Noreaga's debut album is a well produced one. The beats are slamming and he sticks to the formula that works. Noreaga isn't a lyrical MC but he does have charisma and energy. The guest appearances are hot and the flow of the album is consistent. Good effort from the N.O.R.E.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good, but not as good as CNN, May 20, 1999

Nore's debut is good, but is nowhere near as phat as CNN's "War Report." War Report was almost Nore's first solo since Capone was up north for most of the making of the album. I thought Banned From TV and The Assignment really stood out and NORE, Hed, 40 Island, The Change, Superthug, and Body in the Trunk were all pretty good as well. But, I Love My Life and The Way We Live were totally wack. CNN's "Closer" was a good mix of rap and R&B, but these two songs are not. I thought Fiesta and Mathematics were just blatant attempts at party songs, but they are still okay. Its Not a Game and Da Story are alright, but need work. All in all its a good CD, but I personally can't wait until Capone comes back and CNN drop again.
