      So, my copy has an incorrect matrix runout that has been crossed out with a little "oops!" beside it, then the proper runout written beside it.

        One of the best hip-hop albums of all time, period! Can't believe it's been 11 years since it was released, feels like yesterday.

        This album is like fine wine, you know the rest!
