As soon as you turn this joint on, “Lean Beef Patty,” hits your ears, and you’re not sure if you accidentally hit a button on your keyboard or something, but its uniqueness draws you in.

The titular song of the album, “Scaring the Hoes” might be one of the greatest beats I’ve ever heard in my life on a fundamental level.
