Average for Ice-T

Review Score: (6/10)
For me Ice-T is one of the best rappers ever and I've spent long hours listening to his hardcore gangster rap. Kind of odd for a middle-aged white guy but what can I say? His in your face, pro-freedom of speech attitude is one that I hold myself. He is one of the founding fathers of gangster rap and one of it's most innovative lyricists. I've seen Ice-T do his rap act only once but have seen him with his band Body Count four times and he puts on a tremendous show.

Return of the Real is not a bad album but I scratch my head and wonder what in the heck Ice-T is trying to sing a ballad for. The album gets a little tedious at times but it listenable (can I create a new word?). But there are no outstanding songs on this album.

Unfortunately this album gets 0 stars. There are not songs worthy of star rating. But none of the songs are bad either.

Ratings: CDs are rated simply by how many good songs are on the album. Great songs get two stars, and good songs get one star. Songs that get no stars are those that I might like but not enough to give it a star or ones I find boring or actively dislike. CDs are not penalized for songs that I don't like because they are easy enough to skip over. There is no maximum number of stars a CD can get, but of course the more stars it gets, the better the CD.

As with all reviews, these are my subjective opinions on the album.
