I agree with sae…I like the same songs he picked, not the one’s in the review that are driven by the “who’s hot” status quo…

but it is an L…IMO Big 10 is a better effort…

they sleep on fifty cent hard just because they dont want to see the same commercial succes from the past but the truth of the matter is that fifty is one of the top emcees in the music industry and that wont change because he loves to make music for the art .The crazy thing is who honestly can go in the volt pull out some of the hardest records that were just collecting dust put together a mixtape and crush the competition without ever lifting a finger.In my opinion Xxl writers choose to be bias out of convencience instead of honest every chance they get and truthfully seem to be out of touch from the reality of what great hiphop is

Y’all are fucked up in the head if you think Banner’s mixtape is better than this. 50 spits hard and theres 5 or 6 bangers. Just cut your losses and go away XXL.

exactly. its a review so obviously its an opinion and people are mad that they don’t share the same opinion. and if its biased at all its toward 50 since hes been on the cover like 8 times. most recently, once with soulja boy and the other with money mayweather

What’s great about this tape is the simplicity.

Where other artist go and purchases expensive beats, and have featured guests to make the mixtape hot, fif choose 2 go his own way.

The features he has is from artist we know little about.

I wouldnt call Riot the hottest song.

I would rank the songs this way: Lay down, Murder one, Complicated, Double Up, Riot, All his love

These are the songs that make the mixtape, all of them i would give a XL and the rest of the mixtape would get an L.

Id still give the mixtape a XL because i think fif made a great tape out of nothing.

He already made big 10 and that tape was full of juicy beats and not so much street element as this.

I can see why he did the project, he’s preparing his comeback.

But if the album is gonna sell, fif needs to generate interest, and for the broad public i dont think songs sounding like they did on this tape is a good path to choose.

Big 10 could have been his album, that’s how strong that tape was.
This is just a buzz creator, and honestly, better than Meek’s dreamchaser and Jadakiss consignment.

I don’t understand why everyone feels the need to be like “Why didn’t you give this a better rating? I think this should be better.”. Cause seriously, they rate it how they want to rate it, if you don’t like what they gave a release, then just say your opinion but don’t say their wrong cause everyone has their own likes and dislikes. Go review it yourself if you give two shits but reading it gives me a good idea of what to expect.

this mixtape deserves an XL at least…you cant knock fif for not changing his content he is an entertainer & they way he sees it is that he actually lived that life so he has a right to rap about it unlike these other rappers in the game who just say shit to sound good but arent actually about that life they rap about. Fif is genius because he’s managed to say the same shit a million different ways & its still undeniably hot! Plus his fans are always sayin we want the “old 50″ his fans dont want him to grow lol he gave them what they wanted to the best of his abilities & with great quality. I’m really impressed with this mixtape i just wish everyone appreciated fif as much as i did because its so easy to hate on him.

People need to stop saying that he needs to work with em and dre stuff its a mixtape.50 has never worked with them on a mixtape and don’t make it sound like he hasn’t been working with them em and dre were both on his last album he got 2 beats from dre and did a song with em “pscyo” if u were real fans then u got his last album before I self destruct” and new that. And stop asking for buck to come back he is disloyal and caused g-unit records 10 million in damages!!!!! He is a bad buisness investment I liked himwith them but he isn’t worth internal bleeding him and game caused the laborious and banks and Yahoo are branching out as artist to take there careers to the next legal and stop acting like he don’t work with them nomore Yayo was on 2 tracks on 50 last mixtape and 50 was on banks last album. The mixtape is hot bust like the last one and the last album and all the freestyles he has put out before this and the big ten mixtape and the new album will be fire too hatred die slow
