5.0 out of 5 stars Too tight for words, November 14, 2002

If you would rather listen to your fake bubblegum rap that has no substance or meaning to it, listen to whoever it is you listen to and pass this title up. If you like listening to real hardcore music that pulls no punches and will draw you in from the first song and keep playing until the end, please pick this up. Like Xzibit said, the game is 10% skill and 90% hollywood. Let me tell you these young cats the Mobfigaz are 100% skill and no hollywood. I can't believe how tight this Cd is, I got it about 6 months after it came out and it is still in my cars rotation. I don't hear this being played too much by anyone where I live, but I play it all the time. C-Bo and the MobFigaz represent for real. No filler tracks, no boring skits, just music to ride to the whole way through...the tightest tracks on here are....well all of them! But if I had to narrow it down to the tightest ones I would say Hustlin in the Rain, Mo Money, Tailor Made, Soldiers Paradise, Secret of the 5 and Mob Fashion. Those are the ones you will hear coming out of my stereo a lot. Much love C-BO and Mobfigaz for keeping it real and putting out the real music out. They say the West Coast ain't been the same without Pac, whatever. Bo is one of the best kept secrets on the West, this and all his other albums prove it. Pick up the Mobfigaz new one, Camp Mobfigaz cause it is just as tight as this one

C-Bo came through once again, this time with some of his young souljahs. all but two or three songs on this cd is tight. spice 1, yukmouth, and some others make this cd even better. when you get this play number 1 and 4, they the best ones.

5.0 out of 5 stars MOB FASHION!, April 26, 2006

There is an unwritten rule in the rap music. If you are a successful solo artist, you always gotta bring a crew of young rappers up with you. In most cases, it turns out to be a big flop, since the young crew of rappers is usually weak, and not quite on the same level as the big name who brought them up. Well, that's NOT the case with C-Bo's Mob Figaz. Ever since I heard them on C-Bo's classic album "Till My Casket Drops" (1998), I knew there's something special about these cats. An year later, C-Bo released the group's self-titled debut album. I was VERY surprised by how tight this album came out. 15 songs, no skits, no itros, just tight a## bangin' tracks. The album is gangsta rap to the fullest, hardcore in it's purest form. No laid-back, RnB type tracks. Just pure Bay Area gangsta sh##. C-Bo is on about half of the songs, and he really brings heat to the table, rapping with agression and emotion, just like he rapped on "Till My Casket Drops" and "Enemy of the State". But the album is NOT about Bo. It's about the Mob Figaz - Rydah, AP9, Jacka, Hussalah and FedX. They are not outshined by their mentor, and each one of them comes out with some remarkable verses. As you probably know, many of the group's members became some of Bay Area's best solo artists as well, most notably Rydah J. Klyde (who signed with Mac Dre's Thizz Records), The Jacks and AP9, with the other two developing their careers as well. This album introduce as to the Mob Figaz, and we all get to hear some awesome verses by the crew. Another thing that really impressed me was the production. It's some of the best beats you'll get to hear. C-Bo's connections surely helped, and the album gets music by some of the Bay hottest producers, including Lev Berlak, One Drop Scott, JT The Bigga Figga and a few others. The beats fit the rapping perfectly, and they show you Bay Area rap at it's best! If you like C-Bo's style, you'll love this album for sure, I guarantee. Support the real ones out there - Mob Figaz are from the streets and that's what they rap about - surviving, hustlin'. That's kind of rare today. A definite 5 stars album, no tracks will be skipped on this one. Guest rappers include C-Bo, Spice 1, Yukmouth, Young Kyoz, BA and a few others.
