Reviews
Craig Mack's debut album Funk da World was released under Bad Boy Label. The album is laid-back, funky and mid-tempo. It is influenced by the music of the G-funk of Dr. Dre. Craig Mack is not the best rapper in world but he has the right vibe with his raspy voice, casual and easygoing style is catchy. He lacks flow and variety in his songs but he suprises you with his badass rhymes. The album is what you need on the dance floor to get your groove on. --Mimi 04:45, 31 March 2007 (PST)
