4.0 out of 5 stars
P Diddy can't hold him down...,
By Aaron (Chino Hills, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Life Story (Audio CD)
The first thing I thought when I had finished listening to this album was, "damn, he's never going to get the recognition he deserves being on the Bad Boy label". The only people really listening to, and buying this album, are the suburban kiddies who heard the song "Whoa" on their favorite "hip-hop" radio station. What most people and real hip-hop heads don't hear is Rob's ability to weave an intricate and emotional story through his songs. Whether it's about his rough childhood in "Life Story", or about a fantastic battle between gangsters in "Lookin At Us", it's all a very vivid picture thanks to his structure and delivery. The only reason this album doesn't get a four-star rating is because Puff Daddy found a way to muck up a near hip-hop classic, not only by speaking on several tracks, but by forcing certain subject matters. "PD World Tour"? For God's sake...All in all, a VERY paletable offering from the Bad Boy camp--about the only one to come from around that way since the passing of the REAL G.O.A.T. (greatest of all time) R.I.P. Big

don't judge a rapper by his ceo!,
By "gaz-l" (Sacramento) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Life Story (Audio CD)
For all of you who thought bad boy was gone, your wrong. Need we forget that while we were bumpin' 112's anywhere and Faith Evan's that Puffy produced them? But anyway, Rob is a tight MC, part meth, part big. He can take marginal beats (like on down the line joint and pd world tour)and turn out a pretty good song. While doing my initial preview of the album, these song sounded bad, but after a complete listen thye were pretty tight. Give him a tight beat (muscle game, br, life story) and the result is incredible. I wish there wasn't so many guest mc's, cause rob doesn't need them. He usually embarasses them. I personally have no problem with (got both albums), but don't make the mistake of not buying life story cause he produced it. You might think it's alright in the begining, but trust me, it'll grow on u quick.

Black Rob represents,

This review is from: Life Story (Audio CD)
Black Rob's album might be the best hip-hop album to come along in along time from the East. The lyrics are on point and Puffy's Hitmen crew lay the perfect backdrop. Don't playa hate and not buy this album because it's a puffy project, because it's not. It's 100% Black Rob and 100% pure hip-hop. Whoa is only a small sample of the hot songs on this album, deffintely not close to the best cut. If you think Beanie Sigel is good, you will love this. Didn't give it 5 stars just because I think only albums such as Illmatic, the Chronic, and the Imfamous should garner that title. And as this album is phat, it's deffinitley not hip-hop changing as those, but close to it. You'll be bumping this album deep into the summer.
