Hmmm... Maybe I should take action then. In that e-mail it said the book/shirt/hoodie was sent on February 15th and I still haven't received it. My book was sent that day too and I got it Wednesday. With my CD it was entirely a different Situation. I live in the UK and it turned a week later than it should and I also had to pay a customs of charge of €10 at the post office. All I can think of is that they haven't paid enough for the postage. As your getting a lot that could be the problem. Maybe... The customs rules for the UK and Schengen countries are different, I guess. I ordered that Die Hard Bundle and the cd arrived seperately, but I didn't have to pay extra for that. If the rest is not here in a few days I'll see what I can do.  |

Okay - here we go! Have taken a while to get around to this:
1. No Better Love
Not a bad opener to the album but definitely one of the more forgettable tracks. The beat is pretty standard but has a nice Westcoast Gangsta feel to it. (4/10)
2. Bad Man
Took me a while to get into this track. Has a nice 70's feel to it but T's high pitched voice and Mystikal's verse add nothing to it. Nice chorus though. (4/10)
3. California Dreamin'
Great track and a really good first single from the album. Great beat and T sings his heart out. The lyrics are a bit lacking but the chorus makes up for it. (8/10)
4. In My Eyes
Very well produced but takes a while to get going. Once it kicks in though it's a great album track with a real nice flow to the verses. (7/10)
5. Legendary
This is more like it! An absolute cla$sic with a timeless beat, great lyrics and a brilliant message to it too. Deserves to be the title track and continues the tradition of TQ's album title tracks always being amazing! (10/10)
6. I Wish
A great track to drive to! The beat is another pure TQ number and the lyrics are faultless
(9/10)
7. The Pusher
Weakest track on the album in my opinion. A standard gangsta beat makes it all pretty forgettable. (3/10)
8. Head
I like the beat to this - reminds me of 'Break it Down' from the mixtape. A bit of an obvious metaphor in the title! (6/10)
9. Nikki Ray
This one's really fun! Great lyrics and a beat that sounds like it was written in the 90's. Can't help but raise a smile listening to this one. (7/10)
10. Heartbeat
Quite like this and it doesn't outstay it's welcome. Again, a bit of a grower but worth sticking with it. (6/10)
11. Good Love
A really nice addition to the album and showcases some of the best singing around. Great to hear T's real band and some great feel good lyrics. (7/10)
12. Star
An abolute cla$sic and T actually manages to out-rap a rapper! The album hits it's stride just as it comes to an end. Great lyrics and a thumping beat - this is what T does best! (10/10)
13. Right Here
Wow! Another great track. Some have said T's gone a bit soft with the number of love songs on this album but when they're this good it really doesn't matter. (10/10)
14. Long Kiss Goodnite
A nice concise song to end the album with a great story to it and a lovely live band feel. (9/10)
OVERALL: A solid album with about half of it being up to T's usual standard and half just missing the mark. A few tracks are a bit forgettable and it's a shame that the album is shorter than what he has released in the past. Still the best singer/songwriter around though!
