo effort. Although both tracks feature Kanye West beats, "Turn Yaself In" languishes somewhere between soul and hip-hop, while "Yard 2 Yard" finds Cons and Rhymefest spitting pure fire. "Bitch Rider," produced by J-Blast, is also a knocker, with beefy drums and a nice sitar loop.
