"The only thing I dont like about this CD is the fact that DJ OnPoint won't stop talkin on Budden's vocals...The Songs are tight...but this is basically a mixtape...I would've prefered this being an advance album of The Growth..."
Are you in the mood?

"Jump off Joe Budden aka That Dude is one of those cats I knew off but never paid any real attention too as I just passed him off as any other rapper, and being what you would consider a 'real head' I had no intention of checking for him. I happened to hear a couple joints of 'Mood Music' and was hugely impressed by his awesome flow and excellent lyrics, so I thought I'd give him a go and cop the whole thing and boy I am glad I did. As I mentioned Joe has a near flawless flow and a brilliantly creative way with words, not only that he is also one of the deepest dudes around. He gets deep and introspective on many of the tracks and disperses a staggering number of bars, and upon listening to this I'm convinced he's one of the most talented cats around, and all this praise has been earned by Joe as it's coming from someone who didn't even really care about dude before hearing 'Mood Music'. Just to make sure I wasn't trippin' I gave a friend of mine a copy and he too was totally blown away. 'Mood Music' is as good as any album out so considering the fact it's more of a mixtape is all the more amazing. I cannot recommend this CD more nor can I hold Joe Budden in any higher regard. Please do yourself a massive favour and purchase a copy, as I can't think of an artist or CD more deserving of your well earned money."
Boring - Not a true album; Mixtape material

"First off, do not be fooled. This is not an album it is a mixtape. Bernard buddens was axed from all major labels after his poor selling debut album. As a result, he tried to pass this offas an album. Cant fool me. Not 1 song is listenable. His voice is altered via machine. No cohesiveness. boring, bland."
