Going into this album I have to say after hearing the singles " Throw it in the Bag" and "My Time" i was very unsure of the direction of the album because i thought My Time was straight fire, and throw it in the bag should have been renamed throw it in the fire. But after the 1st listen im basically blown away by the production, just sparked the blunt, 2nd time around and ill get in depth with these tracks.
The Way Intro- When the beat drops and you hear fab start spitting, you get caught up in his lyrics which just get harder and harder as the track progresses. Straight bars, Fab just went off into space on this joint, the lyrics on the Intro are some of the best lines ive ever heard fab spit. 5/5
Imma do it ft. Kobe- Kobe opens up on the hook, he contributes to the track much more then I expected, Fab's 2nd verse really stands out here, great production. Fab went outside the box on this one, I havent heard a sound like this before and its hard as hell. 4.5/5
Everything, Everyday, Everywhere ft Keri Hilson- Another great beat, Reminds me in a way of Grind hard from jadakiss.. The beat drops when Fab spits and drops again when Keri Hilson just comes in and defines the track.. I wouldnt change anything here. 5/5
My time- The lead single on the album, Jeremih flows great on a flawless beat, really sets the tone for the track. Fab comes in and tops off every verse and really just reached out to a very wide audience with type of track. Real motivational type track with fire all the way through. 5/5
Stay- Fabolous spits some real material right here.. Talks about how his dad walked out on him when he was a kid, and how he had a son this year... How he will always be in life.. Marsha Ambrocious gives a great hook, Fabs shouts out to some other father figures in hip hop... great track 5/5
Lullaby (*Produced by the Alchemist) - Arguably the best beat ive ever heard come from The Alchemist.. this is crazy, Fab gets on the hook, and transistions all of his lines flawlessly... every line he spits has you anticipating the next, wild track 5/5
When the Money goes Ft. Jay Z- Jay on the hook was pretty effective, but i was dying for a verse... this beat was taylor made for Jay, but Fab shows what level he is on, Jermaine Dupri with crazy production, dont know where that came from, but they all contributed very nicely. 4.5/5
Throw it in the Bag ft The Dream - Ive never been one to hate on an artist for making a commercial track or two to sell an album... Smart business move, its gotten alot of play so if ya girl likes it then why not... 3.5/5
Salute ft. Lil Wayne- Beat drops, catches your ears right away, drums beatin hard and its just crazy how well Fab flows on this... Lil Wayne comes in and i Dont know who went harder.. they both spit crack and fed off eachother like crazy... they make a difficult track seem almost too easy 5/5
Pachanga - Fab goes into a different direction from the rest of the album, spits on a slower beat, explains his problems with people around him, how he tried giving people opportunities and they took advantage of his situation.. Some real material here, he really finishes strong on his last verse and the message was concrete throughout 4.5/5
Last Time Ft. Trey Songz- Trey Songz on the hook and you know its a hit.. This track is for the females but its backed up by top notch production.. You cant hate on this.. Fab flowed elaborately from start to finish 4.5/5
Feel Like im Back- This is one of the best songs i have ever heard... you know when you a song catches you off guard, and you get chills down your back? Fabolous is a future legend in rap... I cant picture ANYONE in hip hop doing what fab did on this beat real talk... 5/5
There He Go ft. Red Cafe- This beat is intense, unbelievable production. gets you amped up immediatly, Red Cafe and Fab go in, im ready to hit the gym after hearing this ****.. My heart is pumpin. [SIZE="5"]5/5[/SIZE]
Makin Love Ft Neyo- If i was making passionate love to a beautiful girl then this song would work perfectly... But seeing as this is not always the case 3.5/5
Fabolous Life ft Ryan Leslie- Nice collaboration, strong beat and good lyrics... Fabs strongest verse is the third and Ryan Leslie is great throughout. 4.5/5
I miss My Love- Amazing production... Fab Paints a picture about getting in the game, he uses so many different analogies for situations, and paints his masterpiece with his lyrics... He gets done dirty in this story, you never know who will turn on you and this story was told perfectly. 5/5
.... I am left completely blown away by this album. This is HANDS DOWN the best album that has been put out this year or arguably the past few years. I have not seen such unbelievable production from front to back. Fabolous truly makes his way onto a track and pushes the direction to the top every single time. This album was amazing, so much substance, wordplay for days, flawless beat selection. Fabolous to me established himself on a level that only few have reached with this album. From now on when the greats are mentioned out of new york, Fabolous's name has to come up with guys like Jay z, Nas, jadakiss, he is on that level now. Fabolous truly just hit an unbelieveable prime and i hope he stays in it for time to come because he has just surpassed 95% of his peers in the game.
GO BUY THIS ALBUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
