Waste of money and time (HALF STAR)

"I rarely take the time to review any multi-media, but I had to speak out on this one. When I saw there was a new Nip album out I was hyped for a minute. I was involved with Nip and many other locals in the late 80's/early 90's (rip WD). This rapper was a pioneer in his time, 1992 - "South Park Psycho" and 1993 - "Psychic Thoughts" are masterpieces. I took a chance and shelled out the high price for "Return Of The Psychopath", LOW AND BEHOLD this cd is poor quality all around (come on it's 2004!)....it sounds like it is just a compilation of unreleased boring filler tracks (maybe because it is) from Nip's post 1996 "Psychotic Genius" album. As much as it hurts every Nip fan to acknowledge and accept that he fell off big time and shouldn't be in the game at all. This type of album is not only embarassing, it's losing him (and or his label) money for unmoved units of a product that is sub-par to most regional cookie cutter rappers. Not one song stands out, beats are plain and boring, lyrics are so cliched and played out (I swear I should have known this when I saw the album cover). The cd has Black Market Records listed as Nip's label...which makes sense and goes hand in hand with this soon to be $1.98 throw-away discount rack cd (Black Market went bankrupt and is now a ghost label, and the Singletons are good at throwing around small ammounts of money to buy (or steal as they did to Lynch) artist's b-side tracks and compile them into poorly mastered "new albums". What really got me angry the most was the price of this cd, it should be sold for a quarter of the list price....as a matter of fact mine is going up for sale NOW for $1.98! Stick with Nip's "South Park Psycho" and "Psychic Thoughts", they are overpriced as well (due to being long out of print), but worth every cent. STAY AWAY FROM THIS ONE AT ALL COSTS! RTS Nip...see you soon"

"Ganxsta NIP is back with "The Return of The Psychopath" his first release since 1998. There is something for all NIP fans on this new offering as NIP blends his Psycho Thug style with the Psychopath of old...There are a few songs from his earlier work "Psycho Thug" included and the rest are all new NIP for the new millenium. If your a Ganxsta NIP fan this is a must have. Although I prefer his forst 2 cd's to any other, this is another solid effort by the King of Horrorcore rap!"
