"Such a great collective piece of work. Hard to believe its only a mixtape... Real Cudi fans still consider it an album though. Standout tracks are Man on the Moon, The Prayer, Heaven at Nite, and Cleveland is the Reason."  Reply

"Johnny Flynn is wonderful, he is a real unknown gem. Friends with Laura Marling, personally i think he's more talented. His music is uplifting and tells a story. Go out and find this album, its a belter."  Reply

"This is sadly T.I.'s best work, after an excellent first half containing T.I's most popular and successful singles of his career (Live Your Life and Whatever You Like) not to mention boldly opening the album with a song with 56 solid bars without a chorus, the second half of the album just sucks...."  [+]  Reply
