4.0 out of 5 stars
Finally an album from J-Hood, November 15, 2007
This review is from: The Hood Is Back (Audio CD)
After first hearing J-Hood back around 2000 on various mixtapes and LOX/D-Block albums, when he was only 17, and seing ads for his debut album back as early as the fall of 2003, he finally has an album drop, though it's not his "Tales From the Hood" D-Block debut many have been waiting for (and will probably never see drop), it's still a nice album and good to finally hear one from him. Though short, around 45 minutes, it has 15 songs (a few are only around 1:00 - 1:30, and a few are older and I've heard before). Of the 15, 3 are ok, the other 12 are good, no classics like he has mad ein the past unfortunatley. Guests are on 3 songs, and none are of the LOX, another unfortunate point on the album. A nice album for fans of one of the best punchliners int he rap game today to get a hold of if you can find it, and I'm still waiting for his real debut album though I heard he has left the D-Block label and possibly signed with 50 Cent and G-Unit, who had a heated fued with D-Block!!
