4.0 out of 5 stars It's really not a bad album., August 13, 2005

Kashi "Music Queen" (Baton Rouge, LA) - See all my reviews

For once I'am very pleased that I didn't pay attention to any of the negative reviews for this album, because it really isn't that bad of an album. Of course it's hard to take some of his lyrics serious, because this is the guy from the teen group N-toon who was just out like 4, 5 years ago. Anyway with that said, it's a nice album. I find some of his lyrics to be a little odd, like when he says in the song "This way", "I'll take you any place, Domestic or excotic" (Hmm what?). Or like when he says in "Yesterday", "Aint no tellin where I'd be, Dead or in the penitentiary, From shootouts wit my enemy Squeeze until my clips empty". Like come on Lloyd it's hard to believe you have had shoot outs with anyone. Anyway my absolute favorite tracks have to be "Feels so right", " Caddillac Love", "This way", and "Trance feat. Lil Wayne". I've had this album for a while now and I still listen to it like I just got it. Of course this album isn't the best R&B album to hit the shelves, but if you like albums with a couple of ballads, this might be for you. And if you didn't like any of the singles he came out with, you still might like the album, because all of the songs have a different sound. None of the songs sound the same. That's my review, I'm out!

5.0 out of 5 stars Lloyd the prince of R&B, July 25, 2004

I have to admit I was kind of skeptical when Lloyd first came on the scene I thought he'd be just another one hit wonder. But after buying his cd it became very evident that this is not the case. Southside is a phenominal cd which was very well put together. Lloyds voice is something new on the R&B scene he has his own sound.........Unlike these other R&B cats trying to fill other peoples shoes Lloyd is creating his own path alluring many females with his thuggish appeal...Don't let his looks fool you he can hold a note like there's no tomorrow...If you get the chance make sure you see him preform live....Lloyd has a bright future ahead of him

4.0 out of 5 stars The Inc. FINALLY releases a solid album!, July 24, 2004

Red Lyte Special "***lytes...camera...action***" (Mississippi, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Southside (Audio CD)

I'll be honest, I'm definitely NOT the biggest Murder Inc. fan in the world, but it's pleasant to finally hear a record from the label that isn't absolutely dreadful. Though Lloyd's debut solo effort doesn't hold a candle to the year's best-selling and most critically acclaimed album, Usher's Confessions, it's without a doubt the best r&b debut the industry's seen in the last few years. While there are a few lackluster tracks that take away from the overall quality of the record, most songs are both catchy and well laced. Southside's best tracks:

1.Sweet Dreams (both pop & crunk friendly)
2.Hey Young Girl (the most infectious song of the year)
3.Take It Low (sexy & catchy)
4.I'm A G (bursting w/ creativity...period)
5.My Life (urban grit w/ an r&b twist)
