Undoubtably the best album presented in the last decade, hands down. The themes of racial prejudice with tracks like "The Blacker The Berry", feeding into vices and insecurities with "u" and other themes of being used to an advantage by higher powers such as recording labels and political figures, have been executed absolutely amazingly and have been paired beautifully with funk-pop/hip-hop instrumentals. Constructed gorgeously! My favorite album of all time.
