Busta notably Government Produced the album alongside legendary heavyweights, Pharrell Williams, Timbaland, and Swizz Beatz. Locked and loaded with 19 tracks, it pops off as one other basic from the celebrated hip-hop juggernaut. Kicking issues off in fashion, he leads a lyrical masterclass on “THE STATEMENT.” From the soar, he exhales, “Whereas y’all exhibit, we present up.” He proceeds to “present up” with an incendiary verbal barrage punctuated by a promise, “We grinding a lot we ain’t ever complacent.” He maintains this momentum throughout “REMIND ‘EM”[feat. Quavo]. An introspective Huncho proclaims, “I give this shit as much as the Lord, amen,” as Busta stomps all around the siren-laden beat. Then, there’s “ROBOSHOTTA” [feat. Burna Boy]. The Afrobeats celebrity provides one other dimension to the album with a shocking look. Talking of different dimensions, “THE RETURN OF MANSA MUSA” [feat. Swizz Beatz& Blackway]” harks again to Michael Jackson’s “Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’” with an interpolation of its immediately recognizable chant as African percussion underlines Busta’s unpredictable cadence. “HOMAGE” [feat. Kodak Black] stays uncooked and relentless, whereas the finale “IF YOU DON’T KNOW NOW YOU KNOW PT. 2” [feat. Big Tigger] marks a full circle second. As piano twinkles within the background, Busta spits fact, “You gotta undergo love and hell, if you would like it to end up proper.”
