Black Rob joined the mob there ain't no replacing him....

"Over the past year, in my opinion, Bad Boy has hardly had any accomplishments: The LOX went to the Ruff Ryders camp, Mase retired, and Puffy released an album. Despite these and other troubles, Bad Boy has finally released another classic album, "Life Story" by Black Rob. After listening to this album, you'll think to yourself that maybe, just, maybe Bad Boy has a future. The CD begins with the powerful title track, that has BR explaining how times were hard and that he thanks his mother for what she tried to do to make them easier. From then on you will here nothing but bangin' joints for the rest of the CD. "Lookin At Us w/ Cee-Lo of The Goodie Mob, "Espacio w/Lil' Kim, the outdated "Can I Live" w/The LOX. The song has Jadakiss giving Puffy props about puttin' the LOX down and showing them the right ways to make money. (What's wrong with that picture?) Other highlights include "Jasmine" w/ Carl Thomas, "You Don't Know Me w/ Joe Hooker and the current single and best song on the album, "Whoa!". After 2 listens of "Life Story" you'll see that Black Rob is a storyteller and the way he crafts his stories are comparable to the Notorious one himself. Move On Black Rob Move On!"
Don't judge a rapper by his ceo!

"For all of you who thought bad boy was gone, your wrong. Need we forget that while we were bumpin' 112's anywhere and Faith Evan's that Puffy produced them? But anyway, Rob is a tight MC, part meth, part big. He can take marginal beats (like on down the line joint and pd world tour)and turn out a pretty good song. While doing my initial preview of the album, these song sounded bad, but after a complete listen thye were pretty tight. Give him a tight beat (muscle game, br, life story) and the result is incredible. I wish there wasn't so many guest mc's, cause rob doesn't need them. He usually embarasses them. I personally have no problem with (got both albums), but don't make the mistake of not buying life story cause he produced it. You might think it's alright in the begining, but trust me, it'll grow on u quick."

"Black Rob's album might be the best hip-hop album to come along in along time from the East. The lyrics are on point and Puffy's Hitmen crew lay the perfect backdrop. Don't playa hate and not buy this album because it's a puffy project, because it's not. It's 100% Black Rob and 100% pure hip-hop. Whoa is only a small sample of the hot songs on this album, deffintely not close to the best cut. If you think Beanie Sigel is good, you will love this. Didn't give it 5 stars just because I think only albums such as Illmatic, the Chronic, and the Imfamous should garner that title. And as this album is phat, it's deffinitley not hip-hop changing as those, but close to it. You'll be bumping this album deep into the summer."
