![]() Key track in this environment is the "Get yours, get mine, just don't stop my grind" anthem "That's All I Know," where Akon provides the memorable hook, Beanie gripes about Rick Ross while dropping a Tony Danza/Who's the Boss reference, and the ghetto is painted as a lively, boisterous carnival. Regardless of the charge, this sharp and inspired album is further proof that Beanie feeds on that hard-time-coming pressure, but he's more in the Wesley Snipes zone than Pablo Escobar territory here, and that glorious, urban dream depicted on the cover comes right through the speakers. ![]() Big difference is that last time out, it was year and a day on federal weapons charges (gangster stuff, and at a fed level), while this time its two years for failing to file taxes on his one-million-plus income (flossy and fed, but not so gangster). Like his key effort The Reason (2005), This Time is another pre-prison album from Beanie Sigel.
