MEMPHIS BLEEK

'The Understanding' [Roc-A-Fella]

7.5

This will make a great Christmas gift.. no doubt.. Get this...

This is a solid album from one of Hip Hop's most underrated emcees, Memphis Bleek. The man has nice flows and tight beats.., There are hardly any throw away or filler songs on here. The only problem is that his subject matter tends to stay in the same vain.. so its either you're in the mood for Memphis or your not.. Stand out songs include "PYT' which is way different than the song Michael jackson did back in the day that has the same title.. 'My Mind Right' is a sizzling song that brings together the Roc-A-Fella family. here all three hand deliver solid blows to the head as there's no denying they are truly at the top of the heap right about now.. 'Hustlers' is a cool song.. But my favorite is 'In My Life' where Memphis really opens up and shows a reflective side to his persona. I wish he had done more songs like..
