After the “Warning” intro, the primary track “Proper Cross” that includes Erick Sermon himself is a increase bap opener with each of them dropping hardcore lyricism collectively for a bit over 2 & a half minutes whereas “The Hook” suggests that everybody else ought to get on his degree of penmanship & I’d need to agree with him on it. “The Uppercut” is a soulful nearer to the EP speaking about everybody else being unable to match him lyrically & being a businessman versus merely an MC with true talent.
