16) Outro (Amazing Grace...Dedicated to Andretta Tillman)

I have to say I have been a Destiny's Child fan from the start and I was bumping their first album and their sophmore cut is just as hot. I am a big fan of numbers 3, 5, 6, 11, and 12. I know that a lot of you have been hating on them because they did some "housework" and got rid of two of the original members. I say in the words of the Rock, they should "know their roles" and if they didn't like it "shut their mouths." Besides the new girls look hotter than the two that they got rid of. No doubt ladies ya'll are doing your thang and putting it down, definitely big dogg status (Flex's term). Now do I advise but this if you haven't already done so, absolutely so get going! Oh one more reason to buy this, "the writing's on the web."

"What's my name?" Well I wish it was DMX because this is a money-maker right here. This album picked up right where Flesh Of My Flesh, Blood Of My Blood left off. Of course this is what we can expect from a DMX joint. His sh*t will never be weak that's for damn sure. Now I know that I am a DMX fan but I am not gonna tell you that it is hot just 'cause I like his music, if I am feelin' it I am gonna tell you. This album is what'cu like, ya heard me!!!

*** Parental Advisory - Explicit Content ***

I think for his first solo release Drag-On did not impress me. He should have got rid of some of the guests on the album or at least kept it down to a minimum because I think that there were too many of them. Besides that this is a good CD and there are times when you can laugh at the lyrics (e.g. Shaquita & Hot D***). I expected a little more out of Drag-On but he had to start somewhere.

*** Parental Advisory - Explicit Content ***

Well the much hyped Tunnel did not live up to all hype. I think that it has its good and bad parts but I think for all the noise made about it especially from Flex on Hot 97 I would have thought that i would be more bangin' than this. I think that compared to all of the other mix tapes that Flex has but together this one is not one that something that you "must have." I am not hatin' on it, I am just saying that it could have been better.

If you are a Whitney fan then you will love this greatest hits album. If you don't have these CDs then I only have one question for you, what are you waiting for? Oh I know you guys ahve been hearing all the sh*t about her and the drugs and that triffling ass Bobby, well too bad. Go buy this because I said so and stop listening to all of the fake ass gossip. If we support Whitney then she can get away from that b*tch ass n*gga Bobby and take that ugly ass baby with her too.

Brian McKnight - Back At One

Tracks:

1) Last Dance
2) Stay
3) Played Yourself
4) Back At One
5) Stay Or Let It Go
6) 6, 8, 12
7) You Could Be The One
8) Shall We Begin
9) Gothic Interlude
10) Can You Read My Mind
11) Lonely
12) Cherish
13) Home

I know that I found this CD enjoyable but I think that it is a little top-heavy. The best songs are found from tracks 1-7 and the CD does not have a strong ending. One would think that after making all of these albums that Brian brags about, he would have been able to come up with a complete album that somebody could listen to from start to finish and not have to push the Next button. If you are like myself you will just program your CD player to just play numbers 1-7 and then before they are finished hit the repeat buttom so that you can hear those again so that you can at least get your money's worth out of them. Sorry Brian and sorry to your fans as well but this good but not good enough.

Well, well, well I expected better soundtrack than this after all the hype that the movie receieved. I personally can not rate the movie because I did not see it but the soundtrack is busted!!! If you take out the songs by Aaliyah and Destiny's Child, the album would be garbage!!! I have to say the soundtrack only go this much hype becuase the movie was said to be blazin'. This is an embarrassment for almost everyone on this soundtrack and I would not admit that I recorded any of the other song on the album besides Aaliyah's and DC's. Basically, this sh*t was WACK!!!

*** Parental Advisory - Explicit Lyrics ***

These were supposed to be the best songs of 1999 and in my mind I think that most of them were. This album is one of the better mix tapes that are out there right now and it is a definite must have. The tracks by Eminem are just some of his hottest tracks and Dre comes back and gives us a hot new joint from the Chronic 2001 CD. Overall I have to say that this album is a great follow-up to 1999's edition and it is one that you must buy.
