This review is from: Back On My B.S. (Audio CD)

This album is a hot steamin pile of B.S. Busta Rhymes has officially tried me (and everyone else) with this album. The Big Bang was a pretty good album and Busta Rhymes had been puttin in work on remixes to a bunch of popular songs and that really had me anticipating this album. I thought that Busta Rhymes would be back as he puts it. WRONG! There's only a few songs worth listening to on Back On My B.S. (Respect My Conglomerate, Hustlers Anthem 09 (the remix is a million times better though), Arab Money (remix once again way better), Don't Believe Them and Decisions) and the rest are trash can material. Kill Dem is unbelievably bad...Do The Ricky Bobby bad. The World Round ft. Estelle is just laughable; a full blown techno song??? WTF Busta? Terrible. Another song I just laughed at uncontrollably was Wheel of Fortune...tried us all. I'm A Go And Get My ft. Mike Epps has the worst chorus of all time and the song itself is even cornier. We Want In ft. Ron Browz is an instant failure because anything featuring Ron Browz is an instant failure.

I think this album suffered from leaks of songs that aren't on here such as Blown with TPain or I Got Bass and plenty more. Busta Rhymes has disappointed to no end with Back On My B.S and consequently may be the worst album he's ever dropped. Busta Rhymes has served hip hop faithfully for nearly 15 years...it may be time for him to bow out. I feel the same way about this album as I did LL Cool J's last album Exit 13. We Still love you Busta but you just don't have it anymore. Well atleast it's better than Jim Jones last album. 1.5 stars.

This review is from: Back On My B.S. (Audio CD)

What a huge disappointment!! A well decorated emcee like busta rhymes puts out his worst album and one of the worst albums of the year!!!! Lyrically Busta Rhymes is still on point with this release. Its everything else about the songs that kill the album. The production sucks, The hooks made me wanna throw up, and the guest appearances (minus common and mary j blige) were weak as hell also. The hooks blew me because all of them had fake roger troutman-t pain synthesized sounf to them. Busta messed up because it seems as though he is trying to cater to a younger audience when the younger audience is not his fan base. This album has no replay value whatsoever!!!! avoid this one at all costs.

The only two songs i liked were:
GIVE EM WHAT THEY ASKIN FOR
DECISION

the rest of the album is straight garbage.

This review is from: Back On My B.S. (Audio CD)

In 2006, Busta Rhymes released The Big Bang, but popular opinion suggested the only thing interesting about that time period was what I mentioned in my review title -- but maybe that's because it was another one of those cases where the original version of the album got leaked and then the general public heard the "second" version. That might also be why Dr. Dre didn't promote the album (but he usually doesn't promote anyone not named Eminem anyway), which in turn might also be why Busta isn't on Aftermath anymore. Anyway, Bus released Back on My B.S. on...Motown? He expected to get promotion THAT way???

At any rate, as the first Busta Rhymes album to not even go gold (damn, even Anarchy went gold), this album isn't his best but it's not as bad as most of these reviewers say. Production is mainly handled by someone named Ron Brownz, and he and Bus craft listenable tracks like "Give Em What They Askin For", "Shoot for the Moon" and the interesting "We Miss You". However, when Ron gets on the mic, he kind of sounds like a poor man's T-Pain (see "Arab Money" and "We Want In" -- by the way, who is Flipmode Movement?). The real T-Pain actually shows up though, on "Hustler's Anthem `09", which is tolerable.

When Busta is joined by guest stars, the results are hit-or-miss. He sounds fine on "Don't Believe Em" (with T.I. and Akon) and "Respect My Conglomerate" (with Jadakiss and Lil Wayne), but then he starts to trip up. "Kill Dem" is reggaeton gone wrong, and the Pretty Ricky-esque "Sugar" might make you break your fast-forward button. "World Go Round", despite featuring nice vocals from Estelle, uses a bad sample of "I Know You Got Soul" (why are rappers still using that song anyway?); and speaking of R&B hooks, the obligatory song with a message, "Decision", has help from Mary J. Blige and John Legend, and the song isn't bad but it feels like it belongs on everyone's album BUT Busta's. And "Wheel of Fortune" is pretty okay.

Things also aren't great when Bus tries interview-style raps, as evidenced by "I'm a Go and Get My" and "If You Don't Know Now You Know" (featuring Mike Epps and Big Tigger, respectively). Whoops, looks like I named all the songs again. Busta Rhymes is still lyrically on point for the most part but Back on My B.S. is the kind of album that only diehard fans of his can truly appreciate.
