CD Reviews
One of the finest No Limit CD's yet.

"I used to listen to No Limit all the time, they were running the rap game. But after long No Limit started producing records that weren't worth a dollar and I started to get skeptikal of their production. But on the other hand I've been listening to Mystikal since before he signed with No Limit. Personally I think his 2 albums before he signed with NL were better,but the cd doesn't dissapoint anyway, especially for a NL cd. Anyways, pretty much every track on this cd is tight. Not too many fillers just to take up space. My personal favorites are "Round Out The Tank", "I'm On Fire", "Whatcha Want Whatcha Need", "Keep It Hype", "Respect My Mind", "Let's Do It", and "What's Your Alias?". The only songs that are just TERRIBLE are "Life Ain't Cool" and "Stack Yo Chips" ( P ya ain't got that fire no more homie, go home). The rest of the tracks are solid tho. The Thing I really like about this cd is that it doesn't get old quickly. I bought it in December of 98 and last week I listened to it some more and it still got me hype. This cd is definately worth your money, in my view. If you're a fan of Mystikal or NL, you'll love it, but if you don't like 'em I bet you'll still like this cd. Even people who don't like rap should still like Mystikal's raw bust-yo-head military sqradron style. Support the REAL colonel of the tank, and buy this cd."

"Mystikal is the tighest of all time. All of his CD's are tight and if you didn't know there are four of them. Mystikal rap is in the league of the best rapper of all time with Tupac. No one will ever beat his style. Because "People that don't even listen to rap still by my tapes". He also has the tighest song and tighest beat of all time on the Mind of the Mystikal album, the song is "Here I Go". This song and beat can get anyone off there feat. If you don't believe me buy it and find out. Cause "That's the Rapper" "Respect My Mind" and I'm "Unpredictable" "Beware" because "I'm" the one that can't be stopped."
A Masterpiece!

"Mystikal delivers fantastic songs with this one. You have just got to love his vocals and lyrics he brings to the table. The album starts off well with it's intro and from there on out you stay hooked on it.
The only problem I had with it was, it can give you a headache. But be sure when your mad, just pop this in a walkmen and be on your way. :)"
