My opinion on the album:
I
think the album was good, alot different from what he has done in the past
but still dope as hell. The album starts off with the song "living"
which some of his "mind blowin" album lyrics were used, that
song pretty much shows his new style. The next song "scars"
has alot of meaning, he raps about his rough childhood and how he has lost
all respect for his father and he is just going to stay true to his
real family, that song has to be one of my favorites, it has a great beat
and the lyrics are straight from ice's heart. Song four "f**k
me" tells the world that you can bash him as much as you want but
he's not going anywhere, he knows what got him famous and he is thankful
for that but there is way too much crititsim about it. Song six "zig
zag stories" the name speaks for itself, just about getting
high, pretty good song. Song seven "too cold" is a hard
core remix of "ice ice baby" although he leaves out 1/3
of the original song. its still good, the david bowie riffs are gone and
replaced by some heavy guitars and his old rap flow is replaced by
more of a yelling. I personly like the old school version better
but nothing will top that. Song 8 "prozack" is basicly
a slower version of the song he did for blood hound gang "boom"
the beat is different and it starts off alot slower but picks up about
half way through the song, a few new lyrics were added,but again,
I like the older one better, it was just faster and better flowing. The
next track, "s.n.a.f.u" stands for "situation normal all
fucked up". I guess it means that he is back and won't stop
untill he's back at multi-platinum.and he is not going to be played.
Also, Jimmy Pop from blood hound gang raps the second verse. It's
a good fast song that will get you pumped up. Track 10 "a.d.d"
is more of a slow song, not alot of rapping though. He talks mainly
about his fears and how he can't hide from himself. The beat
is real slow and soothing, a good song to relax and think to. Song
11 "stompin' through the bayou" a good song with a good
beat, although i'm not for sure on the meaning. It sounds like
he is destorying the enemy, like in war combat or somthing, I don't
know. Track 12 "the horny song", this name also speaks
for itself. Shows how much of a mac he is with the fly
honeys. A very sexual song, another one of my favorites. The
last song "freestyle" is just a bunch of different rappers
taking turns on the mic. Vanilla does a short verse, but flows
very well. And the rest of the people I have no idea who they
are, but I can tell you this, none of them flow like the Iceman... To conclude
my opinion on the album, I feel the album was a great success, I
really don't have any complants, except for I feel Vanilla should'nt have
cut out 1/3 of "ice ice baby" and I would have liked to
see him do some more freestyle. But thats it. It's a great
album and I enjoyed it along with many others...
