Out There With Betty Carter - Betty Carter

Advantages: A few bangers
Disadvantages: He doesn't pay attention to rhyming on occasions

...'s true. So as you can imagine, Jay-Z (the other "Mr. Carter") shows him up once he comes in. **Two Stars** 3. "A Milli" (feat. Cory Gunz) This one uses a the perfect freestyle hook which has "A Milli" running through it, meaning that there's no chorus and Weezy is just able to flow his way through the track witout any breaks, and it apears that he just doesn't have any limits when you hear something like this from him. Cory Gunz, who features in this one is the son of Peter Gunz, part of the duo Lord Tariq & Peter Gunz, who brought "Deja Vu" back in 1998, showing the music run in the family, and I really liked what he came with, encouraging me to see what he does as a solo artist, and Cory is someone to look out for in the future. **Five Stars** 4. "Got Money" (Feat. T-Pain) This is a very intersting track as it features... Read review

Advantages: Reminds me of the film
Disadvantages: None

...I have to make an admission before I start and say I don't actually own this CD but the vinyl version of it - If you don't know what that is, ask your mum or dad :-). I don't think it will make much difference to the review as the tracks listing is identical, as is the front cover. What this shows though, is that this has been around a long time! (Yes, OK, so have I …) When the film came out in 1986, it was a bit of a cult film in France, and probably elsewhere too. I will not review it on this site as others have done a far better job than I ever could. Let's just say I saw it many times at the cinema, on video and on TV. I owned the full size theatrical poster for a while, but having been put up on and taken down from so many walls as I moved house, it finally had to be thrown out. I still miss it! I also have the book... Read review

Advantages: Mainstream Album, Cover Is Cool Yet Weird
Disadvantages: Lyrically Weaker Than Previous Efforts

...' Wayne re enacts getting pulled over by a female police officer. The best lyrical effort has to be "You Ain't Got Nuthin' On Me" Fabolous produces the best lyrics in my honest opinion. In everyone's overall view, Tha Carter III fails to live up to the hype surrounded by Wayne many believe it lacked the normal concept of a memorable album such as Nas' Illmatic. Positives that can be drawn from this are that it is certainly a mainstream album with tracks such as "Lollipop" & "Got Money" featuring Mr Vocoder himself T.Pain. Their are only a handful of tracks i can say i really like out of the total 16 but you be the judge.... Read review
