    Hallways is still an accomplished addition to Homeboy Sandman’s ever consistent output.

    Hallways demonstrates great writing, clever concepts, varying flow patterns and a solid ear for organic production--all of which nudges the boundaries without straying too far away.

    Homeboy Sandman's biggest attractor is still his pride, a quality that's even more up-front as his career matures. Hallways beams with it, making it one of those rare rap records where true talk meets the warm fuzzies, or the warm motherfuzzies, as it were.
