Guilt: Thought provoking lyrics, Mims drops some reality. Nice start explaining the album's title.
The Skit: Unnecessary skit that has a hater talking down about Mims and a supporter of Mims. The hater drops some funny disses "This is why I'm room temperature......Mims? Mims stands for Malfunction In Music Seriously!"
On & On: Aimed at the haters, the track has a smooth vibe and Mims sounds alright.
Love Rollercoaster: Fresh lady joint that has LeToya dropping a catchy hook. Mims flows well over the smooth beat.
Move (If You Wanna): Slowed hook and knocking percussion. Similar to "A Millie" in terms of rhyme style, a little corny, decent banger though.
One Day: Mims joins the group of rappers that croon and sings this whole song with a reggae tinge from his Jamaican roots. Ky-Mani Marley adds some real reggae touch, decent.
Chasing Sunshine: Nice track, Mims really has found his persona as a rapper.
Rock 'N Rollin': Jim Jonsin produced, a bit disappointing. Mims name drops various rock bands and goes for a emo delivery similar to how Lil' Wayne did on "Shoot Me Down". Tech N9ne murders it.
Be My Hustla: Overly synthy and Holiday's hook is merely luke warm.
Makin' Money: Filler with poor production, skipper.
In My Life (Why Oh Why): Repetitive hook, decent so far.
One Last Kiss: Decent, similar sounding to "Chasing Sunshine".
Heal Me (Outro): Fitting outro that has some truth from Mims.
I Do: Nice & Smooth join Mims for a piano twinkling production.
So far it sounds alright. Mims first album was a bit of a mess for me and while he knocked out some tracks, he sounded out of place on others. Here he goes for less of a hard rap style and more of a pop or alternative style, collaborating with interesting guests and having rock hooks. Diversity is a good thing for Mims, he sounds better on these beats, but I'll have to listen more and see if there's any substance.
