Various Artists - Violator: The Album (Violator, 1999)

First off, half of these people aren't even on the Violator roster, like Eightball, Mysonne (who both appear on here more than once), and the Hot Boys. A&R's must have really wanted to promote Mysonne but where is he now? (Same question for Eightball.) Also, only Lil' Wayne and B.G. appear as the Hot Boys and they only do the chorus on "Who Can I Trust" (with Cormega). A&R's were just using the "it" people of 1999 to promote their album. Also, I remember seeing the poster for this album and Missy was on there. Where is she on the album? The other songs aren't that great either: "Busta's "Bus-a-Bus Remix", Noreaga's "I Wanna F*** You", and surprisingly Mobb Deep's "Nobody Likes Me". Check the chorus by Prodigy: "Nobody likes me/Everybody hates me/So I gotta grab my gun." This was the start of Mobb Deep's downfall. Saving graces are Noyd's "S**t That He Said", Q-Tip's "Vivrant Thing", Mase, Mysonne and Eightball's "Do What Playas Do", and Beatnuts' "Beatnuts Forever". -EJR

1.0 out of 5 stars This CD is NOT as phat as it should have been., August 28, 1999

Aside from Q-tip, this album falls way short of my expectations. Save your money and wait for Q-tips full solo album. There is not another track on here worth listening too.
