    Like every hip-hop album (even the great ones), Kanye West's The College Dropout is marred by too many guest artists, too many interludes, and just too many songs period. (I challenge every hip-hop artist working today to record just one album with 12 tracks or less-no skits, no guests, no filler.)

    Most producers who approach the mic do so at their peril, but on Dropout, West turns out to be a full-service hip-hop artiste.

    Delivers both ass-shakers and contemplative cuts.
