Title: Not for all tastes
Product review: Although this album was much hyped in many divergent sectors, I wish to warn that it ain't for all tastes! To my mind it's way over-produced and too poppy. If you like solid rap like A Tribe Called Quest or Ice Cube and don't like contemporary Urban R & B, or whatever it's called these days, you probably won't like this. If you like "Can't Stand the Rain" or anything else you've heard off of this album, you'll probably like it a lot. It's consistent, and does very well on its own terms. Unfortunately those terms are not mine. The only tracks I like are, ironically, Busta Ryhmes' "Intro" and "Outro." And it's not that I don't like women rappers or pop--what I've heard of Lauryn Hill's album I've been impressed with and can't get out of my head (and I like her work with the Fugees).
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
