  1. Prove[s] they have something in common with Common: They can be conscious without being soft. [24 Jun 2005, p.162]
  2. United States of Atlanta is guilty of just about every modern hip-hop cliché in the book... but its glimmering, capped-toothed, post-millennial party platform is a rousing success in spite of itself.
  3. 80
    Alongside the sexually explicit likes of "Pull My Hair" and "Wait" sit conscious soul and creamy R&B. [Nov 2005, p.94]
  4. It's no secret the Twins get gully. Fortunately for listeners, it's very contagious. Unfortunately, it comes at the expense of lyrical content.

    Prove[s] they have something in common with Common: They can be conscious without being soft. One review said that, proberly written by a person that honestly believes 50 Cent is not mainstream and sounds good on a mic. Ying Yang Twins have talent for making songs that sound exactly like all other Crunk songs. That is not a way to progress as an artist. Expand
