RBX- Ripp Tha Game Bloody: Street Muzic,
This review is from: Ripp Tha Game Bloody: Street Muzic (Audio CD)
RBX's (Reality Born Unknown) third album is "Ripp Tha Game Bloody: Street Muzic" (2004). I first heard RBX on Dr. Dre's Chronic and later on RBX's cousin Snoop Doggs "Doggystyle", both classic albums. Over the years I have come across him on a rare guest spot or two but never took the time to check out either of his previous full length albums. RBX starts his album off by talking about Hip Hops exploitation and phony MC's on the intro, then drops the grimey "Foul Mood" a memorable hardcore cut. Alot of early tracks dont standout for me, there not bad just not memorable. Later cuts do standout though some of these include the thugged out "Crime", the fastpaced catchy "RBX" and "Somebody Else" a Westcoast blazing banger. Theres no escape on "They Run" another good track which is laced with a sad sounding beat. RBX gets rough on "Rock Head" a metal based track. Most people will probably never come across this release, "Ripp Tha Game Bloody: Street Muzic" has its ups and downs, I recommend this one to loyal RBX fans and suggest others listen to it first before copping it. RBX has one of those distinct flows people either like or hate.

Why RBX? Why didnt you bring the skills you have?,

This review is from: Ripp Tha Game Bloody: Street Muzic (Audio CD)
RBX is one of my favorite rappers, he has a dark, sinister style. Instead of dropping a unique, straight hip hop album(which is what I was expecting). He decided to make a g-funk album co-starring his whole muthaf@$#ing family.This is more of a compilation because RBX only does a small handfull of songs solo, and predictably, those ones are basicly the best tracks with the exception of the snoop and daz collabos. So RBX I ask you, why would you try to make an album featuring mostly talentless artists on your record label, when you could have done a REAL DOPE solo album (how do I miss Heatmizer) and package a compilation of your artists with the album? I could not be more disappointed. I would rather spend my 11.99 on anything but this cd, Sorry X, you wasted your talent on this album, dont be mad at me.

"Ripp Tha Game Bloody" Review,
By Crazy Jim (Massachusetts) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ripp Tha Game Bloody: Street Muzic (Audio CD)
Average album from West Coast veteran, RBX, released from Daz Dillinger's independent imprint, Gangsta Advisory. RBX, who came up with Snoop & Tha Dogg Pound during the Death Row era of the early 90's, never really had a breakthrough solo effort despite a ghastly flow and an ominous voice. "Ripp Tha Game Bloody" has a few decent tracks but is far too guest-heavy to be considered a solo album. All-star appearances by Snoop on "Tell It! (The Remix)" and Daz on "Jus... Murda" are pretty underwhelming but his collabo with former Doggystyle artist, E. White on "They Run" is the highlight here. There are some other worthwhile tracks like "Summer In The City", "Crime", "RBX", and "Picasso", but for the most part, the album is nothing special. Another problem I had with the album is that it has no production credits, thus all of its young unknowns continue to go unknown. "Ripp The Game Bloody" should have been more.
