Okay, okay, okay...

Review Score: (10/10)
You know, sometimes I get tired of people.

I'm tired of the people on here, whining and moaning because they bought the CD for "What It's Like" and got some rap songs. Okay, then, quick question. If you didn't want any rap, why did you buy a CD featuring someone who used to be in House of Pain -- A RAP GROUP?

Now, to the CD. Not that I'm an extremely huge rap fan (a moderate fan, yes), but this CD really appealed to me. It's a blend of thoughtful acoustic-laced ballads and hard-hitting rap. "Ends" and "What It's Like" are probably the best songs on the album, but it's not your standard "They-released-the-only-good-songs-on-single" CD.

"Today (Watch Me Shine)" is a somewhat mournful song, while "Painkillers" is a thoughtful rap stint in which Everlast raps from the point of view of a paraplegic who was shot trying to be tough under the influence of drugs. "Funky Beat" is your standard party song with, indeed, a funky beat. One of the closing tracks, "Seven Days" is a mixture of singing and rapping backed by a brass section which is actually upbeat.

Overall? I like it. I like it alot.
