Decent. Still in an era of disco rappers and albums that don't have the rapping on every track. I mean like you couldn't make an album of just rap could you. This album may be better than others of the period as it doesn't have any "wack ass love joints", instead the album is poppy funky disco, slick but well produced. Enjoyable.
