I love "Freedom".The Talib Kweli sample on the hook just fits beautifully. "Outer City" and "Samsonite Man" are my other faves too.

He mainly raps about weed, "bitches" (for lack of a better word), and clothes. He's pretty dope to me though, one of the few "show-off" type rappers that I like. Here's two videos from the album... his flow is very laid back, I got used to it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0HV20qgUVM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcgvW-KzJNw He has guest appearances from Bun B, Mickey Factz, Amanda Diva, Young Chris, and some of his people. If you like those youtube videos you'll probably like the album, if you don't like 'em then the album probably isn't for you. Tommy boy, I checked my mail on the 21st of October and it was shipped to my house. I had no tracking number or anything, I was pretty pissed because I was like "when the fuck is this coming??" I folded because I HAD to listen and downloaded it on 10/20... at least I got the bonus cuts though. "The Score" with Planet Asia is my shit. My favorite joint on this is probably "Stars", but "Hey Young World", "Lupita", "Father", "Samsonite Man" etc etc are all just dope. If you ain't heard this yet go download it, and I guarantee you'll like it. Then, go buy it on amazon, itunes, mom and pop shop, w/e! CA All Day!

Definitely one of the dopest albums to drop this year. So Be It by Qwel & Maker, Some Kind of Wonderful by Jon Hope, and Narcicyst by the Narcicyst are also up there.

Some people have tried to shoot me down for putting Cuban Linx 2 behind this but fuck 'em. I can related a lot more to BMW than OB4CL2, just saying. I don't even know if posting a review is worth it because I pretty much agree Deez. Good shit. I'm trying to remember all of the very dope hip-hop albums that dropped this year. Boy Meets World OB4CL2 US BKNTI Double Barrel This Ain't No Mixtape Slaughterhouse Still gotta take good listens to Skyzoo's joint and I haven't even heard Ap's or Mos Def's album... I'm laggin'. Royce's album is eh to me... I was hyped as shit for that and was pretty disappointed. There are a lot of other joints I still needa digest before making a final opinion. I don't like Relapse or BP3, sue me. Other decent albums. Boss Of All Bosses Chemical Warfare A Brand You Can Trust The Blaqprint Blackout2 Padded Room J$P Album of the year so far for me… Some people have tried to shoot me down for putting Cuban Linx 2 behind this but fuck ‘em.

Not really much to add. This is one of the best rap debut albums i have heard in a long while! Exile really seems to have been the perfect fit for the kid. When i first heard Fashawn i was like "damn, who is this kid?!". The way he then bodied Evidence's far left made me a fan. Being able to rap and transport emotions the way Fashawn does at the amazing age of 20 really impresses me the most. One really wants to listen to what he has to say, which is a lot. To me he raps like someone who has already dropped 2 albums. You can tell that he's been through a lot and has obviously found the best way to express and absorb his experiences. @BoogieFan: I agree, the album has to be found in the top 5 rap releases of 2009, alongside Cuban Linx II, Foundation etc. With his debut album being such a success (not necessarily in terms of record sales but rather in terms of expert and conoisseur's opinions), I see a great future and a lot of possibilities! I will definitely follow the guys career. Really excited to see how he goes about his next project. peace Great review as usual! Not really much to add.
