This is one of the more musical hip hop albums out there; production by the legendary Jay Dee makes this an awesome aural experience. Throughout almost every song, there is a tasty groove, making this something you'll want to listen to all the way through. But the rhymes failed to inspire me. First off, there is nothing new here content wise, the same old egotistical BS, money, objectifying women, the whole standard regiment of material. Being a hip hop fan, I can look past this and consider other things, like rhythm, flow, all that stuff. Slum Village failed me on this as well. None of the members are particularly standout rappers, which really hurts the album. Still, the beats are SO good that Fantastic Vol. II is still worth picking up despite this rather major shortcoming. I mean, these beats are extremely good, some of the best I've ever heard in hip hop. To hear the combination of ultra sweet beats and quality rapping, make sure to get Common - "Like Water For Chocolate." Best rap album ever, no question.
