    I'm a huge fan of ghostface and i enjoyed the pretty tony album. Fishscale is nothing compared to his older releases, there are barely any decent beats and i feel that ghostface is slipping off of his game. Wu-Tang has always thrived with or without the $1,000,000 beats but i cant say the same for Fishscale. The only song i feel deserves more than 1 listening is The Champ which tore I'm a huge fan of ghostface and i enjoyed the pretty tony album.

    Overall, "Fishscale" is strong, with archetypal beats creating the definitive Ghost. [1 Apr 2006]

    He may not be reinventing himself, but as a must-hear street storyteller, he's still at the top of his game. [31 Mar 2006, p.64]

    Will certainly stand as one of the best rap albums of the year. [26 Mar 2006]
