N.O.R.E. Album: “Melvin Flynt - Da Hustler”

Once again da Iraq representa drops another bangin' album. If you like War Report and N.O.R.E you'll love this one. In fact if you like any of the Queens rapper like Mobb Deep, Nas, Lost Boyz, you'll love this b/c it has the queens sound. If you don't get it you're sleepin. peace

Noreaga, hits back, with Melvyn Flynt da Hustla, but this one doesn't hit as hard as N.O.R.E. This album has a couple good joints, but I can't figure out why "Half-Baked"didn't make the final cut. I was looking for it, but it ain't even on it. Then, he hits us with some good joints like "Oh no" "If u Want it" and "Bood Money pt. 3" Personallly I expected more, same old beats some bad rhymin, but hey He's only a thug, as he explains on the CD booklet.

In a day and age where there are so many rappers using gimmicks and catch phrases to sell records, it is truly a hip hop delight to hear NOREAGA droppin ear tantilizing rhymes on head bobbin' tracks. Yo this kid could flow for ever it seems, you'll be instantly attached as the first cut entitled "Sometimes" mellow with a true bass bump takes you on a tour of Noreaga's life and his love for his deceased father. And then there's "Da Hustla" which just draws your ears closer with its' cyth-inspired beats. And for all you West Coast Mobbin Homies, G's and Hustla's you must hear "Cocaine Business" it's a str8 g tale of mobbin thru Vegas and N.Y.C. after hearing this one you'll be wondering if NORE is really from New York or the west. And then there's one everyone seems to like, "Blood Money" I've been getting calls from Wisconsin to New Orleans every since this single dropped. But the thing that makes this CD' so unique is that there really aren't any weak cuts you can basically put it in the deck and let it spin. BIG UP to NORE on this one it's a sure shot, already GOLD and Approaching Platinum, Congrats to NOREAGA

Noreaga was great on "The War Report." He was o.k. on "N.O.R.E.," but the tight beats and great collabos made up for it. "Melvyn Flynt" is "N.O.R.E." without the tight beats and great collabos. "Play That S**t" featuring Juvenile and Lil' Wayne is the lone real standout track. "Sometimes" and "Wethuggedout" (feat. Missy) are above average tracks, but the best overall advice--buy the "Play That S**t" single and leave the album on store shelves.

Noreaga's new release "Melvin Flynt Da Hustla" is a hip-hop classic, tight tracks and true lyrics make up this album and this is my favorite CD i have ever bought, none of the songs on this CD bore me and trust me they wont bore you!
