Wu-Tang Clan killa bee Ghostface Killah delivers The Big Doe Rehab, the follow up to his critically-acclaimed album Fishscale. Ghostface proves he is one of the "wickedest, least predictable MCs of this era,” on an album “jammed full of dense, smoggy New York chaos,” according to Billboard.com. Rolling Stone gives Ghostface four stars declaring: “[R]ight now is a good time to be a Wu-Tang fan.”
Bow Wow and Omarion recently released their collaborative album, Face Off. Filling Jay-Z's and R. Kelly's shoes “is no easy feat," observes Blender, "but thanks to slick production and stay-in-your-head melodies, the duo nearly rises to the challenge.” Entertainment Weekly loves the collab: "[T]ogether, Bow (he of quicksilver flow) and O (he of slender harmonies) are urban-pop Wonder Twins.”
Philadelphia rapper and Roc-A-Fella act Freeway returns with his sophomore effort, Free At Last. Popmatters laments “the absence of producers Just Blaze and Kanye West” and longs for the days when “the Roc’s sound was based on sped-up soul samples and sparkling drums." Pitchforkmedia gives Freeway a solid 7.7 score: “The title of this album isn't a mere play on words… [it's] a portrait of someone who's still discovering his own identity.”
Houston rap pioneer Scarface returns with his seventh studio album, M.A.D.E.. Allmusic.com finds the veteran rapper on point: "Scarface [is] doing everything right, delivering those cold, hardcore rhymes over uncomplicated, soulful beats” while the The New York Times applauds Scarface's quality-over-quantity approach: “[M.A.D.E.] lasts barely 40 minutes, just long enough to provide a satisfying dose of stories and boasts, delivered in a rich, bluesy voice that often makes him seem even older than he is.”
