Album Reviews

Hip Hop Music Reviews and Rap CD Reviews – The only source you can trust!

A number of years ago a certain magazine ruined rap album reviews by rarely going outside 3 and 4.5 on the 5 point rating scale. To this day most cats stick within those parameters with hip hop music reviews and R’n’B reviews. HipHopDX is changing all that, we’re using everything between 0 and 5 and dissecting LP’s with knowledge and perspective not seen often anymore. Credible rap CD reviews are about the only way to sift through all the garbage out there these days, HipHopDX has got that.

Kanye West Presents...Malik Yusef - G.O.O.D. Morning, G.O.O.D. Night
Wednesday, June 24, 2009 | Comments: 16
Next time out if Yusef can be more strict when it comes to editing down his material he could potentially release an album that leaves the listener wanting more and not less
Willy Northpole - Tha Connect
Tuesday, June 23, 2009 | Comments: 26
With a unique voice, occasional forays into storytelling, and some instances of quality production, Tha Connect just manages to surpass average – but not by much
Cunninlynguists - Strange Journey Volume One
Monday, June 22, 2009 | Comments: 27
A handful of highlights can’t completely salvage the mixed bag found on Vol. 1. Sadly, the almost compilation-style/mixtape feel of the album is too disjointed for anyone anticipating a true follow-up to Dirty Acres to completely appreciate
Soul Assassins - Intermission
Sunday, June 21, 2009 | Comments: 19
Where there are enough shining moments sprinkled throughout to keep you interested, you’re likely to find yourself wondering why more care wasn’t taken to reduce the disparity between Intermission’s best and worst
50 Cent - War Angel LP
Friday, June 19, 2009 | Comments: 121
If War Angel is a preview to what the Queens emcee has in store for Before I Self Destruct, G-Unit fans around the world have something to look forward to come autumn
L.E.G.A.C.Y. - Suicide Music
Thursday, June 18, 2009 | Comments: 11
Even with the backlog of material these two have racked up, it still feels like Leg and Khrysis are finding each other. There is some seriously good music to dig into here, however sometimes it just doesn't mesh, which leaves more to be desired
Black Eyed Peas - The E.N.D.
Wednesday, June 17, 2009 | Comments: 59
You know an “urban” group can penetrate the “mainstream” when the only threatening band member is a crazy white chick, and the Black Eyes have paved their way based upon that
Street Sweeper Social Club (Tom Morrello/Boots Riley) - Street Sweeper Social Club
Tuesday, June 16, 2009 | Comments: 5
While the music itself swings between putting a fist, putting your hands, and simply just putting an L in the air, this is as good of a full length Rock-Rap collaborative effort as you’ll get since M.O.P.’s Mash Out Posse mosh-pit mayhem in 2004
