Review: Well looks who’s back and not on a soft duet with some chick; that’s right, it’s 50, Curtis Jackson with his third album (studio wise). The songs are good despite what the Kanye West fans would like you to believe. He seems to still have some steam left in his engine and is ready to let it out.

I actually got worried when I saw him going down the same trail that Ja Rule went down and was never able to comeback from. I’m just glad 50 found the breadcrumbs in the woods.

The guest appearances were many but they didn’t take away from the main artists – hence the word GUEST. It was all 50. For those that complain that he’s rapping about the same thing so what. Jay-Z raps about the same damn thing; Kanye still crying about the same thing; Mary J. singing about the same thing; even J Lo humming & screeching about the same thing. If it’s working for you then keep it popping. If it’s not then you should move on.

Either way this album isn’t the best of the year but it’s also far from being the worst. 7 blades go out to 50 for making the album a want instead of a regret.
