Returning to X-Raided after his last ablum under Nefarious, Raided puts together a much better album than his last, "Speak of the Devil." This album has lots of good tracks, but once again lacks many guests. There are seven really good tracks on this album. "Write What I See" has a good beat and lyrics. "Hold On" tells the story of Raided's dreams before prison and then his life during incarceration. "Who But Me" has a good bass and lyrics. "Kamikaze" featuring Luni Coleone has a good beat and good lyrics. "Post War Syndrome" has a very good bass to it and good background affects. "We Bang" is a remix of "Write What I See," but is an extended version with different lyrics. Overall this album is a large improvement over "Speak of the Devil." There are much better lyrics, beats, and an overall improvement in Raided's voice quality. Once again the only thing that it lacks is guests appearances. Although the track with Luni Coleone is very good. Quality over quantity I guess. Either way this album ranks up with Raided's best. He shows at lot more emotion in his lyrics on this album and shows more of his life in the pen. A great album overall and a must get even for non Raided fans.
