Nov 17, 2011With a tight-knit collection of features and palpable confidence exuded in his lyrics, Ambition is Wale's most cohesive and likewise enthralling project thus far in his brisk career.
-
Oct 31, 2011As far as why it all hangs together so well, credit goes to Wale's talent and his strong personality, which here has grown into an interesting combination of Lil Wayne and Plies, with a little 50 Cent smirk and bit of Drake's phrasing thrown in for good measure.

Nov 1, 2011The sonic mood of Ambition reflects its title and author and proves, on the whole, far warmer than his debut.
-
Nov 4, 2011Everything is fast-moving, breezily entertaining, and patently ridiculous.
-
Entertainment WeeklyNov 11, 2011While his follow-up's party beats are sturdy, it's frustrating to hear him trade his brainy morality for shoutouts. [11 Nov 2011, p.75]

Nov 17, 2011This is a truly throwaway fast food album. You will enjoy it for a while, and in a year, I guarantee that you will not be listening to it, save for a few songs (such as "Legendary" and "Ambition").
-
Oct 31, 2011Ultimately, the witty lyricism of Wale's early material is too few and far between, as this set leans heavily on misogynistic themes and self-centred musings.
