Aug 4, 2011If he was hoping to prime his artists for individual success, he's got a long way to go. But if he was simply looking to keep Maybach's name on everyone mind via a loosely defined collection of bangers, well then it looks like Rick Ross still can't do wrong.

Jun 17, 2011By the sound of this showcase for three rappers he signed to his record label, he's a good one [mogul]. Meek Mill offers gruff gangsta-isms; Wale flaunts his sleek bohemian-hardcore style on bragfests like "600 Benz." But the real find is Pill, who steps up to the major leagues without taking the street-level grit out of crack-trade tales like "Pacman."

Jun 17, 2011Ross is better when he's more ambitious, when he goes beyond the tired hood-rap/pop-rap divisions.

Jun 17, 2011The headliners don't seem like they're really trying, so even when the other acts are, they're still smothered by their leaders' apathy.

Jun 17, 2011With so many personalities vying for attention, the artists struggle to display their own individuality, instead constantly relishing in their new spoils.

Jun 17, 2011If Wale, Meek, and Pill could find a way to focus on their own strengths, maybe they'd sound more comfortable alongside their new boss. Instead, they all sound like they're trying to become mini-Rosses, and it doesn't work for them.

Aug 25, 2011It's an exhausting listen with all these guys trading the baton back and forth, but taking the songs out of context as individual numbers, most of them come off stronger than they do as part of a front-to-back listen.
