vanrieman's TOP ALBUMS

“Most definitely the best release of the year. You have to give Adventures over 4 Spins, maybe not an absolute classic but pretty damn close”

“BoBs mixtapes are killing it, if he puts out music this good for free I cant even imagine how awesome his debut album is gonna be.”

“Ill agree with you in the fact that if youre from Memphis youre gonna love this shit. Since it dropped this mixtape has been blasted up and down the streets of Memphis. Me personally, have been doing the same, it has some weak points, but definitely overshined by big tracks on CM4. Cant wait for Live From the Kitchen.”

“Like everyone else I have been waiting forever for this album to come out and most albums I build up so high end up being less than amazing but this is amazing, hands down. Of course this was not gonna be another Lord Willin or Hell Hath but like joshL said, this is very much my style. I also agree where Nathan said the singles are the weak point. Nonetheless Til the Casket Drops is amond the best albums I have heard this year. And I have been waiting years for Clipse to do a track with Gotti, and Showing Out delivers. Cop this album 4.5/5”

“If Ice and Rain, the Letter, Family Affair were on this album it would have been so much closer to a classic disc. Nonetheless, Attention Deficit is good, no great, and Wale is the future.”

“Great debut album, but I think that A Kid Called Cudi was almost a better release. Nevertheless awesome and nevertheless epic when youre high. A great album for Cudi, hes gonna blow.”

“So because of the overkill of praise from DJBooth, I decided to pick up this album. Ive heard some of N9nes earlier work and I liked it, just never heard much else from him. I played this album and by the second track all I could say was wow. Every song- the lyrics, the production, everything is straight bangin. I love this shit. And as far as the guest features go... the ones Ive heard and the artists Ive never heard before, they all brought more and more heat, each trying to outdo each other in speed, lyricism, wittiness(sp?) and their deliveries. This CD is straight killin. One of the best rap albums Ive heard in a good long while.”

“Very cool album, I like the feel of it.”

“Perfect review.”

“CD was banging. I agree its not groundbreaking, more like an Epiphany II, but nevertheless Ill be playing that shit.”

“This album is no doubt in the top albums of the year. After TI vs TIP I was kinda disappointed, but this is straight classic. Dead and Gone is also up in my favorite TI songs of all time. No doubt, this is nothing less than illy.”
