Fun, but not quite what I was expecting.......2007-05-12

Aceyalone rocks this album well. I definitely give this album four stars because it is without a question really good. My only complaints are that every now and again it get's a little repetitive and the songs start sounding like one another, but overall an excellent CD. Favorite song off both cds is Mic Check Remix. Awesome.

All Balls Don't Bounce is mind-blowing.......2006-02-21

Basically, every time I want to listen to some real hip-hop, I put in "All Balls Don't Bounce". I've been listening to this CD quite a bit lately. I love "Arhthymaticulus", with Aceyalone's rapid-style delivery and its spacey beat. "Mic Check" is another great song here. Once you get into that drum-beat with Aceyalone spitting those non-stop abstract rhymes, you're hooked on this song and you can't stop bobbing your head. Makeba is another sure-shot winner here with its dark beat and bass in the background. Aceyalone's conversational rhymes are at their best on "Makeba." It might even take a few listens before you get into "Makeba" because of its intensely dark sound. "Mr. Outsider" has a semi-decent beat and is very cryptic lyrically. "Deep and Wide" is short and sweet with its mesmerizing beat and spiritual quality. The opening song, "All Balls", has a kind of jazzy feel to it, which allows for Aceyalone's rhymes to be very clearly heard and articulated. "Headaches and Woes" has one of the most bouncy beats on the disc, and Ace makes the most of it lyrically. He raps, "Because every so often I sit and I wonder why I even trip at all, cuz half are down when I get down, the other half want to see me fall." Clearly, he knows not everyone is going to appreciate his abstract rhymes and delivery, and this is his way of saying that. "B-boy Kingdom" is kind of a change of pace here as it is basically gangsta rap. It tells the story of some government plan to kill hip-hop and how Acey and his crew kill off the enemies. The thing about Aceyalone is that his rhymes don't seem to make that much sense. But, when you listen carefully, you discover there is some sense in his lyrics. Plus, his delivery is incredible. All in all, I would have to say this is a strong debut from Aceyalone. It's kind of difficult to listen to "All Balls Don't Bounce" from start to finish. That doesn't take away from the fact that it's a mind-blowing record. It just means certain songs could have been trimmed from the final cut. The bonus disc that comes with "All Balls Don't Bounce Revisited" is not all that essential. However, after hearing "All Balls Don't Bounce" a few times through, it is puzzling as to why Aceyalone is not more widely recognized and appreciated in the music world.

A lyrical masterpiece, straight from the underground.......2005-12-05

Aceyalone has always been one of the great underground emcees in the game. His lyrical talent is unmatchable, and he is, in my opinion, THE GREATEST MC OF ALL TIME. This is a classic; it has everything you want in an album, including masterful lyrics. Standout tracks: Arhythamaticulas, All Balls, Mr. Outsider.

The Greatest Show on Earth.......2005-10-19

Ace 1 Brings us Another tight album filled with abstract rhymes and funky jazzy beats. The music has a very laid back feel to it and it is the perfect soundtrack to chill to on a hot summer day. The samples on the album are quite different from anything youve ever heard from ACE before they range from 70s funk and jazz to straight up Westcoast Hiphop. This is the main reason why Ace is such a great MC instead of just releasing the same album every two years he does something completely different on each release. Ace is also a pretty dope lyricist he mixes abstract lines with story telling poetry and even though it may sound like giberish at first I find that the more you listen to ACE the more his lyrics make sense. This album is not quite a classic but it is still a CD that no true Hiphop head should be without 4 MICS

Hip-Hop Essential!.......2005-07-24

I feel pity for those of you who think that 50 Cent and Eminem are great hip-hop lyricists, they have nothin' on Aceyalone, he could easily outrap them for days, real hip-hop lives on the underground y'all, buy this if you love hip-hop and not pop rap!

Bring your mind to the table & have your dictionary handy........2003-11-20

Aceyalone by all means shattered my perception of underground hip-hop with this album. This cat altered all of the rules on this one. Never have I experienced a lyricis that can masterfully rhyme around, on and through beats that are difficult for the mind to wrap around. There is even a song on this album that requires a dictionary handy in order to grasp what he is talking about. When listening to Ace One you are not only bieng entertained you are bieng educated. But for those that can't fathom his musical style just remember that "All Balls Don't Bounce".

Best Aceyalone album out there.......2003-10-02

I like Aceyalone a lot, but I have to say this was the best of all of his music, from Freestyle Fellowship, through his solo career, and including his appearances on single tracks. This album is solid. Great beats and an excellent flow. This is a really difficult CD to find, too - I had to buy it through Germany... You should definitely add this to your collection if you like Aceyalone.

Do not sleep on this.......2003-01-18

Aceyalone of the freestyle fellowship is an unique indivisual. He has numerous styles that he dispalys on this album. I believe that this album was as unique as they come. You wont't hear anything about bling bling on this album. I like to call it abstract rap. Each song has a message of it's own. "Mic Check" is clearly th best song on the album. This album, without a doubt is worth checking out.
