After his unforgetable hit "Back that a** up off his album 400 Degreez, then came Tha G Code which was a good follow up, but could of been better. Now Juvenile is back and hits us with his new album "Project English." If you liked Juve's "400 degreez" you'll definitely enjoy this...definitely better then "Tha G code." This album is typical Ca$h Money music but a bit better. Mannie Freash once again comes through with the hot beats and Juvenile lyrically just about can't go wrong. The thing I loved about this album, thats is different from BG's "Checkmate" and Turk's "Young and Thuggin" is that there are no skits. You don't have to hear the Big Tymers and their annoying skits(If you have Young and Thuggin and Checkmate you now what I mean) but with Juvenile's skills he should of recorded more tracks like Turks "Young and Thuggin" which had 21 compared to Juveniles 16. "Project English" and just about every other CMR album no matter whos album it is, wether its Juveniles, Waynes, Turks, BGs or the Big Tymers you always know your gonna get the whole click. The whole crew is on this one, also Mickey from the Capos features in the intro and TQ who was on the "Baller Blockin soundtrack features on the track "My Life." The songs that are just amazing are of corse his new hit "Set it Off," and the "Set it Off."(remix) with Wayne, Turk and Baby. I also love "My Life" which features TQ and "Sunshine." The rest of the albums plays out just as good. I think this album is the best Ca$h Money album to date along with Wayne's "lights Out" who is my favorite member of the Hot Boys. If your a Ca$h Money fan definitely get this album. You'll be missing out. Also look for these new albums commin soon. HOT BOYS-"LET EM BURN" OFFICIAL-"TELLING OUR STORY"(Ca$h Money R&B) and the new comer MACK 10-"BANG AND BALL"

Everybody who says that this is Juvenile's worst album is on the money. Juvenile was about to leave Cash Money so he put out a halfassed effort in order to fullfill the contract promise before he left. This album is the end product. The album has two flaws: Juvenile doesnt sound as inspired as he did on Soulja Rags and 400 Degreez and Mannie Fresh's production was already becoming redundant. The Good: Set It Off was an okay first single but the remix with The Hot Boys and Baby is somewhat better. My Life and They Lied are the best tracks on the album. Mama Got A** is Back That Azz Up part 2 and Lil Wayne saves What U Scared 4 from being a total waste. The Bad: H.B. Headbuster is unwashed crusty butt! Be Gone with The Big Tymers is garbage plus how are you going to have a song on Juve's album without Juvenile on it? In The Nolia is a total waste and Get Your Hustle On is boring. The Ugly: White Girl is just plain awful. In Ya A** is trash and has the dumbest hook the Juve has ever put together. 4 Minutes sounds like a piss poor imitation of the old Doug E Fresh classic 6 minutes and the reggae-inspired Sunshine is bad enough to offend the Jamaican Community. Bottom Line: This was and still is Juvenile's worst effort. Even though every album that came after it was suspect, this album still stands out as his worst. Juvenile just doesnt have the fire that he had when he first came in the game and he pretty much sounds like he's just making tracks for the hell of it.

After listening to 400 Degreez, I expected "project English" to have the same vibe it brought on. This album really did not have anything that you can really get into a groove to. "Set it off" was a very weak single that is somewhat like an anthem but the Juvi didn't deliver like he usually does in that song. "From Mama/Mama Got Ass" was the second single and that song didn't really do much for the album either, however it was a decent song with decent delivery. Juvenile really didn't show the type of lyrical skill or delivery he showed on previous albums. The singing on his hooks/choruses really didn't cut it. Also, most of the album, you hear the other Ca$h Money artists, not Juvenile. On "Be Gone", it says Juvenile feat. Big Tymers, however Juvenile didn't rap a single verse AT ALL, it was all Big Tymers and surprisingly they delivered quite well. "4 Minutes", you hear 1 verse by Juvenile, rest are by Hot Boy$ and they do a better job than Juvenile. On most of the songs, guests out-shine Juvenile himself. "My Life" was probably the only good song Juvi delivered well, with TQ singing a good hook. "Sunshine" was quite worth mentioning because that it is a new style that we haven't heard from Ca$h Money before, Juvenile uses his hoarsy voice and talk with Jamaican accent, this reggae style was fresh but Juvi wasn't very good at it because that it neither Big Tymers or Juvi brought the vibe that reggae artists bring. "IN the Nolia" was one of the songs you had to skip, theres "In the Nolia" with really bad singing after every line. Lil Wayne outshined Juvenile on "White Chicks" and kept the song alive. "Set IT Off Remix" was a nice remix of the song Set It Off, Juvenile appeared only on 1 verse, rest are delivered by Hot Boy$ and Baby, they all did pretty well. Songs like "Get Your Hustle On" brings no energy,and "HB Headbusta" has too much singing. Manny Fresh's production did have his signature sound, most of the beats were good except for "Get Your Hustle ON". However, overall Project English didn't bring what I was looking for in a Juvenile album, he didn't appear on too many songs, one good things is that there are no poinntless skits, that was a good thing. But overall, this sounded to somewhat like a compilation and desperately needed a "HOT" single like something that will bring vibe: exp Back Dat Ass Up.

