Street Hop Promo Photo Royce Da 5'9" - “Street Hop”

“Just bought a copy, I lost track of time. The album is decent, but my expectations were particularly high especially after 5'9" delivered devastating lines like: (1)"You don't believe in me, you're an atheist...", (2)"This bitch said, 'who the fuck died and made you God?'/ I said, 'Jesus'", (3)"Nigga, you testin' the one/nickel's second to none/I'm hotter than Texas/at three, I'm affecting the sun.", and (4)"If Kelly beat his case, my lawyer's gonna swallow mine." on one fuckin' song on a fuckin' mixtape. On this album, the hard hitting pervasive lines were few and far in between. My favorite song lyrically was probably Gun Harmonizing (ft. Crooked I) and my favorite song overall was "Far Away" (the production was too smooth and it complimented 5'9"'s flow).”

Sickology 101 Promo Photo Tech N9ne - “Sickology 101”

“Gdamn Tech, this has to be one of my favorite albums. It's littered with hot production (those sub-pleasing beats.) and sick verses. I believe every album has that one crap track, but *sniff sniff*, there's no trace of that here. I can't believe how nice this album was...man o man. In my top (no specific order because with this latest album, it just makes things so difficult), no doubt. This is one of those close your fuckin eyes and just pick a song as a single...IT'S THAT GOOD!!! I implore you guys to buy this shit. No, now. Go! This is PEER PRESSURE!!! *While listening to "Sorry-N-Shit"* WOO-WEEEEEEE, but overall, I give it 6 stars out of 5.”

In A Perfect World Promo Photo Keri Hilson - “In A Perfect World”

“Decent album better than most and Timbaland and Keri equate for some of the hottest tracks (the actually concept in the song may be stupid, but it doesn't even matter).”

Don't Feed The Animals Promo Photo Gorilla Zoe - “Don't Feed The Animals”

“Solid Production. Also, I enjoyed Gorilla Zoe on Autotune, strange enough, it did not annoy me. For example, in the song "I Got It", it actually complimented the piano segment in the background making the song hot. I enjoyed this album, not a classic, but a definite banger. 4.5 stars out of 5”
