So someone tell me, what's all the hype about? By the way, I'm not one of these people that hates southern or mainstream rap either.I really wanted to like this album, it just didn't happen. The lyrics are elementary and his flow doesn't exist. Honestly, if you look past the singles, a good 98% of this album is filler. Even on "Get Ya Mind Right" he says "I ain't gotta rap, I'ma do numbers." Truer words have never been spoken. Even Jeezy would agree with me.just listen to "Gangsta Music" to hear what I'm talkin' about. I think the record execs out there know that no one listens to words anymore, otherwise the good people at Def Jam would've never let this record see the light of day. The beats are the only thing that keeps this from being a certified drink coaster. Don't believe the hype though, Let's Get It: Thug Motivation 101 is simply a display of good production. Good hype got Lil' Kim a 5 mic rating in The Source and good hype has people thinking Jeezy is more than a below average rapper. Never underestimate the power of good hype.
