This album is starting to grow on me, but I don't like the recycled verses on Gold Digger (18 Years from Def Poetry) and Bring Me Down (Wack Niggas). Also, Hey Mama was available long before College Dropout along with tracks like Dream Killers, Home, My Way, Heavy Hitters, Keep The Receipt, The Good The Bad and The Ugly, Wow, Livin' A Movie, Finally Got It Right (now called Whole Life), I Need To Know, Apologize, and many of the songs that ended up on Dropout. Late Registration is a good album and a breath of fresh air compared to shit like Jim Jones, Tony Yayo, Young Jeezy, Mike Jones, Slim Thug, Cassidy, Ying Yang Twins, and all the other bullshit that sells well. Thank god for albums from artists like Royce Da 5'9", Buckshot, and Sean Price this year. I am really looking forward to the full versions of AZ and Little Brother too.
