I realized as well that the albums songs all seemed to be contradictory at times, but it's still a very good rap album. Mr. Banner knows that you can't just put out an album of preaching for an hour and a half and expect everyone to buy it, so it's gotta have some good radio hits and club songs that'll get peoples' attention (which Banner's beats are really good at). People don't want to buy an album to hear someone preaching through their headphones for 80 minutes...people want to buy an album because of the good music on it. In my opinion, Mr. Banner has done an excellent job of meshing those two things together: he accomplishes getting his points across, but he's got a lot of good music on this album. Sure it's not the best rap album ever, but it's one of the best ones in 2008. - banhmr9001 Mon, 21 Jul 2008 20:03:43 +0100 http://www.okayplayer.com/reviews/july-2008/david-banner-200807176083/#comment-2691 Yo very good review, I like Davis Banner but he gotta make up his mind what image he wants to be - Qroyal(www.myspace.com/redcapmedia) Mon, 21 Jul 2008 09:28:33 +0100 http://www.okayplayer.com/reviews/july-2008/david-banner-200807176083/#comment-2685 Nah this is Bullshit!Some beats are good but Banners rapping sucks!!The Review is on point! - The Dopepope Mon, 21 Jul 2008 02:16:36 +0100 http://www.okayplayer.com/reviews/july-2008/david-banner-200807176083/#comment-2615 Every review I've read (here, Rolling Stone, Rap Reviews) has been overly critical and lean on proper praise. The album is contradictory........but it is hot! The few questionable songs are meant for the clubs or mainstream radio obviously (The song 'A Girl' comes to mind). Everything else is potent. Banner experiments with a lot of different soundscapes and pulls it off. He spit on this album with the vigor of someone dropping a debut. Even the skits were good. I'm not going to stand for this. We need artists like Banner to succeed in the mainstream, people that care about making music and use their public forum to express a more realistic image of a lot of young black males. This album is getting shitted on and it's one of the best albums of the year so far.People who thought Carter III, King, or the latest UGK was hot should really be feeling this album. After hearing 'The Greatest Story Evertold' I was motivated and entertained. - Slick Ant Fri, 18 Jul 2008 16:41:46 +0100
