A+ - Hempstead High
A+ exhibited enough potential on his debut album The Latch Key Kid for many to consider him as being one of hip-hop's most promising future lyrical assassins. After all you do not hear many 14-year-old shorties rocking the mic as profusely as he did on his debut. However after a two-year layoff in between LP's, A+ has moved on to present himself as hip-hop's version of Usher. But not only has A+ lost his innocence, he has also lost any sense of originality. The few gems on this album stick out like a sore thumb, since they're few and far between. When A+ sticks to simple, yet effective beats and rhymes, he reaps the benefits, as on "Parkside Garden." A+ desperately needs to find his own unique identity and style. "Hempstead High" is aptly titled as it is a high schoolish effort at best; hopefully, with his next LP A+ will mature mentally, instead of physically, and come into his own. Released March 23, 1999 on Kedar Entertainment, the album peaked at #60 on the Top R&B/Hip Hop Albums.
