5.0 out of 5 stars BRING THAT BEAT BACK.. BRING THAT BEAT BACK, June 1, 2005

ACUALLY I GIVE IT 10 STARS!!!!!!

"CLOUD NINE" IS AN EXAMPLE OF A HIP-HOP ALBUM AT IT'S BEST. THE COMBINATION OF "NINE'S" RHASPY VOICE AND THE WALT DISNEY ORCHESTRA-LIKE TRACKS IS UNBELIEVEABLE AND AMAZING. FROM BEGINNING TO END PERRRRRRRRRFECTION. NINE AND PRODUCTION COMPANY WERE NOT GIVEN THEIR JUST DUE. I FEEL THAT THEY WERE TO FAR AHEAD OF THEIR TIME. EVEN THOUGH IT WAS RELEASED IN 1996, IF RELEASED TODAY, IT WOULD BE A CHART TOPPER FOR SURE. THEY WILL EVEN GO SEARCHING FOR HIS "9 LIVES" ALBUM!! "NINE" WHERE ARE YOU? COME BACK. YOU HAVN'T USED ALL YOUR LIVES YET.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nine - Cloud 9, January 8, 2006

This Cat sounds just like Xzibit would if he had a real bad cold, But it works for Him. His lyrics hit hard, with meaning, and the beats are very good. His flows are always right on beat. The most amazing thing about this album is the fact that it came out almost 10 years ago, and it hasnt aged at all. It is still one of the best albums i own, and thats saying alot because I am a huge collector of rap albums. I still listen to this album, it would be pointless to name the top tracks because ever song is good and has something to offer. I Highly reccomend It.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Unknown Hip Hop Artist!, April 27, 2005

(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Cloud Nine (Audio CD)

Ever since I discovered 9 on a trip to Germany in 97 (he has more exposure in Europe than at home, thats a damn shame) he has been on the top of my quote unquote underground rappers list. I have been trying to find out about him in the last 8 years, but its like he just disappeared from the map. Wack promotion and marketing held Nine back from probably becoming a viable commercial act. Listen to a couple cuts offa Nine Livez and then check out Cloud Nine. Talk about progression. Cloud Nine is a notable improvement and at the same I would put it in a drawer with Doggystyle, Illmatic, or Strictly 4, you can put it on 1 and just let it play through with only a couple disappointing moments. That right there is an acheivement in hip hop, and NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW. Unless you all buy this album, give it to your friends, and call your local radio stations requesting "classic 9 issht!"
