"NORFEEST is right .khrysis did a good job all the beats are awesome but sean needs to improve his rap .it 's so simple.,i really like the flow on UPNATEM ,shinning and the track with smith and wessun however ,in the other tracks he screwed up a lil bit, like some of the justus league members they got good beats and lyrics ,but they don t convince by the flow, so simple .they need to be versatile in the flow and sharp in the rhymes.if pharoahe or smooth da hustler or ill bill or planet asia .....rap over 9th or khrysis beats ...............................u know what i mean (high level of hip hop)"

Excellent Production, But..... (3.5 Stars)

"Hmmm....what can I say, as far as beats go, this is one of the best albums released by the Justus League camp. Khrysis is an awesome producer, but Sean Boog needs to become more consistent. There are too many tracks where Boog is either:



a) kicking suspect rhymes

b) being blown away by the guest contributors, or

c) both



That's the only shortcoming I can think of. The production is great (with the exception of the disjointed "Always Be Around" which is actually saved by Boog's good subject matter).



There are moments where Boog steps up his rhyme scheme and delivers some good material. On tracks like "F*ck You", "Always Be Around", "One N Only" and "The Shining", Boog does a better job of showcasing his talents. It's moments like this that make the album worth checking out. It makes me wonder why he doesn't rhyme like this on the entire album.



The Away Team does show some potential. Khrysis is doing a great job of creating his own niche and stepping out from behind the huge shadow of 9th Wonder. With that being said, the X factor is Sean Boog. He'll have to step up his rhyme scheme and become more consistent in order for this group to reach the next level because it takes more than just energy to become a dope MC.



Standout Tracks: F*ck You, Come On Down feat. Smif N Wesson, The Shining, Likka Hi (Last Call), Make it Hot feat. Phonte & Joe Scudda (My Favorite), The Blah Blah, and UpNAtem"

"The away team sean boog and khrysis hits u hard with a Dope hiphop album thats both ILL and FUN to listen too. The beats is Crazy all the way though and sean boog basic rhymes but good delivery holds his own and flows well. GET every Justus League Album u can right now, cause they hungry right now. DONT WAIT to the money starts flowing in and they blow up world wide, cause then the Material will get soft and CLUBBIE. THIS is the time to get all they classic albums hall of justus releases while they STILL HUNGRY and CLASSIC motivated. peace."
