  1. AllMusic

    Even with its wobbly mix of yesterday, today, a better tomorrow, T.O.S. is much closer to classic than failure and should reassure fans this slow-moving tank is pointed in the exactly right direction.
  2. Billboard
    70
    Ultimately, G-Unit has returned to its aggressive roots, but it would've been wonderful to hear it rap over a more varied assortment of beats.
  3. Blender
    60
    On this clamorous, relentless album, a violent death lurks in every bar (“Rider Pt. 2”), licentious catcalls have replaced slinky come-ons (“I Like the Way She Do It”) and guns seem to fire of their own accord (every other song here). In doses, it’s rousing. Over the course of a whole album, it’s exhausting.
  4. NOW Magazine
    40
    Sure, the beats bang like crazy, but the songs are emotionally hollow, thematically one-dimen­sional and conceptually lifeless.
  5. Boston Globe
    40
    After sifting through the storyline, it's just hard to figure out why these guys are important anymore.
  6. Rolling Stone
    30
    T.O.S. would simply be a middling posse record if it didn't further undermine its own cred by constantly referencing better rap songs.
  7. PopMatters
    20
    What’s truly embarrassing for G-Unit throughout T*O*S is the way Young Buck shows up (which he does on four separate occasions) and puts everyone to shame.

    THis album was pretty good with about 6 good songs. My personal favorites were you so tough, and no days. The beats were very good but 50 THis album was pretty good with about 6 good songs. My personal favorites were you so tough, and no days. The beats were very good but 50 cent and tony yayo tend to ruin the songs. Young Buck was o.k.

As an avid hip-hop fan, I am always looking for something fresh and new. This album shows that G-Unit is still trying to get paid off of their early success. There isn't any effort or skill shown in the album. I would definitely say, "Do not buy this album!"… Expand

    What ever it was that G-Unit once had that made them special seems to have expired 3 years ago. Overall this album just comes of as dated and What ever it was that G-Unit once had that made them special seems to have expired 3 years ago. Overall this album just comes of as dated and uninspired. When compared to recent albums by their contemporaries (Carter III for example is just far more interesting) it comes off ass downright boring. Everything from the production, lyrics, and the themes just seem tired, passe, and cliche. Instead of kicking people out the group, they should really look to add some new ones...anything to make them less boring and played out.… Expand