This cd i str8, if ur a juvenile fan get this right now. I'm just glad that he came out with a new cd since tha G-code, which i thought wasn't that good. Project English is much better.

Juvenile being one of the oldest in the click with the most experience along with BG, you know Juve is always gonna bring the heat. After giving us hits after hits such as "Ha" "U Understand" "I Got That Fire" and the unforgettable "Back That Azz Up" you would anticipate a great follow up after his last decent release "Tha G Code." Well Juvenile definitely keeps his streak alive with his most recent release "Project English." Most of us probably agree Juvenile's 2X platinum album "400 Degreez" was, and still is his best album. I couldn't agree more. It's not easy to put out and album like "400 Degreez," but then again, it's even harder to make a better follow up. "Project English" is a great attempt and a great album, but it's still over-ran by "400 Digress."
This album starts off with a typical CMR intro "Lets Roll" by Mannie Fresh and Capo member Mickey. Then flows into Juvenile's new hit "Set It Off" which is one of the better tracks on the album. This album is filled with great songs such as "Set It off" "Set It Off (remix)" "HB HeadBusta" "4 Minutes" and "Be gone." But my 2 personal favorites are "My Life" featuring TQ and the reggae type feeling song "Sunshine." These 2 tracks show Mannie Freah and his production at their best. Then you have the 2 silly(dumb) tracks ... so Juve gives us a little bit of everything on this one.
After Juveniles last three attempts this is the order I believe they rank in from best to least:
1)400 Degreez 2)Project English 3)Tha G-Code
Once again Fresh delivers the hot beats and Juve's lyrics are on point...you could say platinum status. So if your a Ca$h Money fan u definitely don't want to miss this one. There's no Blockin these 6. CMR can't be stopped!!

I wrote another review of this cd, but I had to change this one too. Juve's cd is amazing. It's right up there with 400 Degreez, I can't really say which one is better. It's a new style for Juve, thi scd really grows on you. If you don't like it that much at first, keep listening to it, the beats are hot, and people like Turk and Mickey drop they're best verses ever. Go out and buy it, don't listen to what the haters say, Cash Money 4 Life.

This is Juvenile's last solo cd on Cash-money records and 1 of his best. Every song on this cd is bangin. The best songs are #2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12, 13, and 15. It took long enough 4 this cd to come out and it definitely was worth the wait!!!!

I don't really think that this is better than any of his other albums, except for Tha G-code(it...). Anyway, I like it kind of,but not alot. My favorite song on it is "Set it off".Well a little of the other songs are good,so it's an O.K. album.

I gotta tell ya that stop gettin himself in trouble when he bust 1 of em haters on tha head wit a champagne bottle if u havent heard a while ago. Mannie Fresh gotta think harder on tha beatz sumtimes. He did hotter on tha otha LPs but not 2 good on this 1 n Turk's recently. Anyway Juve got sum mo' recycled beatz on this 1 2 but only 4 Set It Off since it was used 4 UNLV's Drag 'Em "N" Tha River---dont no why they left CMR. Tha otha 1 was on Tha G-Code's Tha Man. It was formerly used on Big Tymers's How You Luv That?, Vol. 2 as an intro. But now this should tha BOMB but its not. Just great 2 add 2 yo otha Cash Money collection. My favaites cuts are: H.B. HeadBusta & Mamma Got Ass.1

Project English is a good CD but it was a little disappointing. I dunno..It almost appeared as if Juvenile's heart wasnt in the album. Supposedly he has left Cash Money which I believe is a HUGE mistake. The Cash Money roster basically saved this album. What will Juvie do without Mannie's hot beats? The highlights of this album are "Set if off (remix)", "4 Minutes", "My Life", "Be Gone (My personal favs. Mannie is a genius), and "Sunshine". All of these tracks feature Baby, the Hotboys, or TQ. Without this all star line up backing him up, Juvenile will fall flat. THis album is definitely worth your money--I just worry about the next Juvenile effort.
