Moments Worth Listening For

The heavy, distorted bass drop on 'Like a Boy' that shifts the track's entire gravity.

The transition from the 'Evolution of Music' interlude into the syrupy, slowed-down pulse of 'Promise'.

Lil Jon's abrasive ad-libs cutting through the sleek, metallic synth lines of 'That's Right'.
