Editorial Reviews

Size Does Matter Some rap acts come with expiration dates printed on their careers, but this musical force will never spoil! Countless years as an Iron Chef of Underground Music have seasoned his style to a simmering perfection. His talent's as big as he is, whether it's laying down tracks or pounding Big Macs. His first solo album is titled Phatso, and it's just that - Phat! Phat-man anger and a bellyful of emotion can be felt in evry lick and lyric, while his distinct voice, intense flows, and patterns of attack rap squeeze listeners to the edge of their seats. Despite eight years with Twiztid, and the five national releases under his plus-size belt, Jamie Madrox is rap music's best kept secret - though he doesn't seem to mind! A big man with a big voice, he's hard to miss, but he hungers for entertaining and educating, rather than streamlining to the mainstream for a quick sale. Phatso puts Madrox in the solo spotlight, and he's showin' off more than his girth! It' s a showcase for the humor at the heart of Twiztid. It also affirms the bond between Madrox and his fans, one as mystical and enchanting as the music he offers them. Phatso hits the gut like a thug doughnut, like an entertainment entree with insight sauce and a side of irony, like a superstar sundae with bitchslap on top. If you're not smackin' your lips, Phatso will do it for you!

5.0 out of 5 stars Mr. Bones has done it.....AGAIN!, May 17, 2006

I been down with Jamie since his House of Krazees' days! Since he was known as Mr. Bones. With two solo albums already under his belt (under the alias Mr. Bones) To me Jamie is the best lyricist with the Psychopathic camp. Twiztid has always been tag because they rap with ICP, never gave the props they were meant to have! Twiztid could get a mainstream major deal if they wanted too no problem. With the R.O.C on a joint it reminds me of the old HOK days. Also has a appearance by Prozak from the group Project: Deadman (formally 1/2 of the group Bedlam)the other member of PD is Mike E Clark ICP's former producer. You don't have to be a Juggalo to enjoy this great disc...So if you ain't got it let then cope the m.f. and remember the wicketsh%t will never die!!

5.0 out of 5 stars 2006 is the year of the Hatchet, July 6, 2006

Before recently, I didn't think much of Madrox. He had some tight rhymes but I was feel Monoxide more lyrically. But after hearing Madrox on "Call Upon Your Gods", I realized he was one of the best on the Hatchet.

Phatso is pretty fresh. It blows AMB's album outta the universe (no offense to them). Every track will blow your mind. Madrox comes correct. I would also suggest you try to buy the Earth 2 Phatso version off the internet or something, as it has other songs and other guests.

I recently saw Twiztid in Iowa, and was a lil disappointed when I found out Monoxide wouldn't be there cuz of medical problems. But Madrox and Blaze tore it down straight up. I loved it!. Juggalo 4 Life. MCL

This album is awesome. My fave tracks are "Freak Out", "This B***h", "4 Fist, 2 Axe- Handles", "Tear Jerker" & "Take It 4 What It Iz". Psychopathic have changed their style alot though recently. Their music just isn't near as wicked as it used to be. Although I think their old style is way better, their new stuff is still good aswell. Highly recommended to all juggalos and juggalettes.
