5.0 out of 5 stars CLASSIC, September 4, 2005

This review is from: Can-I-Bus (Audio CD)

This album is truly underated and misunderstood i cant tell you how many people have knocked it and dissed it since its release in 1998. Canibus is a truly talented MC and out of all of his albums this one is probably my favorite. If any man could save hiphop from its sorry state than that man is Canibus also be sure to check out Mic club and Rip the Jacker 5 Mics all around.
P.S. Canibus has a new album comin out in a couple months called
Hip Hop For Sale Be sure to check that out to.

This review is from: Can-I-Bus (Audio CD)

Unfortunately this CD was released when there was an extreme thirst for dancehall/commercial rap(Puffy looped beats/RuffRyder Jingles). Even though I'm an underground fan, I was dissapointed at first because the oldschool/mellow beats totally DID NOT match with Canibus' wicked style(although now I love this CD from concentrating on the LYRICS). As Canibus said himself when he apologized to his fans "It wasn't my fault, Wyclef spoiled it!" I've bought mostly all of Canibus freestyles and tracks. And I've heard some tracks from the upcoming album. Let me tell you...These beats are some of the best I've ever heard. I heard a song where Canibus is ryhming A'capella(?) for a minute, then the beat comes in slowly and builds itself up around HIM. Thats real hip-hop. Not when rappers create jingles that sound exactly like the beats they are given. I try hard to be a hiphop purist, and with his upcoming CD, it will be a lot easier to remain faithful! Buy this album and the upcoming one if you want to know what this music is really about.

2.0 out of 5 stars Wack lackluster production=a waste of a skilled lyricist., February 21, 2000

This review is from: Can-I-Bus (Audio CD)

Before the release of his debut, canibus co-starred on common's and ll cool j album out shinining them both by far. Canibus became the new buzz of the underground with his unmatched battle style raps. I had alot of hopes for his album just before i copped it. I give canibus himself 5 stars, but wyclef's lack luster flavorless production killed the whole album. canibus's lyrical integrity couldn't even disguise the lack luster beats. With primo, rza and some underground producers on the beats the results on can-i-bus would been a ground breaking debut.
