Though Category F5 has yet to bring Twista the rave reviews he’d been hoping for, nearly every critic has cited the rapper’s reunion with The Legendary Traxster as yielding the album’s best tracks. On Alright, Twista rejoins forces with another early collaborator, the man who helped bring him back into the heavyweight class after a seven-year absence. That’s right: the triple-time rhymer is back collaborating with Kanye for the first time since smash hit Overnight Celebrity yielded a platinum plaque. The two engage in some hip-hop muscle-flexing over a piano synth-beat co-produced by Ye and fellow Chicagoan, No I.D.. Fans will doubtless be wondering where they can get a copy of this cut, not included on Category F5‘s physical release. To do that, you need go no further than iTunes—a fitting venue for this technologically advanced display of vocalistic cataclysms (now he’s got me doing it!)

I understand the purpose behind gems as iTunes bonus tracks, but this is better than 90% of the records on the actual physical album. The production is illy.

This is GREAT, haven't listened to the rest of the album yet, but I was encouraged to download the album right after hearing this. Sick production and Twista and Kanye flow great together on this.

This song is crack. By far my second fav song on the album. Wetter is the one, but this is a close second. Kanye is a magician behind the boards and the mic. BRAVO

Great production from No I.D. & Kanye and a couple of good verses from both Kanye & Twista. There really should of been some more production from Kanye & No I.D. on Category F5.

This song is easily the best on the album but there are still other solid songs on Category F5. I actually like the chorus..it sounds good with the drums. Kanye is dope with the lyrics and Twista's fast flow is hot! Banger!

From the airy static synths to the ethereal piano loop, to the fast-pounding bass that drives it along, the beat is just really something special ... And kanye never disappoints with his rhymes and As usual Twista kicks down the door with a rapid fire flow ...
The problem is that they repeat title too many times for my liking. This song and “Wetter” are pretty @*#$! dope but as for the rest of Category F5, its just like the title of this track ... alright. |

@EtanClan: I'm sorry fam, but you'll be very disappointed! The album is nowhere as good as this.
So the 2 best songs off Category F5 (Alright and Problems) are not actually on it?! -_-' Major fail! This is better than any song on the album, period! Production is amazingly fresh, the melodies are addictive (that piano could go on repeating all day long), that 808&Heartbreak;'s style of percussion is dope! Kanye and Twista flow perfectly! |

I love how Twista and Kanye's vibes work together. This track is a success. I love the samples, especially the piano, and the snares are pretty sick. Kanye spits a cool opening verse, and Twista just sounds cool over Kanye's drums and jazzy samples.

Alright! Alright already! Damn! May I get more Kanye please? And you can drop that static. I have NO IDEA what this song's rating should be. I think I'm going to give it a chance to grow on me. Kanye is totally one of my fav 2. idk

For the ones that dont know.
"ALRIGHT" didnt make the album because Kanye didnt finish mixing it on time for the deadline. Simple as that. FOr those that posses the good ear, you could actually hear it in the mixing that teh track is not finalized to it's full potential AS HOT AS IT IS. SICK. They NEED TO DO AN ALBUM TOGETEHR. CHi towns finest. |

It is definantly a banger but I think Yeezy sampled this from somewhere. I just feel like I've heard this beat from somewhere.

Lovin' it. I was starting to avoid the names "Kanye" and "Wayne" but at least Kanye is coming back. He definately hits hard here. Twista...don't know why but his blazingly fast lyrics seem to sound good no matter what. He could probably spit nonsense and I would be a fan. As long as the garbage rhymed =].
