"Where you at, whoadie? / I'm over here, whoadie!" As the hip-hop ice age begins to thaw, it's become apparent that Master P's the megamogul who holds the Dirty South's attention. But just when you thought he'd gone as far as possible, Master P takes his career to the next level. Game Face, his first album since signing a major partnership deal with Universal Records, moves P into the international zone. The music is still the same blend of booty bass beats and bubblegum pop hooks, but production values are extra crispy clean and P's vocals have acquired a suppleness that was missing in his earlier records. Lil' Romeo, C-Murder, and Silkk the Shocker play major roles in this game, lending support on "Ghetto Ballin'" and "Back on Top," while newcomer Sera-Lynn adds flair to the square biz bounce of "Real Love." Game Face shows why Master P is a hip-hop soldier with no limit. --Rebecca Levine

2.0 out of 5 stars GameFace by Master P, February 13, 2006

By	David Foskin "SneakyGoblin on XBL" (Waterford, Ireland) - See all my reviews

New label, New Year, New No Limit, new trash.

Music mogul Master P has a rich, glorious legacy in rap, but Game Face is by far the worst album he has released. With his new deal with Universal and the erection of The New No Limit, the hype put into this album was just that - hype.


Produced by the likes of Soulja Music, Neptunes, Dr. Dre, and Timbaland, and featuring the No Limit Soldiers, you might accuse P of selling the farm for quick sales. But Out of 14 songs there are only a possible five songs that you can listen to and enjoy.

One of the better songs is "The Block," a touching a song about his mother being absent as he flipped drugs on the harsh New Orleans streets. This album is family affair all right. Unfortunately for the aging P, his own son outshines his father on each song ("Ghetto Ballin" and "Back On Top") that he is featured on.


His single "Ooohhhwee," featuring new No Limit Soldier 5th Ward Weebie, basically tells you what you are going to get on Game Face. You get a ghetto ballin', bragging, thuggin', No Limit family trying to get being back on top. Game Face contains many samples from old classics, which make for P treading on material that should have been left in the Puffy-era. Sorry to say, but his album makes his previous album Ghetto Postage look like Nas' classic album Illmatic.

If Game Face indicative of the New No Limit, listeners are certain to quickly move on to the next new thing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Game Face, December 22, 2001

By	"d-murder" (Germany) - See all my reviews

Game Face isn't a hardcore rap album from Master P like he used to do back in the days, but it's still tight. I like the Bounce songs like Oohhhweee & Rock It with the newest Soulja 5th Ward Weebie and also tracks On The Block or Whodi Gone where he raps like he used to on Da Last Don. Be prepared to hear some hard'n tight stuff from The New No Limit when Mr. Magic drops in March & also get Krazy - "Breather Life", Soulja Slim - Streets Made Me" and C-Murder - "C-P-3.com" because all 3 are hard and tight (...) albums!

1.0 out of 5 stars Master P done went down south....waaaaayy down south, December 20, 2001

By A Customer

I don't have that much to say, but I will say that this CD is the wackest piece of junk I have ever listened to from MP. Why isn't he making the hard hitting tracks he used to do back in '96??? The bounce tracks are horrible. He needs to get a new style fast before he gets dissed like Hammer did. Out.
