    In order to continue to excel, he needs to move past the solipsistic and look outward. He raps better when he does.

How can an artist like Hopsin, who takes Eminem's personality, beats, flow, EVERYTHING, be ranked nearly as high as the man he copies? His lines are at times so corny I can't listen I.E.

It's not a perfect album (especially jungle bash...that sucked some camel but its damn close. RAW is the perfect album, but this one definitely gives RAW a run for its money. Hopsin raps from the heart and deserves much more than these people that get high and practically get their cats to piss on paper and try to pass it off as rap.… Full Review »
