 just what i was looking for May 02, 2010
i found this cd at a very good price it was delivered on time, just in time!
A complete album based and focused on an actual concept! Aug 26, 2009
if you ever dreamt about rocking the mic, this album should be your testament, you should be able to laugh,ponder and agree with every track. with songs like "Don't Forget Em" and "Who Knew My Luck Would Change?" con proves its okay to be human sometimes and show that there is more to a man then just being aggressive. this album is well put together, how many albums you can find that the actual material,the cover and the title of the album are used to paint a consistent image?. this dude is ill he deserves more respect then 3 stars???

He finally got a deal! Oct 02, 2007
Like most people, the first place I ever heard of Consequence was when he had a few guest spots on a Tribe Called Quest's (overrated) 1996 album Beats, Rhymes and Life. He spit some very good bars there, and over the years he made plenty of appearances on mostly mixtapes and underground rap albums, but he had yet to get signed to a label. Thankfully, Kanye West picked him up and issued his official debut album.
Now, Don't Quit Your Day Job seems like a more suitable title for MIMS or Rich Boy's respective albums, but whatever the case, if you already like Conse, then this album won't change your mind. The science he drops proves for really innovative subject matter, especially the John Legend-assisted "Feel This Way", a unique story about a bad relationship. Family-oriented tracks also impress, like "Don't Forget Em", "Who Knew My Luck Would Change" and "Uncle Rahiem".
Also stellar are posse cuts, like "Grammy Family" (with Kanye and DJ Khaled) and "Disperse" (featuring some underground rappers). In fact, the only song that I can do without COMPLETELY is "Night Night", because being extremely violent toward a foe just ain't Consequence -- but actually, "Pretty Little Sexy Mama" is pretty okay. There are also a couple of otherwise great songs that contain extremely out-of-date adlibs, like "Ayyyyy-yo, aight!" ("Uptown") and "B better have my money" ("Callin' Me" -- although Conse doesn't use those exact words).
But the rest of the album is excellent enough for you to not even care. If Consequence's day job is rapping, then not only shouldn't he quit, he should also moonlight under the same profession because this album is as G.O.O.D. as the label he's on.

Don't Sleep on this Jun 30, 2007
This is in response to those reviews that have been bashing this CD. Seriously, we must be listening to different records here. Let's get this straight...First off, this album is a classic. If your'e a true Quence fan than you will agree with me. Consequence has a different sound and brings back what real hip hop is supposed to sound like. For the Kanye Riders...let me give you a little bit of history. First off, I love Kanye, but Consequence doesn't sound like Kanye, it's the other way around. Ye sounds like Quence. Quence used to write for Ye...and yes they sound similar, but they are both hot. I met Quence a few times at some networking parties and at the hip hop festival, and he's the nicest guy. Real Humble.(Yo Quence this is DAVE aka J-RE)Give this cat a chance...He's trying to bring back authentic Hip Hop so let him do it, If you dont like this album, that's your opinion of course, but don't sleep on it, it definately is a hidden classic.
