Bizzy Bone - The Gift
West Coast Veteran:
Damn I been sleepin' on this album. Just copped it earlier today and it's fuckin' tight from beginning to end. I wish more rappers would have no guest appearances and maybe just one guest at the most.
Rating: 9/10
Doggystylin:
bizzy recorded this album in like this short period of time like a couple of weeks where he didnt drink one drop of alcohol and didnt take one puff of weed, so he says this album is a blessin, a gift....just wanted to let yall know how he got the name.

Bizzy Bone – The Gift
1. Schizophrenic…Perfect opening track. Many different elements to the beat. It sounds like an orchestra in the background. Bizzy’s lyrics go perfectly with this. 5/5
2. Don’t be dumb…Nice ragae feel to it. It’s strange, but it sounds good as hell. The title explains the song well enough. 4/5
3. Whole wide world…Sort of a laidback beat. I like the flute in the background. Tight lyrics. 4/5
4. Never grow…Bizzy sings a lot more in this song than rapping. Fits the beat quite nicely. 4/5
5. Murderah…Bizzy’s lyrics are decent, but I don’t really like the beat. 3.5/5
6. Before I go…Similar to ‘Thugs cry’. He tells the story from an inmate in jail. 4/5
7. Be careful…I’m really feelin’ this track. He uses a softer tone to flow over this one. Another great chorus. 4.5/5
8. Fried day…A good track with a real laidback beat about what else? Smokin’ weed. It really doesn’t add much to the CD since it was already released on the Next Friday soundtrack. 4/5
9. Voices in the head…Very unique track. Bizzy goes back and forth between himself and the voice in his head. My only complaint about it, is it’s not long enough. 4.5/5
10. Still thuggish ruggish…Nice production again. Tight flow. Bomb ass chorus. 4/5
11. Don’t doubt me…The beat sounds like a mix between West Coast and Mid-West. Sounds real good. He speaks of the current situation between him and Bone. 4/5
12. Time passing us by…Tight ass production. Perfect hook. Dope lyrics. 5/5
13. Father…On this track he flows more like he did on E. 1999. Tight ass lyrics. Decent production. 4/5
14. Jesus…Song dedicated to worship and Christianity. Very nice production. Bizzy’s voice sounds great. 3.5/5
OVERALL…4.5/5
This is a BIG improvement from ‘Heaven’z Movie’. Almost all of the songs were produced by Darren Vega, someone I’ve never heard of, but the beats fit Bizzy’s flow perfectly—about the next best thing to Uneek. Bizzy sings all of his own hooks and he has no guests at all on the entire album. But he doesn’t need them. This is one on true SOLO albums. Definitely the best Bone Thugs solo CDs yet.
