Let's be honest, Rick Ross, the self-proclaimed BOSS from Miami does not gangsta rap. I admit that I find the music is not bad, but I see it differently now. The album is exceptionally quiet and chill, no aggressive mood - but unfortunately also very Monton.
The problem: All that comes from the Sunshine State, is more pop than real RAP (HipHop), but the state lacks the historical background, he is greatly influenced Latino.
Without going into individual songs must be noted here that Rick Ross has a good flow and rhyme style, but rather music for the radio, the mainstream and the coal writes than to be really taken seriously. One might even say he takes the Sellout consciously - and that bothers me. DEF JAM is it as long as Artist cannibalize and milk, as the money keeps pouring in, and that will soon no longer be the case ....... with 200,000 albums sold already a success in the US in two weeks now.
Qualitatively good, bad content ..... also there!
