CD Reviews
As far as soundtrax go, Next Friday is above average
J. Storm | The Abyss | 12/21/1999

"It's a topic most heads dont like discussing---the dreaded hip-hop soundtrack. But "Next Friday" is actually better than most. "Fried Day" by Bizzy Bone is an amazingly smooth joint reminiscent of "Buddah Lovaz" by Bone Thugs. "Chin Check," the first new NWA track in years, is a great track, but its hard to think of it as NWA with Snoop instead of Eazy. "Shaolin Worldwide" by Wu succeeds, as does "Murder Murder" by Eminem, a track which was originally on his Slim Shady EP. Other decent trax by Pharoahe Monch & Krayzie Bone contribute to the success of the album. The big (and I mean BIG) downfall of this album is the HORRIBLY WACK lead single by Ice Cube, "You Can Do It." As you listen to him chant the chorus "you can do it put your back into it" it makes you wonder what happened to the Cube of the early 90's that we knew and loved."
Lil' zane took this cd from a 3 to a 5

"lil' zane tore it up, without a doubt that was the tightest song on the cd. The other good songs were the Ja Rule, Dre, Eminem, and Kurupt tracks."
Bumps For Sure

"for any true hip-hop fan Next Friday combines the tightest beats and get down lyrics than any soundtrack I have ever seen. Every type of artist you could possibly crave, is packed together on this jam pcked power punch. Every song is phat and yo can play the whole damn cd from start to finish and it will be tight the whole way. Especially check out Lil Zane, Vita and Ja Rule, NWA Biuzzy Bone Ice Cube and WU Tangs Tracks. This bumps"
