 | Something Like Human by Fuel
Buy used from: $0.01 The problem with this album is that most of the songs are about the same thing: bad relationships. The songs aren't necessarily bad, but they should learn to change the subject sometimes.

 | Halfway Between the Gutter and the Stars by Fatboy Slim
Buy new: $18.98 / Used from: $0.01 After the song and video for "Weapon Of Choice", everyone will come to the conclusion that this is another Fatboy Slim classic. WRONG! This album has very tired mixes and beats. Very disappointing.
|
 | Melvin Flynt - Da Hustler by Noreaga
Buy new: $17.98 / Used from: $3.49 AVOID THIS ALBUM AT ALL COSTS. It's so bad I couldn't even finish listening to it. After "Superthug" from album 1, it's hard to believe anyone could take such a dive. What happened, Nore?
|
 | We Are the Streets by LOX
Buy new: $18.98 / Used from: $3.99 The first nine songs are okay, but the last nine--there's the main problem right there: too many songs. Among other problems are the sing-songy "Y'all F****d Up Now" and the boring "Scream L.O.X."
|
 | Violator: The Album by Various Artists
Buy used from: $0.01 This is the weirdest compilation I ever heard of. Songs with uncreative titles are juggled with an equal amount of unknowns and rappers you'd rather NOT know.
|
 | Booty Call: The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
Buy new: $11.98 / Used from: $0.01 I spoke too soon. THIS is the weirdest compilation I ever heard of. BSB, Gerald LeVert and Too Short on the same album? Oh yeah, most of the songs are terribly wack.
|
 | MP da Last Don by Master P
Buy used from: $2.10 The only person that shines on this album is Snoop Dogg, on two tracks. Otherwise, this album should be safely stored in your nearest dumpster.
|
 | Bonafide by Jon B.
Buy used from: $0.01 Reading the lyrics will make you not even want to listen to the songs, especially "Pants Off". "Someone To Love" is good--in fact, it's the only really decent song on the whole album.
|
 | Dirty Little Secret by Stella Soleil
Buy used from: $0.01 All I can say is, it's hard to tell whether she's being serious or playing around.
|
 | Methods of Mayhem by Methods of Mayhem
Buy new: $18.98 / Used from: $0.31 Could a REAL lyricist step up to the mic, please? The drummer-turned-lead-singer thing only works for Phil Collins, Dave Grohl and Brad Arnold.
|
 | All Day, All Night by Changing Faces
Buy new: $9.98 / Used from: $0.24 Two good things: the overplayed "G.H.E.T.T.O.U.T." (I don't know why they spelled it like that) and the only good remake of Cyndi Lauper's "Time After Time". Other than that, YAWN.
|
 | Embrya by Maxwell
Buy new: $8.99 / Used from: $0.96 I hate to say anything bad about Maxwell, but this album will put you to sleep faster than watching Living Out Loud.
|
 | I Got The Hook Up! Original Motion Picture Soundtrack by Various Artists
Buy used from: $1.50 With the exception of "Let's Ride", you'll find many weak lyrics spit by washed-up rappers, but what do you expect from a No Limit soundtrack?
|
 | Tonight by Silk
Buy new: $11.98 / Used from: $3.74 "Let's Make Love", "Meeting In My Bedroom", "Sexcellent"...are you noticing a pattern here? None of the songs are necessarily bad, but you just wish they'd talk about something else for once.
|
 | Keep the Faith by Faith Evans
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $1.14 The three songs she released were good. As for the rest...anybody got a pillow?
|
 | Forever by Bobby Brown
Buy used from: $0.02 I got this album free from a music club I was in. Lord knows I wouldn't have PAID for it.
|
 | This Ain't a Game by Ray J
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $0.01 Apparently Ray J thinks the music business IS a game. He was better when he wasn't hardcore. And why is he on Tha Row Records now? He can't rap. He can barely sing.
|
 | Welcome to Our World by Timbaland & Magoo
Buy used from: $10.59 After hearing this album, you'll be sorry you ever came to their world. Timbaland should know that all producers aren't rappers (actually, MOST producers aren't), but he's not half as bad as Magoo.
|
 | Indecent Proposal by Timbaland & Magoo
Buy used from: $3.50 Things went from bad to worse here. Lazy beats, tired rapping, and sorry guest spots explains why nobody even bothered to buy this.
|
 | Men In Black: The Album by Various Artists
Buy new: $11.98 / Used from: $0.01 When everyone raves about how dope the opening and closing theme music is, doesn't that tell you something about the rest of the soundtrack?
|
 | Return of the Mack by Mark Morrison
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $1.80 Where should I begin? "Crazy"? "Moan And Groan"? "Get High With Me"? You HAVE to be high to listen to this twice. This CD got stolen from me. Interesting--I was thinking of PAYING someone to steal it.
|
 | Phenomenon by LL Cool J
Buy used from: $0.01 This album was just strange. Dope guest stars seemed to make the songs WORSE. Also, the slow jams just don't work.
|
 | Mya by Mya
Buy new: $13.98 / Used from: $0.01 Can anybody remember anything about this album? 'Cause I sure can't.
|
 | Gangsta's Paradise by Coolio
Buy new: $13.98 / Used from: $0.01 I don't see what all the hype was about this album. Sure, the released songs were good, but most of the remaining tracks were watered down by unknown guest stars, and they had uncreative choruses.
|
 | Round One: The Album by Roy Jones Jr.
Buy used from: $32.80 Calling this album bad is an understatement. The fact that someone actually signed him tells me that music has reached a new low.

Listmania!
