Advantages: Great lyrics, top beats, real real deep
Disadvantages: Bit depressing, not very sociable music

Well I heard about this guy from a friend whos a big hip hop fan, said i'd love it. He couldn't have been more correct. This album is consistant fire! Every bar has had so much thought put into it, every verse is on point. This guy, Immortal Technique, is from Peru, lived in Harlem all his life and has got a lot of tension bagged up inside, mainly political, but a lot of the lyrics seem to be against the music industry/the people around him. In the ...
...deserves the attention. 1. Revolutionary- just an intro, nothing special 2. Point of Now Return-great start to an album, very heavy song, great beat 3. Peruvian Cocaine-brilliant tune about the cocaine industry and the life of those that harvest the stuff... 4. Harlem Streets-you think the run of two hot hot hot tunes must end, very deep lyrics and a very hot beat. Powerful messages and metaphors 5. Obnoxious-Really quite comical song, shows ...

Advantages: amazing history behind the songs and great music.
Disadvantages: none at all.

This cd in my opinion was a great turing point in eminems career. This cd changed him from fame to super stardum. In this cd he attacks everyone who critersized his first album "the slim shady lp" and famously his ex wife Kim and his mum. The fact that he has chosen to use his real name for the title of this his seccond album shows that this album is alot more personal to him. This album is alot darker than his first as the only upbeat song there ...
...the only reason he wrote this was to have a radio friendly song on the album. This album reached number one on the charts; billbord 200, top R'n'B/hip-hop albums, top canadian albums and top internet albums. This cd was a beak through in rap and has continued to be sucsessful even to this day. The only content significantly edited were offensive and violent parts that were aimed at police, women, homosexuals, and schools such as columbine and even ... Read review

Advantages: All the dance tracks are of the highest quality
Disadvantages: Lyrics aren't the best

...1. Intro 2. Beat'n Down Yo Block I felt that there were similarities between this track and others which artists from the region have come out with. The closest track to it for me is Jibbs' "King Kong", as these both refer to the booming sound which their cars make as they enter a neighbourhood. I felt that it was a good way to introduce the album as Unk tells you that the LP should be played so the whole street can hear it. **Four Stars** 3. ...
...heard from Unk, way back in 2006, and as I had just got into the Snap form of rap after hearing a little Soulja Boy and Dem Franchize Boyz, this played up to exactly what I wanted to here; a big dance track from Atlanta. it seems as though if you make a dance rap track in any of the big southern cities of the US, and accomplany it with an actual dance; , you are bound to do well. This is the case with this track as it blew up the clubs in the Dirty ... Read review

Advantages: Amazing!
Disadvantages: ...

I love the Ying Yang twins and this album is yet another success. The songs are a mixture of hip hop and gangster rap. Thier very distinctive voices make them different to other artists of the same genre. 'Dangerous' was the first song released from this album and my all time favourite, It features the vocal talent of Wyclef Jean. The subject of their songs are mainly strippers and women therefore there is some bad launguage although i believe you ... Read review

Advantages: A couple of nice R&B tracks
Disadvantages: Sounds manufactured

"The ATL Project" is the debut album from the R&B group ATL. Trè, Will, L-Rock, Danger came together in a local talent search in Atlanta, Georgia, the name of this contest is the reason for the choice in the title for the album, and their name comes from the city where they are all based. Despite the contest spanning only as far as this one city in the south of the US, their sound mangaged to reach out to the UK and even get the a top 25 single. ...
...4. Let Me ATL performs this well-written love song to come out with some nice reults. I thought that although the lyrics were nice and thought-provoking, the opening for it was far too similar to K-Ci & Jjo's "All my Life", and as that is my favourite R&B ballard I don't really like anyting which attmpts to rip aspects from it. **Three Stars** 5. It's Us (feat. Ciara) I thought that this track let the group down quite considerably as apart from ... Read review
