Hip Hop Music Reviews and Rap CD Reviews – The only source you can trust!

A number of years ago a certain magazine ruined rap album reviews by rarely going outside 3 and 4.5 on the 5 point rating scale. To this day most cats stick within those parameters with hip hop music reviews and R’n’B reviews. HipHopDX is changing all that, we’re using everything between 0 and 5 and dissecting LP’s with knowledge and perspective not seen often anymore. Credible rap CD reviews are about the only way to sift through all the garbage out there these days, HipHopDX has got that.

N.E.R.D. - Seeing Sounds
Monday, June 16, 2008 | Comments: 36
While most of the album is your standard Neptunes, experimental affair, N.E.R.D. suffers through immature lyrical content and limited subject matter, essentially detracting from the overall experience.
Plies - Definition Of Real
Friday, June 13, 2008 | Comments: 78
A pattern you’ll notice with Definition of Real is that it’s very hit or miss; still, it manages to have a cohesive sound.
Usher - Here I Stand
Wednesday, June 11, 2008 | Comments: 39
Usher doesn’t drastically stray to far away from what got him here, but compared to it’s predecessor, this album is more laid back.
Lil Wayne - Tha Carter III

Tha Carter III is flashes of brilliance surrounded by a number of rookie mistakes made by a young veteran of the game.
J Rawls & Middle Child - Rawls & Middle
Friday, June 06, 2008 | Comments: 3
Although not a breakthrough album for either artist, Rawls & Middle does just enough to keep Rawls on the producer radar.
Everliven Sound - Freedom
Wednesday, June 04, 2008 | Comments: 12
Everlivin Sound, the tag team of Cymarshall and Skit Skam, challenges the notion that important issues ought to be swept under the rug as a result of the art form gaining a much wider mainstream audience.
Little Vic - Each Dawn I Die
Monday, June 02, 2008 | Comments: 12
Little Vic isn’t reinventing the wheel by any means, but his understanding of the original East Coast sound and his ability to recreate it today’s rap scene without it sounding contrived is commendable.
J-Live - Then What Happened?
Friday, May 30, 2008 | Comments: 12
Then What Happened? is J linking with the producers who’ve proven themselves capable of crafting tracks equally as awe-inspiring as his lyricism and making J-Live whole again.
