Rappers don't make albums worth listening to anymore. There is a banger here and there, but there are too many ringtone and club bangers to ever have a solid album (except Only Built For Cuban Linx 2). As of the last... well, a really long time, mixtapes are where the real hip-hop has been going down.

Ever since New York fell off the map, there have been glimpses of potential from several MCs, but they just end up wasting it by following the herd. Juelz drops a gem every once in a while (see "Beamer, Benz or Bently"). Cam'ron has always been hilarious and occasionally flows well (See "Killa Cam"). Jae Millz's mixtapes are fantastic, but he has yet to drop a real album. Nicki Minaj has the potential to be the best female rapper ever just because there has only been one good female rap album ever (Lil Kim's Hardcore).

Now, Fabolous has always had a good verse here and there, he just gets caught up in making songs for the ladies too often. That's the great thing about mixtapes, there are almost never pop rap tracks made for the stereotypical woman. Fab goes hard for twenty straight tracks. His wordplay is on-point and he delivers a LOLable line at least once per song. The only problem that I could see anyone having with this mixtape is a common problem with all mixtapes, where the parodying of the chorus from the original song is lame. But really, if you listen to hip-hop for choruses then you have no business listening to anything that isn't on the radio. Fuck off.

Highlights are "Roger That", Lloyd Banks' "Beamer, Benz, or Bentley," where Juelz Santana shines, and "I'm Raw" which is the best song Fabolous has ever done (As a vegan, that video offends me). DJ Drama has probably the funniest ad lib to a song that he will ever probably.


"No Barack Odrama for this one,
Call me Dram McCain...
Killing you niggas"


Sorry for the N word. It wouldn't have the same effect if I took it out.
