3.0 out of 5 stars
Not the best, but certainly the Most Popular, March 3, 2004
This review is from: The Best of Busta Rhymes (Audio CD)
This compliation contains almost all of Busta's singles and the tracks that have through the years of Busta Rhymes' turbulent career enjoyed the greatest success. It does not, unfortunately feature the singles off his last album (that was Genesis at the time of the release), which is a bit of a downside to the compilation. Still, to people that are not fans of Busta, but want to get a nice feel of his work, this is a certainly suitable compilation. However, this album can't in any way attract the attention of Busta Rhymes fans, as it features nothing new (also, to fans the legitimacy of the tracklisting will seem doubtable). In conclusion, if you want to get into Busta's music, this is a satisfactory starter.

Busta Rhymes is definitely one of the most unique rappers alive - not the best collection ever but it's still great!, January 9, 2006
This review is from: The Best of Busta Rhymes (Audio CD)
I don't know what everyone else is thinking, but Busta Rhymes is one of the most unique, interesting and strange rappers alive today. He's definitely a strange guy ala the Wu-Tang Clan, but his raps are clear, funny and sometimes even quotable. This is a great collection which I'll admit gets arguably a little slow towards the end, but the beginning is fantastic. I was never truly "into" Busta Rhymes before (I'd heard his hits), but now I can see just how talented he is (he's VERY strange - see "Dangerous" for a good example). He has an instantly recognizable voice and personality that, besides possibly the Wu-Tang Clan, you won't find anywhere else. Except for the first two tracks (which are from his Leaders Of The New School days), everything is from his solo career. Overall I think most rap fans will love this album, and those just looking for his hits will find them all here. All in all this is highly recommended!
Highlights include:
the entire collection!

It's got "Rhymes Galore"., March 14, 2005
This review is from: The Best of Busta Rhymes (Audio CD)
I must admit I was a little late getting into Busta, but now that I'm in, it's alot of fun. He has a great flow, and is definitely unique among his peers. This is a super "best of" that includes everything that I (a casual fan), have ever heard from him. Most of this is good, but my faves are "Woo Hah!! Got You All In Check", "Dangerous", "Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Could See", and "Party is Goin' On Over Here". Plus it has "What's It Gonna Be" with Janet, and the cool "Turn It Up(remix)/Fire It Up", which samples the theme from "Knight Rider". After one listen to this sweet collection, you'll be saying "Gimme Some More".
