after "just a friend", but not "just"another album

Not as good as the album before it but it is still good. I have the original album before the law suit.The song "Alone Again" is cute. No wonder the original makers tried to sue, they probably were jealous. Overall this album is just Biz being Biz. Talking about women(Alone Again,Road Block,Romeo&Juliet),Digging Boogers and things of that nature(Toilet School Rap).But the best song on the album, the first single, is "What Comes Around Goes Around"-where Biz tells the story of a high school sweet heart who dissed him but is now on his jock because he blew up as rapper. A well written song, good sampling, you definitely will bob your head to the smooth laid back beat the Biz raps too. It's a cool album especially if you are a Biz Fan. March 24, 2000

Good, but not all

I agree, it is a great C.D., but due to a lawsuit, the companion piece to "On and On" entitled "Alone Again" is banished from the album. This is a great tune. Fourtunately, many people bought the album after the "Just a Friend" craze and sold it to used record stores. So buy the album, but then go and find the real version... September 18, 1998

Biz Markie's best album.

Biz Markie is one of a kind. He's can make the super silly sounds with his mouth and he rhymes with a style all his own. He started as a human beat box in New York and went on to become an MC. Sometimes when he's getting extra saucy on the mic it sounds like he's got a sock in his his mouth but it somehow sounds great anyways. Another thing about the Biz is that all his rhymes don't have that "It's all about money and fame" kind of feel to them. He's just about keeping things real and best of all, he's not afraid to act stupid or silly on the mic. This is evident on all the albums because he always has one song that is nothing but shout outs and thank you's to everyone who helped him out. Check out "Kung Fu" and "On and On". Those two really showcase his talent for the silly but tight rhyming style he has perfected. "Leggo My Eggo" is a great Biz mushmouth style song. Get if ya don't got it. May 16, 1998
