Styles - A Gangster And A Gentleman
The buzz for this album was spurred by two singles in particular: the soulful memoir "My Life," featuring Pharaohe Monch and the herbalist's anthem "Good Times." But this album is more than just a two-track wonder, as Styles divides equal time between his bipolar persona. On the gangster side, Styles offers thuggish joints like the kettle-drum-laced "Styles," the stirring "Lick Shots" and the party banger "Soul Clap,". Styles shows a more humanist side on the laid-back "Black Magic," and expends heartfelt lamentation on the death of his older brother on "My Brother." The album's haphazard track sequencing detracts from its overall quality, as the songs don't transition well from one to the next. These minor glitches aside, Styles' debut hits hard like a double shot of Glenlivet or a haymaker to the thorax. Released July 9, 2002 on Ruff Ryders/Interscope Records, the album peaked at #6 on the Billboard 200 chart and #2 on the Top R&B/Hip Hop Albums and was certified gold by RIAA.
