Customer Reviews:
An inspiration to us all.......2005-12-25
Even though he could have easily rested on his laurrels as one of the most talented basketball players of all time, Shaq continues to insist on plowing forward with his singing and acting carrers, despite seemingly having no talent in either field. He's like the little train going up the hill: I think I can, I think I can, I think I can. God bless you Shaq!
Classic Hip Hop... Even if Shaq's Rhymes are a bit weak.......2005-08-12
Let's be honest. Hip Hop is in a VERY sad state right now. If you're a fan of late-80s early-90s Hip Hop, then you'll enjoy this CD. The first song on the album "I'm Outstanding," is my favorite. It features a sample from the GAP Band's classic "Outstanding" and it also has a vocal feature from Yarbrough and Peoples' "Don't Stop the Music" that Hip Hop heads will appreciate. Another track "No Hooks" ("we don't need no hooks!") is produced by the RZA--a grimey early 90s RZA beat--he also lends a verse to the track, along with Method Man. This alone makes this album worth listening to.
On top of this, Eric Sermon (EPMD), Keith Murray and Red Man are also on the album.
Finally, the simple, yet banging, bass-heavy early 90's beats bring back good memories for fans of that era, from Malcom X hats and African medallions to Cross Colours and Hi Tech boots.
The Best?.......2005-07-10
Actually, this 'Best of Shaquille Oneal' album is one hour of silence. He did not have any hits. Ever.
Buy it for pure humor.......2005-02-19
If you're ever feeling sad, just pop this CD in and listen to "Biological Didn't Bother" in either of the two versions here. It's so unintentionally hilarious, which is kind of sad because Shaq is really sincere and seems like a really nice guy to boot. But you will find yourself laughing out loud at couplets like "I learned to dribble from right to left/I couldn't do a damn thing with all them F's" or when he names family members whose house he stayed at when "moms gotta go to work."
If you can track down a video clip of this song, it just intensifies the comedy. If this album were a satire of rap music (of which 98% in my opinion is just as bad as this record) then it would be an easy 5 stars. Happy listening!
(PS the other tracks are pretty comical too... "Yo Shaq, where ya at? Yo yo, I'm over here")
