While I don't rate what I've heard from Ja too highly, nor do I rate him as a brilliant rapper, the hate seems over the top in some sections. Nonetheless, the pop-rap singles from Ja Rule would get better from here with me not feeling 3 of the 4 singles, 'Between Me and You', 'Put It on Me' and 'I Cry' much. None of the harder songs though are that bad, with a good run of three of them being featured around the middle of the album. The production does the job and as much as Ja Rule is probably known better as a pop rapper, his deep gritty voice-kind of like DMX-sounds good over gangster rap beats.
Best Tracks: 6 Feet Underground, Love Me Hate Me, Die, Extasy
