    for a few overblown performances and quasi-epic productions, It Ain't Safe No More finds Busta Rhymes with the same sure grip on his distinctive personality.

    When it works, it's exhilarating, but elsewhere the poor lamb sounds a touch jaded. [Feb 2003, p.96]

  3. Playlouder

    As an album, the thing seems to suffer from a lack of texture, variation, and (dare we suggest) innovation.
  4. Uncut
    60
    As unoriginal as his previous five, yet still entertaining. [Mar 2003, p.106]
