The album is great, and probably the best for 1994, save for maybe the
upcoming Jeru joint. One comment, the album is far too short. Ten tracks
for eleven dollars is rediculous. I had heard halftime, one love, new
york state of mind, memory lane, the world is yours, and it ain't hard
to tell, thus getting only an additional 3 tracks was disappointing. To
top it off, one of the three tracks was a skit. This is bullshit. Yes, I
am screaming of the "super poetic" Rapper Nas. Hopefully, there will be
more remixes in the future with bonus tracks on the B-Side. Come on Nas,
get off that ASS and make more shit because it is fat.

I agree it is a little too short, but that is much better than throwing
a couple of songs that don't just meet up to standards. Like the old
cliche says, quality not quantity. And speaking of Nas, I get a feeling
this is going to be an album I'm going to enjoy later. It didn't slap me
right at first, but I'm sure in about a month I'll be playin' this over
and over. I can already tell after one listen that this hip hop album
can be described like none other can: powerful. Sounds corny, but you
can tell Nas is deep into hip hop and life. Everyone peep it.

Okay, British guy, what is? Indie rock? 2 Unlimited? Bros? Progressive
House? The Chieftains? Aphex Twin? Please. Rap is the only really exciting
form of music these days (I'm not going to play myself and say how much I
like techno, 'cause it's much more ephemeral). Rock and roll damn sure sucks.

I know I shouldn't respond to this, but the guy's address just begged me...

Bros!!! They were so funny. I was in London when they were getting to be
popular in the pop world. I remember seeing their videos and the big posters
in the HMV/Virgin stores...

I saw the Dentists last night. They were quite honestly not very good. I
gave them a couple of points for their accent humor. A couple of people
kept yelling, "Wot?" and the bass player said, "Wot, do you think I have
a funny accent or something? I'll have you know that I'm speaking Queen's
English..." Music was okay, but most of my friends said "they should have
stayed in Manchester..."
