I don't remember this album getting much critical acclaim and it probably went double cardboard, but it's another one of my personal favorites. Like it's predecessor, Murs 3:16, this album only goes ten songs deep, but each are crafted to near perfection thanks to Murs' charismatic storytelling and 9th Wonder's soulful production. A good example is the song "Dreamchaser", on which Murs weaves a precautionary tale about growing up in his neighborhood over a Willie Hutch sample flip that is one of my favorite instrumentals of all time. If you are into that kind of shit, I recommend both this and 3:16 to the fullest extent.
