    In many ways, the songs "Nothin' on You", "Airplanes" and "Airplanes, Part II" are the highlights of the album. However, the album is one of the greatest of 2010.

    This album is fantastic. My favourite songs would have to be Don't Let Me Fall & Airplanes Part II. Seriously, if you love rap or even pop, this is the album for you.

    The rags-to-riches rap is a cliched one, but Simmons’ take feels brave.

    There are many quirks with this album, but realise that it doesn't feel like a debut from a fully-formed artist, rather someone that intermittently flickers with potential and then dials it down to play it safe for the radio.

    The Adventures of Bobby Ray is a hip-hop Scary Movie, tossing off references (Vampire Weekend sample, Rivers Cuomo cameo) while struggling to establish a distinctive identity.
