Best Of Slim Harpo, The - Slim Harpo

Advantages: Consistent quality
Disadvantages: A couple of fillers

..."Already Platinum" is the debut solo album from the Houston rap artist, Slim Thug. This came out in 2005, following his signing to Pharrell Williams' record company, Star Trak, and so despite the fact that the styles contrast so heavily, you get this Gangsta Rap perfromer do what he does on some Netunes beats. To most, the artist is most well-known for his collaboration with Gwen Stefani on "Luxurious" and with Beyonce's "Check On It". 1. "The Intro" (Intro) 2. "Like A Boss" I originally heard this one on the Madden 2006 soundtrack, and it reinforced my liking for his music. On it, you have The Neptunes attempt their best at a Gangsta Rap beat as they comt up with heavy, bassy synth, which gives Slim the best foundations for him to then build upon with raps. **Four Stars** 3. "3 Kings" This was the track, following... Read review

Advantages: Great production, great lyrics
Disadvantages: Explicit, but it depends on how easily you are offended!

...The Slim Shady album is one of the best albums I have heard. Eminem's second album (after his debut one, Infinite) is excellent. With 20 tracks, there is a track to listen to for every type of mood that you are in! His talent is just so apparent. The special edition version has 3 extra songs on another c-d (2 freestyles) and a c-d rom element. I bought the Slim Shady lp after his most recent one, Marshall Mathers and so my expectations were high because I loved the Marshall Mathers lp. I was so impressed, it was not a let down. I can't stop listening to it, it is permanantely in my c-d player! My favourite tracks are Just Don't Give A F**k, Still Don't Give A F**k, Rock Bottom and As The World Turns. The lyrics on every track are amazing as is the production. The lyrics are so clever, and some reflect his past. Slim said that he... Read review

Advantages: All the classics and bonus dvd!
Disadvantages: A phew bad songs unfortunatley

...I have owend this great album for a while now and its great, there are some good and bad things about it. l'll start with the advantages, it has great songs, all the classics, it includes a bonus dvd with a list of 10 song videos by fat boy slim, including a best seller, ' Ya Mama '. But now unfortunatley to the negatives, the are songs on the album which are not the sort of songs you would want playing outloud when driving in your car, unless you have tinted windows, some very bad songs have been added so that it can be classed as an album, but then again the rest of the songs are soo good it all equals out! Personally i love it, it has all my favorite fatboy slim songs on it. if you are one of the Fat Boy Slim loving fans then i strongly recomend this one for you lot out there, you cant go wrong with this one....
