Personnel: Styles P (rap vocals).
<p>Additional personnel: Marsha From Floetry, Gerald Levert, Jagged Edge (vocals); Rashad, Sizzla, Swizz Beatz, Talib Kweli, The Lox, Flipsyde (rap vocals).
<p>Styles P had been through his share of trials and tribulations, between the success of his certified gold debut, A GANGSTER AND A GENTLEMEN, and the release of its much-delayed follow-up, TIME IS MONEY. After a brief prison term for assault, Styles's label drama began, and he chose to go the mixtape route, recording three while Interscope put TIME IS MONEY on the back burner. Nearly two years after its first single came out, the Lox's most laidback crew member's sophomore album finally arrived to smash the world. With his measured cadences, sly one-liners, and understated intensity, Styles P once again proves he can display all the lyrical power of the most amped-up rhyme spitter without losing his cool. Tight production comes courtesy of Havoc, Lil Jon, Rashad, Hi-Tek, and the Alchemist, while the guest list features Talib Kweli, Jae Hood, Jadakiss, Sheek Louch, Akon, and Marsha of Floetry.

- Solid Album from the Ghost.....and don't listen to a kids review
I'm a fan of Styles first album A Gangster and a Gentleman, so when i first heard about this album, i was excited but then it was getting pushed back by interscope after 50 cent(G-UNOT) coerced them to do so cause he was beefin with The Lox. Anyways, from what I've heard of the CD, i think its about on the same level as the first. and to the kid that did the review, stop listening to chicken noodle soup and listen to REAL music, this is something hip hop needed. So, to those who value real music and not retarded things like chicken noodle soup, chain hang low etc. buy this album. You won't be disappointed.

- Real Music
If you don't like D-Block...why buy or even waste your time listening to their music. As far as 50 killing their careers HA ....I highly recommend this album and thanks Styles for releasing a "real" album and not just another club joint. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful:
- Another Classic From Your Favorite Rapper's Favorite Rapper
This joint is a banger. The final version released is bound to be a classic. Styles raps from the heart and it's great to hear. Great production. 3 of 4 people found the following review helpful:
- Worth both your time and money
Oh my god this album is hot. I always saw Styles P as second best to Jadakiss but now... I'm confused. Definitely one of the strongest efforts to come out of any Lox member. On the mic Styles P is fire, spitting his trademark grime laced with political commentary. Already a proven master of flow, he's also an MC wiser than he lets on, so for the more lyrics-driven hip hop fan this album is a wonderful listen. For the most part the beats are standard New York but banging nonetheless. There's a nice collab between Styles and Sizzla, which is interesting. Not all the guest features are memorable (Jagged Edge was unnecessary, I don't care for Mario Winans) but Jadakiss is a sure-shot and Talib Kweli is UNREAL on one of the album's stand-out tracks 'Testify'. Both MCs drop heat on that song but jesus murphy Kweli takes the house down. Maybe two of the best verses to ever be laid down by the BK MC.
As a personal side note I freakin' love the opening track, 'G-Joint'. I have listened to that song on repeat numerous times since buying the album and it never gets tired. Hottest beat of the year.

- BOUT TIME
FINALLY, AFTER MORE THAN 3 YEARS OF WAITING, TIME IS MONEY IS RELEASED.EVERY TRACK (EXCEPT CAN YOU BELIEVE IT W/ AKON) IS UNBELIEVABLE.
I'M SURPRISED HE GOT AWAY WITH THE SHOT AT YOUNG BUCK IN THE G-JOINT TRACK. AS THE REVIEWER KNOWN AS VIPER, I HOPE YOU GET DYSENTARY AND REALIZE YOU'RE RESPONSIBLE FOR KILLING HIP HOP YOU SHEMALE PARAQUAT.
