CD DetailsSynopsis
Amazon.com The Mix Tape Vol. 3 was subtitled The Final Chapter. And that's what it should have been. But DJ/hip-hop opportunist Funkmaster Flex has once again rounded up the usual suspects for 26 cuts of his all too familiar mix tape flair. The LOX's Jadakiss continues his endless campaign for a solo career with the synthed-out "I Don't Care." M.O.P. go uncomfortably commercial with their remix of the underground hit "Ante Up," which features king of hip-hop crossover Busta Rhymes and newcomer Remy Martin. Faith Evans and Ginuwine add new and somewhat interesting R&B flavor, and Eminem and the D-12 impress as always on the bass-heavy "Words Are Weapons." Nature's "The Needle" is also a gem. But the rest is just costume jewelry--Flex Protégés Inc. and artists who come off like they're just doing it for the exposure. Without Flex's filler and ad-libs, the true funk here would probably add up to only 20 minutes. --Kenji Jasper Similar CDsSimilarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsIf you liked last year's "The Tunnel", you'll like this CD J. Highsmith | Mitchellville, Maryland United States | 12/12/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "Funkamster Flex is back with another one. Although, I never bought any one of his volumes before this one, I decided to purchase this CD because I liked Funkmaster Flex and Big Kap's "The Tunnel". That CD was a mixed CD just like this one and it impressed me with the roster of rappers on the CD and how each of them made contributions, to make "The Tunnel" one of rap's best CDs of last year. On Volume 4, Funkmaster Flex brings us more of the same this time around. The 1st single, "Do You" features DMX and it's one of the best songs that DMX has put out in a while. Funkamster Flex has a little bit of everything on this CD: east coast rap, down south rap, as well as some r&b tracks as well. Jagged Edge shows up with a remix of "Did She Say" w/Lil Bow Wow, JD and Da Brat. This song is definitely tight. However, you know what the best thing about this CD is and that's the new tracks from your favorite rappers. Jadakiss of the LOX definitely has a hit on his hands with "I Don't Care". This track will definitely have fans wanting the Jadakiss solo CD ASAP. MOP also shows up with a remix of their smash "Ante Up" w/Busta Rhymes, Remy Martin, & Tephlon. The infamous Slim Shady, Eminem and D-12 show up with a tight song "Words Are Weapons". This song will have his fans awaiting the D-12 CD from Detroit's finest. My favorite two tracks on this CD are a Notorious BIG classic with DJ Mister Cee called "The Wickedest". This track sounds like it came straight from the Biggie archives but in the year 2000 is still sounds tight. My personal favorite on the whole CD has to be "What Son What" from Capone N Noreaga. The track is produced by Swizz Beats and has the group from Queens at their finest. Anyone that likes hip hop as much as I do will enjoy this CD. Funkmaster Flex and company did a good job putting this CD together." ONLY: 30 MINUTES OF TRUE FUNK Brian | East Coast | 02/25/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "I thought half of the songs were hot but the others were pretty whack. Songs from DMX, Shyne, and Eminem brought the automatic hits. The track from Naughty was phat, and the Nelly and Drag On songs were surprisingly good. And Lil Kim and Ginuwine brought some different vibes. The final joint on the CD made a good final impression with Fabolous rippin up a freestyle. But like I said only half of it was good. The other half belonging to JadaKiss, MOP, and Saukratese could be left at the studio. Best song on the album: Ludakris, Block Lock Down. The good half of the CD is enough to pay back for the bad side." Mixed bag Russell Witheyman | 12/16/2000 (3 out of 5 stars) "Whilst there are undoubtedly some good tracks on this album i don't really know how flex can call this a mix tape , there is no mixing or scratching like there was on his first 3 mix vol's. This is more like his last cd "the tunnel" which had tracks by flex with guest artists , well this is really what that was. All the tracks bar one were made for this cd and feature flex himself. That said if you are just interested in the tracks then there are some good efforts here , mainly the single do you and ante up with busta rhymes. Also worth a mention are the tracks by eminem and faith evans. The album does tail off badly towards the end with some mediocre tracks but there should be enough on here to please most people , but just do'nt expect any mixing."
