He should have waited a few more days and maybe changed the title to 'First Week Back'. Boosie has some songs I love (see 'Regret It') but this just has too many boring, slow songs. Most of the better moments are the songs with more energy but they still aren't worth replaying. Beats: ★☆ Rapping/Bars: ★★ Hooks: ★★ Best Tracks: Jump, Words Mean More, Certified

This is a mixed bag. 'I Need You' is the clear standout and others listed below get the toe tapping but there is too much I'm not feeling from the Earth, Wind & Fire founder's solo debut. Best Tracks: Jamboree, I Need You, Lady Is Love, Invitation

T-Rock is as amazing as ever to listen to rap, but the production isn't as likeable as the usual instrumentation he has on his solo albums, there aren't as many memorable moments, and like most collaboration albums he does, the other artists don't live up to him. For example, 'No Remorse' is fairly lackluster until T-Rock comes in at the end. 'Friday 13th' is easily the best song with T-Rock killing it as he kicks the song off and adding a likeable hook too. Elsewhere, it's all listenable with a surprising feature from The Game on the previously released 'Block 2 Block', but for only eight songs, there isn't enough t revisit for a higher rating.

Chingy has been harshly rated as a rapper his entire career. He has always had an enjoyable flow with a unique voice, and some dope production behind him. This is another more than decent project. 'Can't Blame Me' feels like some of the best moments he had on his first two albums with its bouncy production plus a catchy hook. 'ALL CAPP' falls into the same category without being as strong. 'She Do It' is the only poor moment on the EP. The chorus sounds like something Soulja Boy wrote. Twista helps the song, but can't save it. 'DAT GOOD' is a decent slow jamz/pop rap song. The strengths of the project are 'Do Ya Thing' and 'Eurrthang'. It's a shame that 'Do Ya Thing' has a terrible feature though. Why does anyone like the mumbling, depressive, garbage delivery that T Hood brings? Only one bad feature and one bad song make this EP worth a listen if you like Chingy on the microphone. It's much better than I expected a Chingy project to be in '23. 1. Can't Blame Me 80 2. ALL CAPP 73 3. She Do It 30 4. DAT GOOD 60 5. Rewind Time 70 6. Do Ya Thing 80 7. Eurrthang 84 8.

If I didn't have the speed-up extension, I don't think I would have been able to finish this. It's so painfully unfunny with most of the jokes not coming close to landing.
