Blue Slide Park first thoughts

As I listened to Blue Slide Park all the way through for the first time today I wasn't sure what i exactly thought. I had hoped that Mac hadn't fallen into the trap of releasing all the best songs prior to the actual release of the album. While I think that the best song was released prior to the ,"Frick Park Market," I believe that he did a good job of saving some gems for the actual release. "Up All Night" and "My Team" are some of my favs after my initial listen through. The best thing about the album is that there aren't any duds on it at all, I believe I will listen to every song on this album for quite some time. I was worried that he might go the route of Wiz Khalifa and sell out by losing his original sound that gained him all his fans with his first album, but he didn't do that at all, this is the same Mac since KIDS and the High Life, which is what all the true fans were looking for. Overall my initial impression is that this is a great CD and Mac is here to stay.
