Fat Joe's Masterpiece December 30, 2002 J. Winder (Maryland) 7 out of 9 found this review helpful
Fat Joe's "Loyalty" is his best work yet. He has party tracks, grimy cuts, and tear-dropping music wrapped in one package. The album starts of with "Take A Look At My Life" which he let people know that he's still the king of NY. His second single, "All I Need", is a love song dedicated to women. The song features Tony Sunshine and will definitly please anyone who listens, especially the ladies.. "We Run This Sh*t" is a high-bass song that will get everybody rowdy and tear the club up. "Crush Tonight" is a party track that will make everybody and their mama dance. The genuine tracks on the album does not stop there. You will be pleased with every song on the album. On this record, Fat Joe proves he's the realest and one of the best rappers out.
Loyalty to what? (1 and 1/2 stars) November 29, 2006 Nuisance (Miami) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Wow! All these five star reviews for this album is kind of questionable. Let me start by saying that Don Cartegena was Fat Joe's best album. After Big Pun died Fat Joe went pop with the quickness and put out his worst album at that time J.O.S.E. Fat Joe has been in a downward spiral into hip pop hell ever since and he keeps it moving with this one. There are four standout tracks which are Take A Look At My Life, Gangsta, We Run This S*** and Prove Something. Fillers: Bust at you is unwashed butt plus anytime Birdman has a better verse than you in a song you need to retire promptly. In Born in the ghetto he tries to get deep but falls on his face. Turn me on would turn off the most skankiest broads(yes its that bad), Ts Piece is a wack club record that would clear any dance floor(even [...] ones LOL), Loyalty is wack plus the subliminal diss he threw at Cuban Link has to be the softest subliminal in rap history. Dont get me started on the slew of songs for the ladies he has on here(Crush Tonight, Turn Me On, All I Need etc. Read the chorus for Life Goes on and tell me if Fat Joe isnt guilty of statutory rape:/she was sixteen/maybe seventeen/I was eighteen/ nineteen/ maybe a little bit more/ YIKES!!! There you have it another garbage album from a rapper who made a song with Paris Hilton(WTF WAS HE THINKING?).
His best effort to date. June 26, 2003 Robin J. Cantone (New York, New York United States) 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
Ever since his debut in the rap game in 1993, it was clear to the rap world that Fat Joe was not a very tight rapper, and he drifted off into the realms of artistic mediocrity enjoyed by many of his peers in the industry. It took the death of friend and partner in rhyme Big Pun, the abandonment of Terror Squad compadre Cuban Link, and two R&B- laced crossover singles "What's Luv" and "We Thuggin'" off of his solid fourth album to make him gain the attention of the mainstream. On "Loyalty," Joey Crack almost duplicates "We Thuggin'" with the catchy and thoroughly enjoyable single "Crush Tonight," featuring crooner Ginuwine. The second major single off the album, "All I Need" is a saccharine yet likeable ode to the strong women behind the rappers featuring a sweet harmonizing courtesy of Tony Sunshine, and average raps from Joey Crack and Terror Squad member Armageddon. The album's lyrics are certainly not profoundly original, but mostly standard "gangsta" fare. Too much aggressive, mindless shouting of profanities ruins tracks like "Take a Look at My Life," "Bust At You" (which should be great because it features Scarface), and "TS Piece." Although the lyrics don't cover new ground, and the booming outbursts of Fat Joe can wear dangerously thin, short moments of honest brilliance save this from being typical thugged out garbage. Much like friend N.O.R.E., Fat Joe knows he's not a crazy lyricist who can come with mind boggling rhyme schemes, so instead he just brings much needed reality into his rhymes. "Born In the Ghetto" is a highly effective plea for unity in the 'hood to fight the common evils of poverty and oppression. "Gangsta" is Fat Joe's heartbreaking highly personal critique of the gangsta lifestyle and the adverse flip side of his "Represent!" gruntings, set against a great beat. The last two tracks are also great clinchers. Joe's raps about social consciousness never become self-righteous or arrogant, and remain accessable and enjoyable for the boys back on the block. Although he's not the hottest rapper or king of the rap game, and not for everyone, Fat Joe delivers a fine album, definitely worth checking out.
edgar sanchez needs to be silent January 8, 2005 A. Alvarado 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Edgar thinks everything sucks. He needs to shut his trap and keep his opinion to himself because he's garbage. He's a classic hater and I bet he isn't even from LA. Yo Edgar I never heard of ya so get off Fat Joe, because you don't even exist to him or us real hip hoppets. Edgar go back into your hole and stay there. You fcking hater.
One of the hottest ever May 30, 2007 Jeremy C. Smith (louisville, KY) First of all let me say that I'm sick of reviewers saying that Joe is just aimed on going commercial. Coming out with a few party tracks on your cd isn't bad. Biggie, and 2pac did it as well, and many reviewers put them at the top. I believe fat joe is slept on b/c he is a latino. If he was black he would probably get more props. I'm black but I've been around latinos alot. Puerto Ricans have influenced rap just as much as the blacks and the jamaicans, but they fell to give them their props. Personally my favorite fat joe cd is jealous one's envy. But this album is a great listen from beginning to end. Enough party tracks, enough deep tracks, and take a look at my life is probably on of his top three songs ever. Not only is it a hype crunk song, it is also an anthem. Compare his party songs to the party songs nowadays. Now those songs are commercial. They don't have any talent. Fat joe can still spit as hard on party tracks as well as others. BUY THIS ALBUM.
