2.0 out of 5 stars Tough Luv It Isn't {2.5 Stars}, September 12, 2006

By	Norfeest "Yes Yes Y'all" (Washington DC USA) - See all my reviews

Straight to the point: the album is pretty forgettable. Though it's pretty average, Brothers From Another has too many holes in it for me to give it three stars. "Tonight" has a guest appearance from the usually reliable Daz, but even he couldn't save that song from being pretty boring. "Don't Stop (YG Party)" shouldn't be played while operating heavy machinery, and "Same Sh**, Different Day" is just plain awful.

There are a few strong cuts though. "Grown Man Pt. II" is assisted by Kanye West & John Legend. Kanye does a good job on the production. "Don't Keep Me Waiting (Come Back Soon)" is a nice joint for the ladies, but their hardcore fans may pass on it. "What We Gotta Do" is pretty introspective and is one of the best tracks on the album. "Beef" is solid, but it suffers from a lack of lyrical improvement. "Set It Off" is decent at best, but it's still listenable.

Brothers From Another is pretty weak. Chris and 'Neef haven't improved any on their lyrical scheme. The Tough Luv album masked its weaknesses with tight production. This time around, the production takes a huge step backward and ultimately puts a glaring spotlight on their inabilities. There are too many lame hooks and weak lyrics. I'd only reccomend this album to die hard Roc fans. Everyone else should leave this one on the shelf.

Standout Tracks: Beef, Set It Off feat. Swizz Beats, Don't Keep Me Waiting (Come Back Soon) feat. 112, Grown Man Pt. II feat. Kanye West & John Legend, and What We Gotta Do(My Favorite)
