5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the wait. Perfect album. Best release this year., March 20, 2006
By N. Diaz (Pasadena) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Chino XL is a beast on the mic. I was kind of worried that maybe this album would have Chino trying to get into the mainstream with some cheesy songs.... Nope. Chino XL returned back to his underground roots and dropped probably the best album to come out since Canibus's "Rip the Jacker". The tracks/beats are dope and original. Chino stepped up his already untouchable lyrics and ripped it. I did not skip a track. I can honestly say that this CD will be heralded as a classic. There is no way you will not love this cd if you purchase it. The special guests are very suprising. Killah Priest did his thing and held his own...but the suprise was Proof of D12...I did not know that he could rap like that. much props. buy this album. or hate yourself later for not buying it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bubble gum rappers need to stop rapping now., March 28, 2006
By R. A. Hill "RACASO" (Springfield, MA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
"Nelly dissing KRS-One, we got to stop him". There's no album this year that will compare to Poison Pen. Chino XL is one of the best lyricist alive. This is a definite banga. You won't be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Messiah, June 24, 2006
I read a review that said Chino Xl is too much like Eminem and he took his style? Eminem jacked chino's style and used it for himself there is no one out there with a style like Xl, once he signs to a major label, hes gonna rule the rap game
