    The lack of pretense on his second album makes him an approachable Everypimp, and he gets nothing but love from [his] guests. [Dec 2004, p.138]
  2. 60
    More solid than spectacular. [Jan 2005, p.83]
  3. It's not that the album isn't good, it's that it pails in comparison to "Jackpot."
  4. Jackpot is superior in every aspect.

    This is a good album, nice pop mc rhymes, and great choruses from chingy here. An enjoyable album no doubt. the highlight being 'I really dont care'. This coming from a hardcore rap fan of canibus, mos def, del, nas etc... you hip hop heads need to open your ears and minds and listen to more trust me. just 'cos it blings and is commercial doesn't mean it lacks content. Peace. Expand

    This is horrible, bland, over-commerical rap of the worst sort. Chingy appeals more to adolescent females than gangstas. And his voice still sounds like an army of cockroaches crawling across a tile floor. Expand
