Album Review: Self Made 2-MMG

When people think of Rick Ross they think of a fat, stupid rapper, who can't rap to save his life. That may be true, but this album has not shown it. The album starts off with the lyrically strong, Power Circle. This song showcases the lyrical talent of all the artists, along with Kendrick Lamar. Every artist has a memorable line, including Kendrick Lamar, who drops probably the greatest verse of his career. This song, along with This Thing Of Ours, Fountain Of Youth, The Zenith, and I Be Puttin On take me back to Rozay's Deeper Than Rap days. These type of songs are what define rap from any other genre in music. Not only does MMG have more of lyrical prowess than other groups, they also are hardcore G's. Songs like All Birds, Black Magic, Black On Black, and Bury Me A G have Teflon Don feel to it. The Maybach Music Group never ceases to stop showing their versatility in rap music. (4 out of 5 stars)
