Sermon seemed convinced that he didn't need his former business partner to record successful music, and financially he was correct, but most of these songs lack heat, as E Double simply coasts on his prior life instead of establishing a solo identity. While that is a valid point, my biggest issue with No Pressure is that it's about as engaging as the shittier songs in the former (current) duo's catalog, although it should be noted that this is not an album made up entirely of hip house garbage. FINAL THOUGHTS: Although it was fairly popular, Erick Sermon's No Pressure was criticized for sounding too much like another EPMD album.
