V 4.0.......2005-04-26

Violator the management company of many hip-hop/rap artist released volume 2 of their heaviest hitters. The beats featured on "Intro" starts of with a lot to come on this compilation. The first two songs which were produced by The Neptunes were big for both Busta Rhymes and Noreaga. LL Cool J came out with something harder that we haven't heard from him in a while with "Put Your Hands Up". "Livin' In Da City" featured Da Franchise & Butch Cassidy over a west coast banger went well with their flow. The innovative "Sexual Chocolate" by Cee-Lo is in a category of its own. The upbeat beat on "Hoppin' In My Car" is something to bounce to from Hollyhood. The more dramatic of all, "Die 3" could have been a standout with its violins, but The Outfit could have put a little more seasoning on here. Still it's a personal favoriate. Beware of track 11, because it actually contains two songs and the second one "Options" is a good combination of Capone & Noyd. This album is better than some of these artist's releases. If you're a hip-hop/rap fan with a diverse collection, this is a good addition.

Good Compilation.......2004-12-29

For starters, this album is better than the first, it has more good songs and 2 classics as well as 7 great songs, the remaining 7 are not too good or horrible songs (2 are average). A lot of different artists are on the album much like the first Violator, and all songs are produced by different people (except 3 producers do 2 songs each) so you get a lot of different styles and beats on the album. Most of the artists are big names and a few groups are collaborating on this album, with one member from each group, so you may think the collaborations are somewhat odd but they are some of the better songs on here. A good album to have for the 9 very good songs and the 2 ok ones, I'd recommend it.

#2 - 6 (Busta rhymes f/ kelis)
#3 - 9 (Noreaga f/ neptunes -- also on his "God's Favorite" album)
#4 - 7 (LL cool J)
#5 - 9 (Da Franchise f/ butch cassidy -- good beat)
#6 - 10 (Classic gangsta song by Noreaga & Styles -- great beat)
#7 - 7.5 (memphis bleek & geda k -- the beat is a little annoying but the lyrics are on point)
#8 - 9.5 (jojo pelligrino makes a good remake of Rakim's classic "Microphone Fiend" -- great beat)
#9 - 3 (Cee-Lo of goodie mobb -- I'm not a fan of his so i don't like this song)
#10 - 4.5 (missy elliot, ja rule, tweet -- R&B song)
#11 - 9 (havoc, fat joe, remy martin)
#11 (10 - Classic -- Big Noyd & Capone --song starts after the one before it ends)
#12 - 9.5 (Prodigy & jadakiss f/ butch cassidy)
#13 - 3 (baby j, likcel reg, crisis, chedda boy)
#14 - 9.5 (jojo pelligrino f/ kurupt -- great beat)
#15 - 1 (horrible song by hollyhood)
#16 - 8.5 (caddillac tah, fabolous, remy martin, Red Cafe of da Franchise, Fortune, jojo pelligrino, ...)
#17 - 5 (meka, rah digga, spliff star)

Sexual Chocolate Tastes Good to Me.......2003-01-11

... The five stars are for this song only. "Sexual Chocolate" is the bomb. No doubt. Very sexy, a guaranteed dancefloor filler. Cee-Lo sets it off by layering vintage 70's dirty, funk rhythm guitars and horns over a hard hip-hop beat. Things heat up as his lyrics describe dancefloor flirtations that lead to sexual encounters. The song catches fire at the chorus when Cee-Lo calls out repeatedly and lustily, "I feel like freakin' tonight." As the song nears its conclusion, Cee-Lo lets loose his voice in a passionate soul freak out. So what are you waiting for? C'mon and freak somebody. Ooooh Lawd...

Livin' The Life.......2002-12-24

This album falls just short of great because some of the tracks are of poor quality. The best tracks are Livin' The Life and Grimey. The rest are ok, except pop rappers like Ja Rule and LL Cool J should of been left off. Get the album for some nice beats though
