12 INCHES OF SNOW.......2006-03-28

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS CD TO ANYONE WHO WAS GROWING UP IN THE LATE 1980'S EARLY 1990'S. WE ALL REMEMBER SNOW BY HIS SONG'S INFORMER AND GIRL IVE BEEN HURT. THIS CD DEFINITELY BROUGHT ME BACK TO MY TEENAGE YEARS WHICH WAS THE BEST.

Not terrible but not good either - this remains an "ok" reggae album.......2006-01-16

The only song people know by Snow (that is, *if* they even know who recorded it) is his hit single "Informer" from the early 90's. While that was a good song it clearly is nowhere near being a "classic". Unfortunately, Snow seemed to like this song SO much that he essentially made a remix of it on "Lonely Monday Morning" (it's the EXACT SAME WORDS but to a different beat and rhythm - at no point does he tell you it's a remix, either). The other funny thing about that is that "Lonely Monday Morning" happens to be the second best song on the album. If you've heard those two songs then you've essentially heard the rest of the album - more unique vocals by Snow and words that are impossible to make out (although, he IS actually singing the lyrics, but they're almost impossible to figure out if you don't have the lyrics right in front of you). Thankfully none of the songs are "bad" necessarily, but they're not good either - they're essentially just "ok". The songs tend to also sound a bit cheesy and dated which certainly doesn't help its appeal nor its rating. It's not the worst album I've ever heard, but it's not good either. Musically it's essentially a mix between reggae and hip-hop. and while it certainly sounds unique it doesn't really sound inspired either way. The fact that you can't understand any of what he's singing doesn't help the situation, either. As a whole it remains an "ok" album - I've certainly heard MUCH worse (Snow's voice helps, too, considering it's not bad). This is basically just for Snow fans or for people who absolutely love "Informer". Not recommended.

Highlights include:
"Runway"
"Informer"
"Drunken Styles"
"Girl I've Been Hurt" (sort of)
"Lonely Monday Morning"
the rest are just "ok"

Snow is GR8.......2005-06-20

People dislike SNOW because they think he is a wannabe. I think it is just jealousy. You try adapting R&B and reggae and pop all into 1 style. I think his music is ingenious. He has a good voice anyway. He is from poverty and was able to make a living doing what he loves. Don't get mad cuz you can't. I was the first in Kentucky to have 12" of snow back in 93 and still love it. Have murder love and justuss as well as the greatest hits. Haven't bought mind on the moon or two hands clapping yet but plan to. And like the other person was saying its about music not fads. I LIKE VANILLA ICE TOO!

12 inches of bullsh*t.......2005-06-13

"Snow" is a joke. First of all, he pretends to be a big black Jamacian, but he's actually pure whitebread. Snow, your photo on the cover of the album tipped us off, buddy. Plus, there aren't many black Jamacian rastamen that sing soprano. We know you ain't black.

Here's a blurb from his official site (http://www.snowontheweb.com/)...
"He [Snow] remains proud of what he considers the product of multi-cultural Toronto: Jamaican dancehall and American R&B filtered through an Irish kid who jokes that his only excuse for not "going country" is that he's yet to find a pair of cowboy boots he doesn't hate."

Uh Oh. Watch out, 'cause Snow is about to get his glock.

WHAT?!?!?.......2004-10-24

This album is one of the best albums ever. I understand that some people don't like his music and I understand that. What the thing is that everybody finds one artist, or style, or even both. When they do that, they say screw everything else. They say that Snow and Vanilla Ice are the worst ever, but I like them both(Old and new). I like ICP and Eminem. I like Bone Thugs-N-Harmony and Phil Collins. I like old and new. I like Lynyrd Skynyrd. It's all a fad thing to people, but if I like it, I'm gonna listen to it. Most people don't say they like Snow or Vanilla Ice because they're afraid to be mocked. I like the music for the music, not the name. I try to be a musician, but since I like so much stuff, I can't settle on one sound, but the only thing I really can do is rap. I can even sing a few of Snow's songs along with him. I got my first Snow album a few years ago, which was this one, and I've tried to collect them all since then. I only have Murder Love, Mind on the Moon, and of course this. I have relatives in Canada who could probably help me find all of the rest. Especially Two Hands Clapping because that's the next one I want. I can get Justuss really cheap online. Snow is my favorite artist ever and will always be, but I'm open to other artists too. Now, buy this album and listen to the best thing the 90's ever had, but took for granted. Thanx a lot, because now I have to get his albums imported to buy them. Peace out!
