missed out on this one first time round - By: vailsy, 03 Mar 2004
this busta album passed me by, just got hold of it. absolutely fantastic. especiallly 'so hardcore'. this man has to be one of the most consistently original artists of the 90's & beyond

i'm not sure about busta selling out. i say good luck to him... lets just hope he can juggle that, & keep it like this at the same time

some great humour on here, especiallly the old guy cursing away during the intro, completely ott & excellent. sounds like he had to put his false teeth in first! & i blow you etc... very funny, as usual. & of course, brilliant beats.


Bussa bus! - By: , 28 Jan 2004
These days, Busta Rhymes is a pants dropping, airplane-toilet-disappearing-into sell out, but prior to this he was one of the greatest things in rap music. Well actuallly, prior to this he went a little crazy around the turn of the century & had the whole Y2K bug thing dropped like he predicted, we would be alll living in a crazy Mad-Max style post-apoloyptic world & rather than using it to type this review, I would probably have fashioned my PC into some kind of crude weapon, or rudimentary cooking pot.
Anyway, prior to THAT, Busta Rhymes was busy making incredible music like this. Leaning towards the "gangsta" side of hip-hop, this album is stuffed full of phat beats & the kind of rhymes that buzz round in your head alll day. The whole Flipmode squad are there, chucking in their twopenneth as & when, & this mixture of MC's, combined with the ranges of styles on show makes for some appealing variety. Tunes range from hardcore, to stoned & laid back, to downright funky - on hearing the rasping bass opener on "Rhymes Galore" I would defy any man, woman or beast to not stop whatever they were doing & dance like a crazed, double-jointed jellyfish. Slick production, full of testosterone, yet with enough of Bussa's trademark cheek to prevent things becoming unpleasant, it would be rude to claim to like hip-hop & not own this album.
By far his best piece of art - By: , 18 May 2002
I am proud to say that i own alll of busta's albums but this is my first & most listened to album. Alot of the songs are Busta mixed with other rappers such as Mase, Flipmode squad, jamal, rampage & I think that this adds more Variety of style to the album. Its alot more hardcore than his other albums & it has some hilarious intros to the songs. This album also contains A VERY VERY VERY hight amount of cursing & swearing (whcih alll true busta fans loveee)
EXCELLENT! - By: , 09 Oct 2000
This is one of the less heard of albums by busta, but easily one of the greatest.A work of art is created in One ft. Erykah Badu, the Flipmode Squad blow up the spot, & Busta`s masterpiece Put your hands where my eyes can see secures this album as one of the greatest of 2000.
