Free Music Review: Same Old Thang, Got The Name On The Chain just To Let Em know Who's Who
Hit: 5 Stars
It's Loso...case you didn't know so. Quite possibly the coolest rapper in the game right now with his laid back demeanor and quiet confidence, Fabolous definitely delivers on his 5th studio album and his best lp to date. Fabolous has managed to channel his talents to create a well put together cohesive body of work that has enough standouts and reality tracks to warrant repeated listens.
While Loso's Way is deemed as a "concept" album it's really not. It does keep a similar sound throughout the album though but it doesn't really recreate Carlito's Way or even follow a storyline as it's trying suggest. Fabolous has grown as a rapper though. We always knew he could keep the punchlines coming but he always had trouble storytelling and rapping about life in general. That's certainly not the case here. With tracks like I Miss My Love and When The Money Goes perfectly offsetting the other bragadocio and fun records, this album develops the balance that his previous albums lacked.
There's one song that's so good it deserves it's own paragraph. Everything Everywhere Everyday ft. Keri Hilson is the definition of an event. Over a perfect (and I do mean perfect) beat from the future legend Ryan Leslie, Fabolous glides through this record with such a cool and confident ease that you barely realize that he's really spitting on this track. The flow is perfect. Keri Hilson is the icing on the cake as she is the perfect songstress for this song with her confidence and attitude. I used the word perfect 4 times in this paragraph(actually 5 now)....but make no mistake about it...this song is one of the Top 5 songs of the year in my opinion.
Once you come down off that ridiculous high from that song other songs are hot too. The Intro has Fab in top braggadocio form, the other Ryan Leslie production The Fabolous Life jams as well (but not like track 5!!) and the last 6 songs end it off with a bang; Makin Love ft. Neyo, Last Time ft. Trey Songs, Pachanga, Lullaby, Stay, I Miss My Love.
Lucky people get bonus songs for downloading (I bought my copy) but I downloaded the bonus tracks (for free of course...I just spent 13 on the album!) and I'm wondering why they didn't make the album. Welcome To My Workplace is classic Fabolous. Over a sinister beat...Fabolous takes us through his workplace. This would have been perfect as track 2 right after the intro. A Toast To The Good Life follows in that same vein and would have been a perfect outro. Bang Bang and Never Let It Go(Japan Bonus tracks) are also very worthy to be included on the album. The Throw It In The Bag Remix ft. Drake is far superior to the album version as well (which happens to be the worst track on the album). I think after this review I will go ahead and make another cd with these tracks on the cd.
The bonus DVD that came with the album is underwhelming at best. It was advertised as a being a movie but in reality it's more like a bad 30 minute sitcom. The acting is pretty bad and the story is extremely bare and lacking. My advice...stick to rapping. Trust me you aren't missing anything by getting the regular version of the cd.
Overall, Loso's Way is one of the best cd's of the year so do yourself a favor and pick this album ASAP if you haven't already done so.
Loso's Way Poster
After nearly one full decade at the absolute pinnacle of the rap game, Desert Storm/Def Jam artist Fabolous will deliver the most personal, confessional album of his career when LOSO'S WAY arrives in the physical and digital marketplace on July 28th. The new album provides an intimate glimpse into the rise of the Brooklyn-born rapper, one of today's most important and controversial players, exploring the perils that come with managing the transition from a street life to one of legitimacy.Underscoring the autobiographical portrait of LOSO'S WAY is Fab's first long-form video project, a 30-minute film to be released in conjunction with the album. Several trailers from the film have been released, creating a huge buzz for the project online. Known for keeping his personal life separate from his rap career, Fab was inspired by Carlito's Way (Al Pacino), as he told SOHH.com recently: "I think we had some similarities. Carlito was a street dude trying to make the transition from the streets to something better. That's where I felt I was at....transitioning from the streets to a hip-hop artist."
In advance of LOSO'S WAY, two singles are building simultaneously at radio: "Throw It In The Bag" featuring fellow Def Jam artist The-Dream (produced by Tricky Stewart) was #1 Most-Added at Rhythm formats; and "It's My Time" featuring brand new Def Jam artist Jeremih (produced by the Runners) is currently exploding at the Urban format.
