The B. Came, not really!

After reading my post about Beanie Sigel's album yesterday I was supllied with what a person (Who shall remain nameless) thought was Beanie Sigel's new allbum. I'm not entirely sure, wether it was or wasn't but I will say this. If Beanie Sigel's album is that, or is anything like that. We're in for a treat

The copy that I received had numerous pro-recordings that I've never heard but they were alongside tracks that I'd heard over 18 months ago, which leads me to doubt the validity of the L.P. But the soul and progression of the man was evident from track 1 to track 12. It could be the best mainstream east-coast album release since his mentor Jay-Z's 'Black album'. I'm not into bootleging and wether this is or isn't the official release, I will be giving HMV the fee required to feed Beanie's kids while he's in prison.

I've got to disagree, (admitedly) on the basis of one listen, I thought it was really quite boring. The singles grabbed my attention more thru familiarity than quality and I never really got with the albums tempo. Saying that, "Purple Rain" is superb, and prehaps one play isn't enough to make a snatch judgement about an album. With more plays I hope to prove myself wrong, but I don't think I will.

I'm pretty sure that it isn't actually the album anyway! The last three tracks are just samples! They stop half way through, plus the Jay-Z track is old and has been on another album.....

But what it was, was good. Beanie can get boring, but he manages to keep my attention all the way through.

Flatline- Huge track
Feel it in the air- Beanie's best ever work.
Gotta Have it- Big tune
Purple Rain- Sick track, absolutely massive.

The beats don't slack a minute, and I can't say that I heard a weak track on it! Beanie's albums are usually all hype and violence, this one's more mature. You can hear the thinking in the music.
