Reign Forever World - Vader

Advantages: see op
Disadvantages: see op

...these in a while in my track by track analysis but want to mention one more thing. Mainly the hint of arrogance detected in the album whereby he comes to believe he is The Greatest but he has a long way to go before he gets to that stage! However, though I am disappointed with this effort as a whole, it is evident that during his time out of the studio he has kept his ear on the ground and taken note of the new RnB n Hip Hop techniques being used by fellow artists like DMX, Ja Rule and Eminem. The album also sees him drift off into the world of pop and surprisingly onto the latino scene though Ricky Martin can rest assured that his little niche in the market is safe! Track listing is as follows: 1. Born To Reign 2. Act Like You Know 3. I Can't Stop 4. Jaden's Interlude 5. 1,000 Kisses 6. Willow Is A Player 7. Black Suits Comin... Read review

Advantages: Loads of fantastic songs
Disadvantages: not as good as Andrew's Manics tape

...like the Manics even more, and I played the tape so much that it's getting a bit worn out in places. In addition to the fact that I missed my mates, pubs, and London's parks and museums, I was becoming more and more disturbed by my government's policies. President George W. Bush was doing something that horrified me almost every day. The Manics refer to 'America, the Devil's Playground' on 'Baby Elian,' so I felt a bit subversive every time I listened to their music. Unfortunately, 'Forever Delayed' is not as good a representation of the Manics' best work as Andrew's tape is. For the most part, their most extreme songs wouldn't get radio play, and 'Forever Delayed' is a Greatest Hits collection. It is, in a word, softer than the Manics really are, with a few exceptions: 'Faster,' 'Motown Junk,' 'You Love Us,' and 'The Masses... Read review

Advantages: The Girl's are back and are better!
Disadvantages: It does not seem to be doing to well in the charts!!

...After selling over 35 million albums world wide from only two albums, the Spice Girl's have drafted in some of the biggest names to help them with the prduction of "Forever" the eagerly awaited third album. "Forever" has a slick American R&B feel all the way through, the girl's have never sounded better but needless to say it has less character than their previous two offerings "Spice" and "Spiceworld". Geri has gone but has girl power? As one of the tracks lyric's declares the girl's are "right back at ya, come on, we're changing the vibe, get with it" a slight hint that they still believe in girl power maybe? If you are looking for a repeat of album's 1 & 2 you may be disappointed but looking for something new fromthem and you will be pleasantly surprised, it is tru things get better with age and why should the Spice Girl's be any...
