  1. A CD packed with the sort of undeniable pleasures only the most churlish thug could deny. [15 Apr 2005, p.78]
  2. The flow is intact, the rhymes are well written, and even though Smith hasn't crossed that line from pop friendly into hardcore gangsta... he's definitely a bit more rugged this time out.
  3. Some of the playful songs are as joyously boisterous and willfully corny as anything in Smith's past, making Lost and Found an entertaining and thoughtful album for young kids and their parents to listen to and talk about.
  4. The lamest album that'll be released this year.

  1. The album Lost And Found by Will Smith is real nice. Especially the songs "Party Starter" and "Switch" are cool. Overall it's pretty varied and promises hours of full music enjoyment. Expand

    Will Smith is mos def diff from the other rappers. He said it best, 90% of today rappers have the same bs in their videos.

    Will Smith is not 50 cent, or Fat Joe or even Eminem. But that is a good thing. He is contributing to the artfrom in a positive way and he�39;s pretty nice with his especially on "lost and found". He's simply not getting a chance cause we too wrapped up in the meanface thug rappers. I'm into Talib Kweli and Mos and them kats, but i bought Will's album because he said "i got something you need to hear" and that's real. I never bought a Will Smith album but i think he needs to be respected for this one. (a few songs are corny but i forgive him) GIVE SOME DIFFERENT HIP-HOP A CHANCE! Expand

    Weak. Simply not entertaining. Stick to acting, Smithy... You've prooved us that "Hitch" was somehwat better than making such a... weak album.
