A few tracks don’t fit into the overall sound of the album
The flow of the album could be better

Summary:

In case you’re living under a rock, Peter Jackson recently put out his first official album In My Life. This album features artists like Choclair, Royce 5’9”, Joell Ortiz, and Jessica Sheppered with production by Classified, Young K, T-Minus, and DJ Sluv. As a fan, you really get to know PJ better throughout the album. The lyrics really take you on a road of highs, to lows and everything in-between. In all honesty, I haven’t heard an album with a structure like this a very long time and it sounds refreshing. PJ has shown us time after time that he is willing to take his music to the next level, and that’s exactly what he did on this album. Great work Mr. Jackson.

The Big Mouths:

4 Big Mouths out of 5, I think some songs didn’t fit into the big picture on this album. But in hip-hop today it’s hard to please everyone. Overall this album is fantastic and anyone who is a true fan of Canadian hip-hop will love (if not respect) this album.
