Jus Smith and producer Dre Tha Oneda come through with a rock-solid project that carries serious replay value. Front to back, there’s zero skips—this is a work of art that captures the true-school spirit without ever sounding stuck in the past.

Off rip, joints like “Velvet Robes & Wallys,” “All Praises to Rich Carter,” and “Uber Transportation” stand out heavy, but truth be told, there are gems sprinkled all throughout the album. The overall tone strikes a rare balance: it’s fun, it’s gritty, and it leaves you with a lowkey intoxicating vibe that’s hard to shake.

f you’re one of those heads always saying there’s nothing new worth spinning, consider this your alley-oop. Real ones know—you just gotta dig a little.

Score: 8.6/10
