HAHAHA @ the people shitting on this album!! I don’t even know where to begin. So I won’t. I’m a white country boy too inspired by rock & rap. I’ve listened to Em religiously for over 10 years. I’ve absorbed his word play, style and his Shady side. This album, Radioactive, has given me what I need to start making some movements. See you in a few, Yela. GOD BLESS you for this REAL album. No bullshit. Peace out, Hishman. Oh yeah, XXL, F* You and your ratings. Weak.

This album doesn’t touch Trunk Music. He sounds best on Drama beats. I’d like to see Trunk Music 2, please. Album not bad but a little boring compared to TM.

dude… from Atlanta seen yela many times @ smith’s ol a few amongst others… and after he signed to shady was expecting better, harder and more yela, and got a radio/arena ready album… can’t hate him for chasing his dream. Just wish his dream was the grime that got him there.

This is a fantastic album although it does sound a little like Bone Thugs and Harmony.

do you even understand music? do you what the music business is? your comments don’t make you sound smart and definitely don’t make you sound like a hip-hop pro. there’s a reason its called mainstream you idiot, because everybody is listening now. he didn’t sell out he’s still the same its just some of the hooks on the album that are pop. his lyrics are still the same, he’s still a bad-ass white Mother-fucker. but when you go mainstream you have to add those hooks otherwise you won’t sell (even Biggie did it). if you don’t plan on selling then stay underground. It all depends on how pop you become. I’d say yelawolf has gone as less pop as possible. If you heard the album you see that at the end of Throw it Up eminem tells him that he needs a love song because girls like love songs. He did one while staying yelawolf: it isn’t exactly the typical love song you’d hear on any other rappers album.

And for God’s sake you have to understand that rap isn’t about doing the same thing every time. if you wanted Radioactive to sound more like trunk muzik then listen to trunk muzik, a rapper is as good as his style. and when it comes to yelawolf he has a 1000 styles all rapped up in one.

The album deserves a XXL or XL on originality because unlike Lil’ wayne he knows how to fuse rock and rap and still pull off a flow that kicks ass.

yo the problem is not that this deserves xxl (its great but not perfect.) the problem is that those albums deserve less. but i think the reason why xxl rates shit the way it does, is by the artist’s standards not rap’s standard. if they rated albums in relation to each other, all shady records shit, all strange musics shit, all of blu’s shit, they would all get xxl all the time. they rate albums compared to the artist’s albums, which explains why this, all 6′s and 7′s, hell: the sequel etc. get xl and not xxl. yelawolf’s trunk muzik 0-60 was classic, deserving of an xxl but this isn’t as good. tech n9ne has (arguably) come out with better albums. and both eminem and royce have released better shit than that ep they did, seperately and together. you think drake can do much better than the album he just came out with? you think khaled can put out anything better than the crap he puts out? nah man. reviews are based in relation to the artist’s other work, or potential. unless of course albums are total shit (soulja boy and lil b.) but they are a bit gratuitous with young money and popular trashy rap, but reviews they give are pretty accurate. just take into account that these guys like mainstream rap, and will review albums based on their own opinions.

I’m not a diehard Yelawolf fan, I was exposed to him by hearing his verses on Big Boi and Game’s CD’s, and honestly this CD was a huge disappointment the Intro is what I expected of him, and the CD just went all over the place, Production wasn’t that great and his lyrics were good but nothing spectacular for someone who has an unique style, he made a name for himself and didn’t live up to the reputation that he built for himself! I expect his next CD to be way better than this. The problem with Artist these days mixed tapes are better than actual CD’s!

Do you know how freakin stupid you sound. The dude was makin major waves on the underground scene, and gettin all kinds of love from industry cats, wantin them on his songs. He was official before he signed with Eminem, dope.

The album is hit and miss for me there is some really good songs and a few so so songs but over all it was a solid debut into the mainstream, not as good as his underground shit but he can only get better with major backing from here on out.
Yeller holleratchee, catfish is the real deal and killin most of these new wave sorry ass rappers out right now. Listen to good music or get laughed at.

wtf? this just gets an xl? xxl are fucking up…shitty rappers like drake and wayne are making headlines nowadays when the real rappers are getting nothing. i bet if ice cube or some one now made an album that was hard as fuck, xxl would give it some shit lil an L but lil wayne would get something like XXL…this is bullshit. fuck you XXL you did the same for RED album and that was an amazing album…so is this. get your head out of YMCMB’s ass

Just because it’s not a carbon copy of trunk muzik doesnt mean its garbage. Great album overall with a few tracks that could have been left out.

GREAT FIRST ALBUM AND ITS GREAT TO SEE A ARTIST FOCUS ON LYRICS MORE THAN HOT BEAT TO DISTRACT THE LISTENER

the reply of the moron who has nothing else to say. clearly im a yela fan but not a shady dickrider and thts why i can see the album objectivley and see tht it sucks and is a cop out. he switched up his whole style, he was original, now hes not. hes the only person i can legitematly call a sellout.
