Huge improvement from "T.H.U.G.S.".......2006-07-31

Flesh-N-Bone's sophomore album was released in late 2000, following his release from Def Jam and the start of an eight year jail sentence. That's too bad, because "5th Dog Let Loose" is really a good album, head and heels above his 1996 solo "T.H.U.G.S." Flesh, the often forgotten member of Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, has a very unique flow, being one of hip hop's quickest tongued rappers and his delivery is great to listen to, with a great high pitched voice. Once you are able to decipher his triple-time rhymes, you will find entertaining stories of crime, spirituality, and his hometown of Cleveland, Ohio. He has a darker style than Bone usually does as a group, often referencing dark scripture and mystic spirits and such. I find "5th Dog Let Loose" better than "T.H.U.G.S.", which I thought had a lot of good material but was sometimes plagued with too much filler and dated sounding production. I had heard that this album was not great, so even as a Bone fan I was reluctant to check it out, but I'm certainly glad I did. Damon Elliott and company definitely stepped up the production for this go-round, and I find it easier to follow Flesh's lyricism on this album as well. I definitely recommend "5th Dog Let Loose" to all Bone fans, because this is some of Flesh's best work.

Following an overly-long intro, the album starts with "Hero", a dark and entertaining song, definitely a highlight. Next comes one of the best, a Montell Jordan collaboration called "Amen". The beat samples OutKast's "Git Up, Git Out" and Flesh speaks of the struggles of life and provides hope. Montell's appearance adds well to the song and it's a very strong cut. "Way Back" is also a great song, featuring his brother Layzie Bone. He reminisces over dead rappers, namely Eazy-E, the Notorious B.I.G., and 2Pac. I also really like "If You Could See". The production is very unique but I like it. Flesh is aided by Wish and Layzie Bone, another very good track. "Word to the Wise" is a tough warning track, reminiscent of some on "T.H.U.G.S." "The Master" is excellent, it sounds like a song Krayzie Bone would record, another album highlight. "Say A Little Prayer" is an introspective and spiritual track, it shows Flesh's versatility and has good production too. "Havin' A Ball" sports probably the best beat on the album, it's a unique strings-and-bass production. It's a happy song, I really like it. "Kurupted Flesh" brings west coast veteran Kurupt for a guest appearance to make a surprisingly conscious and relevant song. "Deadly" is awesome, the production has great droopy bass and even a harmonica. "Come F**k With Me" has an excellent chorus and more great production. "No Other Like My Kind" is a nice track, and the BG Knocc Out collaboration "Silent Night" closes the album on a tough note. It seems like a fitting sequel to their first collabo, "Coming To Serve You".

Overall "5th Dog Let Loose" is an impressive album, definitely the best work Flesh has ever pulled off by himself. Damon Elliott definitely stepped up the production, and the album shines. I recommend it to all Bone Thugs fans, because it showcases a different style but has a lot of the same appeal.

Solid Sophomore Effort.......2006-06-07

Flesh without a doubt is the most underrated bone thug to hit the mic and desirves alot more credit than he gets. His flow is abit unique from the rest of the members but he spits some of most hardest and fastest flows in the group and his performance on this album shows it.

This is flesh's comeback album after serving time in prison prior to his arrest back in 1996, and he does not dissapoint. The album production wise is not up pare with his debut which is to me a classic. As I said the production is this albums biggest flaw but flesh lyricaly sounds better than ever, you'll even be surprised how much he improved.

Here's a litte review on the tracks:
Hero~A long intro but a good start for the album 8/10
Amen~One of my favorites on the album. Flesh hooks up with R&B singer Montell Jordon, the beat and lyrics are above average 9/10
Way Back~A good tribute to the fallen rappers, Weak production but good appeances by layzie Bone and chas howse 8/10
If You Could See~Probally the best song on the album, the beat is crazy along with the help of layzie and Wish Bone 10/10
Word To The Wise~I just wasnt fellin this song as much as the rest but flesh delivers well 7/10
The Master~flesh flows fast as hell on this track and lyrics are above averge with a decent beat 8/10
Say A Little Prayer~an average track with a good spritual feel
7/10
Havin A Ball~weak production, lyrics average just wasnt fellin it 6/10
Kurupted Flesh~good track with a good appearance by kurupt, hard ass beat 9/10
Deadly~Flesh delivers fast and well on this track with an average beat 8/10
Come f*** Wit Me~Poor production flesh's lyrics makes up for it 6/10
No Other Like My Kind~Average track, nice hook from Chas Howse
7/10
Silent Night~Another average track with appearances from BG Knockout and Damon Elliot, dark beat 7/10

This album has its highs and lows but it deserves more credit than it gets. I would recommended this CD to any bone fan and rap listener out their.

BEST ALBUM FROM THE 5TH DAWG.......2006-01-07

FROM THE USE OF R&B SOUNDS WITH MONTELL JORDAN TO THE STREET TONES WITH BONE MEMBERS AND KURUPT. THIS IS HIS BEST ALBUM AND ONE OF THE BEST ANYONE FROM BONE HAS RELEASED. IF YOU ARE GOING TO BUY AN ALBUM FROM A BONE THUG MEMBER, BUY THIS ONE!!!

OK 2nd solo album.......2005-09-04

The first member of Bone to break away and go solo comes back almost 4 years after his debut with an average album. I like his debut better. There's no denying he can flow but this album didn't catch my ear that much. 13 songs again (like his debut) 2 are good, the rest are average, 1 I skip. Guests are on 4 songs rapping and 1 doing the hook so you get a good deal of the 5th Dog. Production is also average (oddly cause the main producer on here usually has tight beats). Damon Elliot did 10 of the songs, Professor did 2 and Rhythm D did the other 1. A good album to have for die hard Bone fans but not the best Bone release.

#1 - 6 (has a 4 minute into before the song)
#2 - 7 (f/ Montell Jordan)
#3 - 7 (f/ Layzie Bone & Ms. Chaz)
#4 - 6.5 (f/ Layzie Bone & Wish Bone)
#5 - 8
#6 - 5
#7 - 6
#8 - 6.5
#9 - 6.5 (f/ Kurupt)
#10 - 8
#11 - 7
#12 - 7
#13 - 7 (f/ BG Knocc Out & Damon Elliot)

marf.......2001-02-19

this isnt just the best solo cd of flesh but i think this is the best bone solo with the great songs of (amen,way back,if u could see,& kurupted flesh) i think even after the release of layzies first solo album and the releases of bizzy and krayzies next solos fleshs will still be the best solo

5th Dawg Fa Sho!.......2000-11-10

Best Bone solo yet! This collection of hymns and mystic lyrics are Flesh's best tracks yet. Tha Master's beat is awesome. Truely a tight LP.
