Living Up to Expectations

Advantages: Some new tracks and consistency with quality throughout all albums
Disadvantages: Most tracks are older tracks

Great Album, with a couple of new songs on it, definately lives up to expectations, if you likes the previous albums by eminem then you'll love this because it has a lot of great tracks from other albums as well as several new ones including "when i'm gone". As well as some new remixes. Eminem has always been one of my most loved rappers and he continues to step up to the competion and destroy them on album sales. This is just what you would expect ...

What you gonna do when they come for you?

Advantages: Great acting, good onscreen relationships, great entertainment and very watchable
Disadvantages: Unrealistic story line but then it doesn't matter with this film

...and directed by Michael Bay Bad Boys was released in June 1995. ****Story Line**** Marcus Burnett (Martin Lawrence) and Mike Lowry (Will Smith) are partners in the Miami Police Department. Whilst Lowry is the ultimate ‘pimp’ who enjoys the playboy lifestyle of fast cars and even faster women, Burnett is the ‘traditional’ family man with a wife and 3 kids living the quiet suburbs. $100 million of heroin seized in the biggest drug bust of Burnett’s ...
...and the pair have 72 hours to get it back or potentially lose their jobs as the internal affairs division threaten to close down their division. Whilst Burnett and Lowry go on the trail of the prime suspect, Fouchet (Tcheky Karyo) a French drug baron, they ask a local prostitute they know, Maxine (Karen Alexander), to keep an eye out for any clues that could help them retrieve the drugs.

Review of Bad Boy's 10th Anniversary (The Hits/+DVD) - Various Artists

Freedom Album Great songs

Advantages: Great tunes with emotional vocals
Disadvantages: Some songs need mor work on them

...info about this album: Freedom is the third studio album by singer, Akon.The album was originally named Acquitted, however Akon changed it due to its negative connotation.It was released as a download on December 1, 2008, and in stores December 2, 2008. Freedom is the first album by Akon not to carry the Parental Advisory warning which showed signs of starting to advertise to a teen audience and it successfully worked although there is still rude ...
...will say the same. Freedom garnered mixed reviews by critics. Rolling Stone described Akon's third studio album as "melodrama about love and love lost delivered in a hooting style over synth-swamped beats." Dan Leroy of courant.com gave a positive review to the album, "Akon's undeniable gift for hooks makes this an easy listen, and the ex-con posturing isn't missed." Each song range from s style such from smooth ballads to to electro type based ...

Review of Freedom - Akon

Touch the sky with this great album!

Advantages: Very good album, lots of tracks
Disadvantages: Bring Me Down (featuring Brandy) - dont like it at all

...you can play piano. Late - This song has a very 80s feel to it if you ask me, lots of chipmunk style speeded up music (just think of Akon and you'll know what I mean) not my favourite but not terrible either. Not a bad end to the album. Overall I find the whole album very listenable and my least favourite song is Bring Me Down (featuring Brandy) as I don't feel it is heading in the same direction as the rest of the album. I like this album the ...

Review of Late Registration (Parental Advisory) [PA] - Kanye West

Clones is just nice beats, bad vocals

Advantages: Neptunes Production, A Couple of Decent Joints, ODB
Disadvantages: Commercial Artists and Songs, Terrible Rappers

...the past 2 years, the Neptunes team of Chad Hugo and Pharrell Williams have plagued the commercial music industry like cancer. Theyve produced a countless amount of hits for not only hip-hop artists, but have crossed over into R&B and pop and supplied their futurisitic beats for other artists in other genres. Both usually stand behind the boards, but Pharrell Williams has grown accustomed to singing hooks for acts such as The Clipse, Jay-Z, Snoop ...
...too commercial. Anyways, recently the Neptunes have released a compilation of new beats with the so-called "hottest" rappers out there, an album entitled Clones. Even though these guys are relatively good behind the boards, they dont bring anything new to the table and are extremely repetitive, not to mention their choice of rappers for this album is... in a word.. poor. The real name of this album shoud've been "The Neptunes Present... CRAP". Admittedly, ...
