Customer Reviews of Mind Control

another average album by a master emcee
Even though most of his albums are sub-par beats and production wise and theme wise, Canibus is still a mad tight emcee. It's just his direction. Its way off. He would do well to hook up with a tight producer, even a mainstream one. If he stays true to his lyrical skill he can never sell out. His themes are okay, they have never really been that great, but they allright. His lyricaL flow is sometimes amazing, sometimes so-so. Its always hit or miss with this guy. But I like this album better than hip hop for sale. I would still recommend any canibus album to rock at least a few times. His is an ill rapper who gets no credit or respect. He is hell bent on ripping emcees and being angry, and that's cool, but he needs more. I think his flows about weed and woman are weak, and sometimes he ego trips. Mind control is still pretty tight. The tightest track are: 33 3's,Gybaotic,Mind control, Last laugh, the rest are all right, some are forgetable.

Very little material, but 3 or 4 hot songs.
There are at least 3 songs on this album that for any real Canibus fan make it worth the money. "33 3's" is a simply brilliant song that displays 'Bis in classic form. "Mind Control", the title track, has a great beat with a catchy, more-mainstream hook, but with good though less abstracted lyrics. "Talk the talk" is simply hot lyrics with a nice beat to it that will grow on you. Here Canibus comes hard against his critics and detractors in an effective way. Those represent the core of this 11 track album, while a 4th --"Canibus Man"-may deserve mentions as a decent Canibus track over a rap-rock beat with a fierce tone, but not Canibus at his best in my opinion. <

>"Last Laugh" and "Stupid Producers" have both been featured elsewhere and both represent decent, though not great Canibus material. The rest of the album is consists of good lyrics mitigated by melodramatic and often difficult to listen to delivery, mixed with poor beats. Not much worth mentioning. <

>As always Bis shines on the mic with sick lyrics, and "33 3's" especially demonstrates classic Canibus concept and lyrics that his die hard fans love so much. Over-all though, we have 11 tracks, one of which ("Nobody") isn't even an actual song (and was also previously featured on the "My Name is Nobody" cut). So what we have here is really 3 good songs, 1 pretty good one, 2 good ones that were previously out there, a few other songs ranging from junk to decent (depending on if they grow on you) and an introspective and very philosophical outro track that is also old material. Is it worth your money? To the average hip-hop fan? Probably not. Go pick up "Mic Club" or "Rip The Jacker" or any other of his albums for that matter if you want a better sense of Canibus' talent. <

>For a true Canibus fan? You've probably heard around 33% of this already anyhow, but the good songs might be worth the dough; think of it as a pricey single. Still, while this might be somewhat disappointing-particularly considering the quality and progression begun by his last two albums-it's still worth 4 stars based on the quality of the 3 or 4 good songs, and the other 2 or 3 decent (though old) songs on here. But the lack of content and the reuse of old stuff is pretty depressing. <
