CD Review: Fabolous - Losos Way

I have always been a huge fan of Fabolous. His latest CD is good but pretty much the same old same. I hate to say it but the subject matter in Hip-Hop is getting a bit stale. Everybody is talking about the same stuff. So even for a very talented artist and lyric writer such as Fabolous, he is running out of ideas! In general the CD is solid but I just cannot get over the subject matter. Nothing has really blown my mind in Hip-Hop in a long time. At least he doesnt use auto-tune.
The production is solid but some of the tracks have too much singing!!!

All in all if you are a Fabolous fan then you will most likely enjoy this CD. I can imagine the younger generation of Hip-Hop lovers will really like this CD but for a person like me being a hardcore fan of Hip-Hop for over 25 years, everything is boring!

CD Review: Ginuwine - A Man's Thoughts

Ginuwine has done it again! He has brought R&B back to how it should be!
I have always been a major fan of Ginuwine. Great voice, good dancer and Timbaland in his corner.
Although Timbaland only did one track on this album, he still comes off so well.

Although it took a long time, A Man's Thoughts was worth the wait. Ginuwine has matured in every way and it permeates the songs on this album. Many songs on this album demonstrate the correct way to use pro-tubes, synthesizers, and autotunes. Ginuwine is a soulful singer who sings real R&B, not the pop crap that has been coming out!

Buy this album---nuff said!
