50 Cent: The Massace: Special Edition [CD/DVD]

[28.Nov.05] :. Fiddy's no Brando, he probably isn't even a Tupac, but he can do a good imitation of someone writing a rhyme on the decks of a production studio or looking out the window of a tour van.

AZ: A.W.O.L.

[18.Nov.05] :. AZ is a ninja-Zorro-pirate-samurai-Neo-Tony Montana-Shaft-ass mofo on the mic, for serious!"

Young Jeezy: Let's Get It: Thug Motivation 101

[1.Nov.05] :. Guess Who's Bizzack! Young Jeezy blazed the mix tape scene. His Def Jam debut proves Jay-Z knows how to treat his 'new bitch, corporate America'.

Tony Yayo: Thoughts of a Predicate Felon

[18.Oct.05] :. These big-budget CDs are interesting for the same reasons we go see the summer blockbuster: to check out this year's latest special effects introduced in basically the same story we watched last summer.

PopMatters Pick

Music

Animal Collective: Sung Tongs

[6.May.04] :. Sung Tongs is an inch more sublime than anything they've done previously, with more phenomenal use of their manic choir of Motown vocals, less scattered, clique-ish dissonance, and more sideshow bubblegum-pop freaking out on god-knows-what powerful substance.
