Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

In 1998, while all the other thugs are popping Moët, Gang Starr and their partners in rhyme, M.O.P., are finally collecting the respect they deserve. Lil' Fame and Billy Danzenie have generated buzz before, but not until First Family 4 Life have they been successful in putting together an end-to-end coherent album. Featuring guest shots from Heather B on "My Kinda Nigga, Part II" and Tef and Jay-Z on the firestarting "4 Alarm Blaze," the Mash Out Posse bring the rawest aural damage this side of the Mad Rapper. --Jon Caramanica


Vibe

With helping hands Premier, Laze E. Laze, and Da Beatminerz, this Brownsville, Brooklyn duo prove that the key to longevity is growth.

5.0 out of 5 stars First Family 4 Life, June 27, 2004
By ersone "ersone" (Houston, Tx United States) - See all my reviews
Masterpiece!! M.O.P. The last of a Dying Breed. Please, Please ignore the bad reviews. They think M.O.P stand for MOP and sh*t. Don't get it twisted... This is one of the best albums in Hip Hop History. These cats are still true to the Hip Hop roots. I miss real MC's like M.O.P. Please artist take a picture and use this as your model. M.O.P is M.O.P not a carbon copy, I wish I was on MTV, BET cats. They do hip hop they way they want to, not for just money. They love it. Please don't comment on what you do not understand. Please!!? I don't listen to country, but I respect every single artist doing it. I respect them for their very on creation. If you don't like Hip Hop Don't review it. M.O.P. True Warriors.
1 Love!

5.0 out of 5 stars The phattest Hip Hop album of 1998! Pure underground!, August 27, 1998
By A Customer
The production by Primo,Laze E Laze and M.O.P. themselves is tight as always and lyrically they're better than ever before! By the way, this album is nothing for the pop-audience, listening to Puff and LL, this is something for the real heads. "How about some hardcore!"

I enjoyed this LP just as much as I did Warriorz. Standout production, good raps from both the MC's and the guest artists. Definetly worth owning.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good record with some GREAT moments
As much as I wanna give this record four stars, it's really somewhere between 3.5 and 4, but Amazon.com doesn't give that option, so I'll just give it four. Read more

Four alarm blaze was really good, but the rest of the album smelled like fish. They should have tried a little better not to rip people off!!!!!!!!
