Fabolous has always had some some good tracks, so let's have look at his fifth album, Loso's Way, to see what we can find.
The 'The Way Intro' is just "so so in case you ain't no so." The beat is monotonous and I feel something could have been added to it. The next two tracks I'm diggin. Jeremih on 'My Time' reminds me of R. Kelly which is a good thing and I like the line before the hook in 'I'mma Do Me' - "My attitude is celibate, I don't give a f***." It's not the work of Shakespeare, but it's a good lead up to the chorus. 'Feel Like I'm Back'' is enjoyable to some degree but the slow drawn out vocals in the chorus brings it down. 'Everything, Everyday, Everywhere' is boring and probably the worst track from the disc. 'There He Go' is the next track that does a lil' bit for me but is still nothing to write home about and the "There He Go" in the track reminds me of 'Dare He Go' from Drug Abuse by Dice - just thought I'd mention that.
Following that is the pop rap track 'The Fabolous Life' which is one of the better ones on this disc. Then 'Making' Love' is okay, but not near Ne-Yo's and Fabo's very good collab 'Make Me Better' from Fabolous' last album, which featured some good tracks. 'Pachanga' ain't bad featuring a bit of a soulful beat, like I've said in many reviews recently though, this is another track let down by the chorus. The verses are good though backed by a nice beat. 'Stay' finally mixes up the subject matter and talks about being a father and the responsibilities that go with it. It's far from brilliant but mixes it up. Then the album finishes well with the rap crime story, 'I Miss My Love', which will grow on you every time you play it.
To sum up, this contains four to five songs that I'd be happy to continue to hear which all but earn this the 2/5 I have given it at the moment, but the many below average tracks make Loso's Way an overall disappointing album from Fabolous. Like with 'From Nothin' to Somethin'', more often than not the radio friendly rap tracks are done better than the 'real rap'.
Best Tracks: My Time, I'mma Do Me, The Fabolous Life, I Miss My Love.
