"The 18th Letter" proves Rakim is still full of life
Pros: Rakim's lyrics, Rakim's flow, generally excellent production. Cons: Skits interrupt the flow of the album a tad, two average songs. Bottom Line: The GOD Is Back!
Pros: beats, rhythms.....everything Cons: wish there were more tracks It's Been A Long Time
Pros: Already a Hip-Hop "Classic" Cons: Interview Interludes between songs are a bit weak Bottom Line: Rakim proves he is the God and has everybody bowing to The 18th Letter
Pros: Rakim's Groundbreaking Lyricism, Dope Beats by Primo and other talented producers, introspection Cons: Quite a Few Interludes, Gets a tad bit weaker at times, one average track Bottom Line: |
