5 out of 5 stars Boston Represents!.......2006-02-23

This Ed OG cd bangs from start to fininsh. The beats by Pete Rock and Diamond D are bananas. It is good to know that there are still some solid hip hop artist out who have real skills. They just do it as a art. You do not have to conform to Mtv or
BET. Thanks to Pete Rock and Ed OG for putting together a classic masterpiece.

4 out of 5 stars Tries Hard To Be A Classic.......2005-08-08

I Heard this from one of my friends, and i just had to have it. Coming straight from Boston, this rapper puts in a very good effort, and for as short as this album is, its surprisingly good. The Album features production from none other then Pete Rock. You can tell he has a very good style from the opening track "Boston".

1. Boston - 5/5 - Very good production, and good lyrics.

2. Just Call My Name - 2/5 - this is one the weakest song on the whole album. not very good production, but Edo.G Knows how to spit.

3. Voices - 5/5 - I Love songs like this. Very good production again. Hook is strong.

4. School Em' - 2/5 - You can tell this song is Inspired by DJ Premier. sounds very similiar to one of the many classic joints produced by DJ Premier, but it honestly cant touch them.

5. Streets Is Callin' - 1/5 - This is not my cup of tea, aweful beat, but good lyrics as usual.

6. Pay The Price - 4/5 - Catchy Tune, followed by great lyrics and great guest appearance.

7. Wishing - 4/5 - Very similar to Twista's "Hope" A song about a better life.

8. Right Now - 5/5 - Probebly another DJ Premier inspired track. Very good production this time though, and probebly the best song on the album.

9. Stop Dat - 4/5 - Again, seems inspired by DJ Premier. Decent beat, and lyrical fire as we already expect.

10. Revolution - 3/5 - Listenable, but not the most enjoyable. Good lyrics like always.

Overall: 35/50
Average: 3.5/5

A very Good effort, with a little work im sure Edo.G Can put out a classic.

4 out of 5 stars Decent Hip-Hop Album.......2005-07-27

I remembered this album as I was prepping my Guru review. On My Own Worst Enemy is Ed O G's sixth studio album. The album is a straight up hardcore hip-hop album, no fluff, no strong attempts to be radio friendly. The album has instant street credibility and EDO.G doesn't shy away from the fact that he thinks that he is still on top of his game. As for EDO.G himself, he sounds pretty angry on some of the tracks, perhaps that is just his lyrical style. The production on the album is tight, the beats are crazy. Seven of the ten tracks on the album were produced by Pete Rock. Artists featured on the album include Diamon D, Jaysaun, Masta Ace, and Krumb Snatcha. The album is being released by Fat Beats Records.

4 out of 5 stars ED & Pete.......2005-06-12

I was very pleased to hear that Edo g had put out an album within recent times. Although the album is short (10 songs) each track is thorough. Even the tracks feat. artists are tight work. Ed's lyrics are nice and Pete Rock's beats sound really good as well. This cd is real Hip Hop. It is refreshing to hear something like this.

5 out of 5 stars The most slept-on emcee ever.......2005-03-07

Considered to be one of the most slept-on emcees of our era (and even the "Golden Era"), EdO.G makes a classic attempt in his 6th studio album, My Own Worst Enemy. The album, instead of filling up disk space, goes the route of quality as EdO.G enlists the talent of Pete Rock for most of the beats on this 10-track banger. Other soundscapes come from DJ Revolution, DJ Supreme One, and D.I.T.C. beatsmith Diamond D, with vocalism from Jaysaun, Masta Ace, and Krumb Snatcha. EdO.G himself says that this "one will remind us of the days when hip-hop was in its prime." Yes, yes ya'll, to the beat ya'll. Newjack education or purist nostalgia on this here Fatbeats Records' release.
