Album: The Big Bang by Busta Rhymes (2006)
Genre: Hip-Hop | Style: Urban/R&B | Mood: Confrontational
Format: Album

Description: While his output has been less than consistent, Busta Rhymes has always been one of the most distinctive and entertaining rappers in hip-hop. THE BIG BANG (2006) found Busta evolving as a stylist and a rhymesayer, slowing down his patented breakneck flow a bit while losing none of his agility, complexity, or precision. He also expanded the range of his narratives to include more introspective writing, though he still rocks a party on club tracks like "Touch It." But the most notable thing here is the production.
