"...vomit. This album is awful. Not just awful, but DEADLY AWFUL with a capital A. When I tell you that this is the worst rap cd I have ever heard in my life, then trust me. I wish I could give this cd NO stars and I have never felt this way about any rap cd.Not even 50!! I can't even bring myself to talk about the songs. There is nothing original about these songs. They sound like an over-hyped production team who's name starts with a N (you know who I am talking about...check Kelis's cds). Plus Chingy has no rap skills. NONE!! I rather listen to Lil' Jon and the Eastside Boyz than this. I am glad I got this as a gift. I work hard for my money and I want quality when I buy something. This is NOT quality."
New Sound, But Still Unpolished

"Chingy, the newest MC from St. Louis, hometown of Nelly and the St. Lunatics, delivers his debut album on Disturbing Tha Peace Records, the label started by (until now) exclusively 'Dirty South' rapper Ludacris. While it's clear that Chingy has the ability to get the party started, that seems to be the only thing he's able to focus on without messing everything up."Jackpot" is almost entirely about women, and Chingy tries to be degrading and sensitive at the same time. "Sample Dat ..."really shouldn't be followed by "One Call Away". Anytime he tries to be the least bit serious, it comes off sounding stupid because of his odd voice. Fortunately, that doesn't happen often. You'll find that the best songs are the party/sex songs, and since that's what most of them are, Chingy gets at least 5 or 6 great tracks out of it."Right Thurr" and the remix are both real nice, and "Wurr's My Cash" a classy ... ballad comes off well. "Madd @ Me", "Sample Dat ...",and "Juice" are also worth listening to. The best track on the whole album is by far "Bagg Up" which allows Chingy to drop some surprisingly slick lyrics to a smooth beat.In the end, "Jackpot" is an album you should come to if you're looking for some decent driving or partying music, but if you're looking for subject matter, steer clear."

""Hell yeah this cd is awesome. Since this cd has cool songs, and vivid lyrics. So if your a DTP fan or rap cop this cd now."
This is the same person that has reviewed this CD at least 100 times in different accounts. I can tell because it's always the same review format: "This cd is awesome. Since blah blah blah." This person should never be allowed to use this site again because all he/she does is abuse it. All I would like to say to this person is: If you like this CD so much, instead of writing 100 two-sentence reviews on it, why don't you write us 3-4 paragraphs, and go into more detail on why you like it, and the good/bad things about this CD.

"People Don't Understand That HIP-HOP Is Being Destroyed By Bubble Gum, Fruity Cup Cake Rappers, You Are All LUCKY Tupac Isn't Here!!! Suburban Kids Honestly Don't Know Any Better, So What Do They Do? They Buy Into The Market/Publicity Schemes From The Industry, Which Typically Is The "We Are TRUE Gangsters, And We REALLY Came From The Streets Where We SOLD DOPE!" Type Of Image. Why Must We Rap About The SAME SH*T, All The Time! Money, Cars, Clothes, Weed, Alcohol, And Of Cousre Women! Oh And Then Of Course To Do A Song Just For The Ladies, Then Do A Few More About Thier Strory, How Bad That Had It And That's It, 14-17 Tracks, Thats What We Pay For!! 90 Percent Of These Rappers Wouldn't Exist If Tupac Was Here! All HIP-HOP Fans Need To Support Real Lyricists, TRUE Poetic, Philosophical, Revolutionary, Political MUSIC And NOT This HIP POP/POP HIP HOP!!! If It Wasn't For Nas, Jay-Z, DMX, And About 5 Other Artist, This "Culture" We Call HIP-HOP Would Be Completely Vanished, But Nevertheless It's Getting There!! Anyone Who Agrees Or Not, Let It Be KNOWN!

A few words on this pathetic excuse for a man

"Well Chingy seems to think he is a pimp. These rappers don't have real game, understand. The women you see them with are gold-diggers, they were attracted to these rappers beecause of their wealth, not their charisma, there is a big difference. I know a few kids who wish they could be like these rappers and have all these women. Don't be fooled my friend. Chingy may think that he is a rapper, but he is being milked systematically by his "women". I'll tell you what game is, Chingy and your wannabe friends at DTP: Game is when you approach a women and you don't flaunt your money and she is attracted to you. Now you understand Chingy!
Oh by the way, this Cd sucks horribly. The man is destroying the youth of America with his horrible slang. " I like the way you do that right thurr!" how very profound Chingy! Any other philosophies to share? "I'm chillin at the Holidae inn!" Oh great Chingy, so instead of finding you reading a book, we can simply find you at the Holidae inn. What a great role model!"
