Entertainment WeeklyVocalists Tash and J-Ro are so compelling, you wonder why ex-Lik Xzibit gets all the attention. [27 Jul 2001, p.72]
-
Their fourth album rarely disappoints...
-
BlenderThe weirdest hip-hop album since OutKast's Stankonia. [Jun/Jul 2001, p.112]
-
In lesser hands, such a narrow lyrical focus might grow tiresome, but the group continues to make drunken belligerence seem downright charming, thanks to smart lyrics and perfect timing.
-
X.O. Experience is more commercial and polished than the group's previous three efforts.
-
Alternative PressOccasional missteps keep X.O. Experience from being a bottle of the top-drawer stuff, though it'll still leave you with a good buzz. [Aug 2001, p.91]
-
Yet while the familiar spirits-soaked verses of J-Ro and Tash will reassure old fans, it's the music here that should encourage them to set down their cans and bottles and listen.
-
UncutSonically exhilarating, yet the lyrical content remains as alluring as vomit on a Sunday morning pavement. [Sep 2001, p.104]
-
On X.O. Experience, their fourth album, the buzz wears thin.
-
While the album stays true to the group's legacy of alcohol-themed, head-nodding party anthems, it falls short by schematically aping other artists' music.
