[AlerG]

you said finally someone sees real quality but that guy never even heard the cd like he said in his post, so how does he see real quality? that cd was a 3 at the most...black rob is tight but the cd wasn't, peace.

[Siberian_Wolf]

Street shit looks good, but you know... it's easier to read APPEARANCES than APEREANCES, right?

But anyway thanx 4 da review. Now I'll try to get tha album from somewhere 2 burn the good tracks.

[I TO DA GEEZY]

he heared "whoa" alerg.....and there iz even better trackz on tha album.

[RivieraIII]

See I-GEEZY, we can both agree on certain things. Black Rob's album is a certified banger, no question. He's a great great storyteller. "Jasmine" is... Hell, y'all just gotta listen to it! I also give LIFE STORY a 4.25 or a 4.5/5. Peace out...

[I TO DA GEEZY]
