Title: B-Real - Smoke & Mirrors what you think of the album????
Post by: Skeptic on April 09, 2010, 04:25:20 PM: yo i was listenin to cypress hill iv the other day and remembered I never picked up the B-real solo album.

so i went to the store was about to buy it but then saw on the back nearly every song had someone featured on it, I think maybe one song was entirely solo

So I wanted to ask yall what yall thought before I picked it up, how is it & is it worth buying?

also does B-real get personal on any of the tracks like talk about his life much cause im interested in that too sometimes they do that on their solos kinda like what evidence did on his solo away from dilated peoples

let me know

peace

but IMO the hook on Children Of The Night is damn near amazin and is classic...bo rocc can still spit and damn he came thru with a banger
i was lookin forward to this album but it was a letdown....way too many features....of the same rapper for the most part...and the production isnt all the way dope

I'll pick it up if I see it cheap one day, otherwise until then i won't get it
