Nifty lyrics, ultramodern instrumentals

"With the likes of Outkast, Cash Money, and Nappy Roots getting the majority of southern hip-hop's air-play, the duo innovators better known as Eightball and MJG, seem to be having trouble getting the respect they surely deserve. Space Age 4 Eva is a true work of art minus a couple of tracks and should have been a platinum album. The only problem is, it isn't the year 2015 yet. Two incredible emcees incredibly ahead of their time."

4.5 stars from the Memphis duo

"Off of Suave House, many thought they couldn't bring another tight album, but of the 6 group albums of their's I own this is my 2nd or 3rd favorite. They definitely show why they're one of the top 3 groups ever from the south (with UGK & Geto Boys). Of the 14 songs on here, 1 is a classic, the rest are listenable, most are good or great songs. Guests are minimal, rapping on only 2 songs and doing hooks on 3 so you get a good amount of the Memphis boyz. Production is great as well (other then maybe 2 songs) and like many said it sounds futureistic on some trax. MJG does 4 songs, Corey woodard & Jazze Pha each do 3, and DJ Quik & Swizz Beatz each do 2. A must have for their fans or for people who want to hear some real rappers from the south.
