Even the hack 'game needs me'-styled opener is welcome as the rapper forces 'Waiting' out of his hoarse throat like it was gravel, and after 'What I Do' does something infectious and incredible with an economic hook and a Drumma Boy beat, the bold 'OJ' comes along filled with iffy metaphors and a trailer load of controversy. These minor complaints will matter little to returning fans as their needs are put first with the front half of album rolling like a steamroller fueled by grind-time anthems. This unforgiving return to form doesn’t suffer from being over-thought and it’s not even overwrought, but it is overstuffed at 14 tracks (make that 18 for the deluxe version) and the most welcoming moments are pushed to the back (the 'F.A.M.E.'/'I Do'/'Higher Learning' sequence is like a trap music glitter dome with Jay-Z, André 3000, T.I., and Snoop Dogg all on the guest list). Add a paradigm shift in hip-hop radio, where the introspection of Drake and Kid Cudi found favor over Jeezy and T.I.'s extroverted pusher music, then top if off with a slew of missed released dates and the whole thing stinks of a setup, which is why any fond appreciation of TM:103 must come from the 'warts and all' department. After releasing The Recession in 2008, Young Jeezy suffered his own three-year layoff due to legal problems and a fight with the crippling disease Bell's palsy.
