yeah it is, really solid from top to bottom. Haven't even bothered with BP3 or the new Raekwon really yet. I've listened to it about 6 times today.

I've been listening non stop since it leaked.

Alive/Soundtrack 2 My Life/Up Up and Away are so good.

I thought BP3 was actually pretty bad, I skimmed through Raekwon's cd, it seemed good, I'll have to give it a full listen.

BP3 isn't deserving of all the hate it's getting here (really, how can there be so many people who haven't even listened to the damn thing). There are some throwaway tracks, specifically the 1st two songs. It's a very odd way to start out an album with two unspectacular songs. After that, the album is pretty solid.

Listen to Already Home which features Kid Cudi to get a peak. I love that track. The final song Young Forever is good also. The style is completely and disappointingly different than previous albums, but it's not horrible. Compared to expectations, it's about a 6/10 but there are still some songs I really like.

I like Mr Hudson a lot. But Young Forever is awful, Jay seems off pace way too much, there just isn't any continuity. I also didn't like Already Home. For some strange reason I really liked On To The Next One though. I like Swizz Beatz though.

It just seems like a bunch of songs put together. There is no cohesiveness. An album should have direction and purpose. It just seems out of place.

Actually, changed my mind. Already Home is pretty good, the production (Kanye) is great.

Soundtrack 2 My Life is one of the best songs of the year. Cudi kills it.

Easily my favorite on MOTM. But Alive is awesome as well. The production on this cd is insanely good. Ratatat is so good. If you haven't heard their other music, it's worth at least looking up. Loud Pipes is really good. I love how he can go from that pop sound and sing the whole song then break into rapping a short verse at the end.

Young Forever is one of those songs that is so mind boggingly bad it makes you wonder how the **** a successful record company can come to be that would actually let it see the light of day. This song really just ****s with my head like it has to be some kind of sick joke or something.

Goes to show you everyone gets their rocks off in one way or other.

New Cudi is really good although there is two or three really bad tracks imo, I hate Ratatat but they do deliver I spose, Alive is so dank and awesome sounding I can't count how many times I've listened to it.

Can't stop listening to this song. I think Cudi is gonna really blow the **** up. He's really talented, he's like College Dropout era Kanye but upgraded. I hope this changes hip-hop- not that there are a bunch of copycats, but original artists willing to be open and honest about their lives, emotions, etc.

Kid Cudi's CD will go platnum, no doubt. There are a couple very radio friendly sounding songs on that CD. I have a feeling it will go over the heads of a lot of mainstream radio listener's.

It is a really really good CD.

Decided to flip it up a bit and now I am listening to the Slaughterhouse CD which has some absolute bangers on it.

I was very disappointed they didn't put "Move On" , but some bangers regardless.

The Jeezy song from BP3 has been stuck in my head for 2 days almost as much as Go Crazy was when I first heard that.

BP3 has grown on me, but for the most part the 2nd half of the album is pretty trashy.
