Editorial Reviews

Album Description
For some, the rocky road to success is easy to navigate. Take Atlanta rapper Rocko for instance. After working for years writing, producing and developing major label artists, Rocko realized no one was going to take his advice as well as himself. Proving he knew exactly what the rap game needed, just a year after becoming an artist himself, Rocko secured a deal with Def Jam Records. Thanks to the overwelming popularity of his Drumma Boi single "Umma Do Me," Rocko is now at the forefront of the new Southern movement in hip-hop where business acumen and consumer awareness reign supreme.


Customer Reviews

Formulated Garbage1
I got the joy of a co-worker buying this CD and giving me the opportunity to skim it on the way to lunch. He told me I have to hear the track "Umma do me". Yay, more formulatic hip hop garbage perpetuating the stereotype that rappers are idiots. Woo hoo. Where have you gone Paris? Where have you gone KRS-One? I'll just start with the do me song. First off, nice title. Is Umma a word I missed in my 16 years of schooling? As an english lit major, I thought I had seen most every word. Evidently not. Second, can this guy rap any slower? Sometimes I hear tracks, both rock and rap, and say to myself that I wish I had that kind of talent. There is not a person alive that doesn't have this guy's "talent". He raps slow, it's boring and has no point.

The rest of the CD is predictable with original ideas for songs like, "Dis Morning", "Hustle Fo", and "That's my money". Wow, I'm blown away. No one writes stuff like that in hip hop today. Dis afternoon umma going to go home without buying this piece of junk. The only hard decision is whether this is better or worse than Soulja Boy. Average just plowed into the barbed wire fence that is me again.

Def Jam signing ANYTHING!1
Dang homie. What happened to lyrics. He sound like Lil' Wayne...not realizing Wayne washed up. All his beats sound the same. If you got Young Jeezy 2005 classic "Trap or Die" mixtape....you listening to the same thing. He got T-Pain on a hook. Dont everybody. What happened to being original. The artist from the South suck.Sad part about it, I'm from the South. What happened to the real Def Jam? Russell, come back!

Sucks.1
Obvisouly, Rocko is just another lame, wack, dumb one-hit wonder (even though his song wasnt exactley a hit in the first place). His album is garbage, nobody bought it. Niether should you. Just let him fade away like the rest of them.
