Free Music Notes for Street Dreams

Free Music Review: 'Dreams' come true on
Hit: 5 Stars

1. Intro - The typical DJ Clue intro, similar to the first 10 or 11 seconds of the first song off of "Ghetto Fabolous".

2. Not Give A F*** (10/10) - An excellent Fabolous track. Sounds like something you would've heard on "Ghetto Fabolous", just with a little more polished sound.

3. D*** (10/10) - Yeah baby, this is the party anthem! Fab brings out an unstoppable set of rhymes to a club shakin' Trackmasters beat, what else can you ask for?

4. Call Me (10/10) - This is a layed back track about a girl stalking Fab after a one-night stand. Has an upbeat sound and some really good verses by the F-A-B-0-L-O-U-S!

5. Can't Let You Go (feat/ Lil' Mo & Mike Shorey) (10/10) - The smooth, R&B influenced second single. Has a nice storyline and a good rhythem, also since it features Lil' Mo & new comer Mike Shorey, it makes it even better.

6. Bad B***** (10/10)- Another club rattling song, only this one wasn't meant for the club. Fab's story of two [chicks] with him makes a good lyrical story while the kickin' beat brings more to it.

7. Why Wouldn't I (feat/ Paul Cain) (9.5/10) - The first track that didn't thrill me, but still a good beat and some good raps by Fab & Paul.

8. Up On Things (feat/ Snoop Dogg) (9/10) - Not as good as I expected a Snoop Dogg featured track to be. This song uses the all-too memorable sample that Dr. Dre used on his 1999 hit single "Still D.R.E".

9. Sickalicious (feat/ Missy "Misdemeanor" Elliott) (7/10) - I expected way more from this track than it had to offer. Missy only raps the chorus (same thing Ja did on "Ride For This" from "Ghetto Fabolous") while Fab does an OK job on the main rapping.

10. This Is My Party (10/10) - Your right it's your party Fab! So go head and get 'fly if u want to'! This is one of the best party/club songs from a rap artist i've heard in a while (other than 50's "In Da Club"). This club bangin' lead single may have not gone that far on the charts, but is still being played in my cd player daily.

11. Into You (feat/ Ashanti) (10/10) - I can't stop listening to this song. Ashanti does an excellent singing job and Fab's smooth, R&B influenced vocals make it an almost sure radio success.

12. Change You Change Me (10/10) - Didn't love it the first listen, but after 2 or 3 times it became a favorite of mine. One of the only songs where Fab raps completely alone (i'm not counting the backup singers on tracks like "D***" and "Call Me").

13. Respect (9/10) - A pretty good track. Fab gets aggrevated about having to 'kill' someone to get some respect.

14. Forgive Me Father (7/10) - Not really that interesting. Good beat, but the song suffers from senseless lyrics.

15. Never Duplicated (8/10) - Better, but still somewhat senseless lyrics, very good beat, though, courtesy of Kanye West.

16. Wake Up - ? (WHY is this track listed? It's not even there! And even worse, in the booklet it says who produced it [Timbaland] and where it was produced and everything, but IT'S NOT EVEN ON THE ALBUM!)

17. My Life (feat/ Mary J. Blige) (8/10) - Would've been a perfect song except for 2 things. First, the sample of Mary's own song "What's The 411?" (also, to noteably used by J.Lo & LL Cool J on her new single "All I Have") makes the track seem too annoyningly similar to the J.Lo song. Second, it's not Fab's best raps ever.

BONUS TRACKS

18. Throw Back (10/10) - Yes! This is awesome! The beat is non-stop and the lyrics from Fab about his throw backs make it excellent. I love this track! Probably my second favorite behind "Into You" and "Call Me".

19. Keepin' It Gangsta [Remix] (feat/ Jadakiss, Styles, and M.O.P) (10/10) - I liked the original, and a remix with Jada & Stlyles and M.O.P! How can it not be an awesome track.

20. Trade It All Pt. 2 (feat/ P. Diddy and Jagged Edge) (10/10) - The remix of "Trade It All" from the previously mentioned "Barbershop" soundtrack. A great ending to a great album.

I'm gonna keep a look out for any NEW Fabolous songs and keep buying his CD's until he doesn't make them anymore, i love his style and the production behind him, so, why not? Fab, keep keepin' it gangsta!
