<p>Producers: RZA, Tony Touch, True Master.
<p>Engineers include: Jose Reynoso, Nolan Moffite, RZA.
<p>Despite his cohort GZA's well known nickname, many regard RZA as the true genius of the Wu-Tang Clan. RZA first introduced his Bobby Digital alter ego on 1998's IN STEREO. He continues to speak through Bobby on this disc, which is just as sonically inventive as its predecessor. Utilizing off-kilter rhythms, quirky keyboard riffs, unconventional delivery, and a generally left-field sensibility, RZA remains the unconventional hip-hop innovator. While he has no reservations about taking on the violent subjects that are the domain of so many rappers, he delves deeper into the root causes of urban problems, and ultimately searches for solutions. It's this searching quality, as applied to both his lyrics and his music, that gives RZA's work its distinctive edge.

- Must be Bobby
Rza is at again, piano chords and dark beats laced with the trademark flow. Bobby D has always had the most underrated flow from Shaolin and he's out to open some more third eyes with this ablum. Guest drops that stand out are Meth on "Glocko Pop", Big Gipp and Tony Touch on "D.V. #2", Gza on "Do U" and Junior Reid on Righteous Way. I was hooked after the first five songs, I had to start the disc over just to bug again off the brillance of Digital B. Oh, I can't leave out an appearance by the ODB who reps like a man on work release. This is another Wu-Tang album and should be picked up by any WU fan, Bobby is the head...A couple of songs on side 2 do not keep up with the level set on side one, but no disappointments... RZA "F**kin up the mic is still my hobby".

- Evolution of a New Wu Sound
The first bobby digital album I have to admit I didn't care for much. The first track (BOBBY) was original and suggested a step in a new direction for RZA, but most of the rest was the same stuff we've heard before and not even as good. It also didn't feature enough of the favorite clan members.
This album is all different. Throughout, RZA's tracks exhibit a new technological sound with a host of unexpected instrumental combinations, rhythms, and dissonant harmonies. This album more than any other Wu cd shows great artistic development for RZA. As for the rap, RZA's on point (as always) and most of the favorite Wu mems. are featured, including Killarmy and Black Knights members who drop great verses. Masta Killa and Prodigal Sun are some other highlights. Also worth mentioning, the last couple tracks contain some interesting verses that round out the album out with a serious and effective message against conventional society. This is definitely among the best Wu albums. Wu-Tang Forever God!

- Watch Rza's GlockO pop! explosive
This album shines in more then 5 songs, therefore it is worth 5 stars. Most albums have 2-3 great songs this has over 5. Glocko Pop has to be the illest track on this album and i would include it as a WU Classic. Show you love is a great song also, When i play La rhumba the bass in my car kicks big time. Domestic violence 2 is stillmatic. Brooklyn babies shows rza telling an amazing story. The beats on this album are awkward like most rza beats from his previous album but you get a taste of how teh rza is 3rd dimensional. This is a must buy cd.

- Readin books in the dark....
First off this is for sure a BOB DIGI album...Its all about those snake type women he comes across in his Digi life style...and the trouble they bring to him and his alter ego Rza. The production is a mix of old Wu ways with new Digi styles so it is diffrent and the lyrics are split between the fight of the Rza against the ways of Bobby and Bobby just enjoyin his ladies and hatein on them. There are some classics up in here .."Do you" uses the Wu revolutions violin and throws in a Digi twist to give you somethin new and dope. Songs like "must be Bobby" "Glock Go Pop" "throw up your Flags" "Be a Man" and "sickness" follow in that direction ,being a new mix of WU and Digi..some song will take you by surprise you and scare you away ,like "fools" "bong bong" "Shady" and "Brooklyn Babies" but they are what makes this album worth getting, the beat on Bong Bong is crazy Digi style and is a what this album is all about...If you felt the first Bobby Digi album be prepared this is a leap like that was for us WU fans but be sure and know Bobby has returned for the good

- 4-4.5 rating for 2nd bobby digital
Rza as Bobby Digital in Digital Bullet is dope. Bobby Digital as we all know is Rza's evil, bugged out, crazy side. from the gate this album is tight. maybe about 3 tracks I ain't feeling out of 18. My favorite tracks are "Show Your Love", "Can't Lose"(which features digi using an old soul sample and looping it). "Must Be Bobby", "Brooklyn Babies" with Masta Killa, "Do You", "Black Widow Pt 2" with ODB going nuts on an grimmy track.
"Break Bread", "Throw your Flag Up",(dope track) with Black Knights. "Be A Man"(which also samples an dope old soul sample). Then the last 3 tracks to me Bobby Digital turns back to Rza and comes with some deep lyrics. On "Build Strong" Rza fights with himself and maybe does not want to be Bobby Digital anymore(I bet this will be the last of Bobby Digital for now) hint- "The Cure" will finaly come out. "Sickness" is also my top favorite when Rza kicks some ill flow over a digital beat. The songs I did not feel are Domestic Violence 2, La Rumba is the wackest track should not be on this Album in the first place(way too Comercial for an Rza album, and Shady i think is flat to me also. The rest of the album is dope. Overall I think that the first Bobby Digital was a little more dope, because he had more bangers on it, but still this new Bobby Digital is worth the money, and without a doubt the best album Wu came with since that Ghost Dog Sdtk. For on the surface hip hop new Bobby Digital is ill.
