5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing album, possibly the best release of 05, May 12, 2005
This album totally caught me by surprise, in a good way. The introduction sets the stage perfectly and is followed by 14 beautifully laced tracks which you can listen to in any mood. Porcelain will touch your soul, Let's go will get you amped, Heavyweight will demonstrate Tonedeff's great rapping/writing ability while a track like Gathered will demonstrate his great singing talent.

Definitly an album for any Hip Hop head that is sick and tired of listening to the same music since '97. You will NOT be deceived.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buy it once, buy it twice, hell.... buy it thrice., May 12, 2005
By Trashcan And "Dedpool" (Allentown, PA USA) - See all my reviews
Archetype is the album that should be on constant rotation on every radio station. This is the the stuff that actually deserves to get played out. This is the album that lyrically and musically slaps any nay sayer across the face. Tonedeff is everything hip-hop should be. Blazing beats, heartfelt lyrics, and pure talent make Archetype, not only Tonedeff's best work thus far, but a arguable instant classic. Simply put, this album reminds me of Mortal Kombat....Flawless Victory. Buy it, in all honesty, you won't regret it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great in all aspects, May 11, 2005
Archetype brings a w hole new brand of hiphop to the table. You have a lil R & B, a lil fas rapping, story telling and pure ol' day battle rap songs all in 1 cd. most of the songs you can give several listens and still not get tired of it
