"Time and time again....it almost seems that success kills the musical passion for something better. This sounds like any other club music out today. Nothing original here. More of the same. I was really disappointed with the last one, but this is even worse. Twista really had my hopes up with the Adrenaline Rush title to the album and everything. I thought he might just come back with something special, but it turns out to be just more of the same sounding radio junk. Maybe cool to play in the club, but nothing I want to listen to in my spare time.
For the youngsters or people who are new to Twista; go get the original Adrenaline Rush, it's a straight classic."

"Twista was one of my hands down favorite artists ever since the original "Adrenaline Rush". I nearly melted that disk in my old Sony CD Player and have since bought AT LEAST 4 new copies of that album (I tend to lose CDs).
Unfortunately, ever since the original A.R. Twista's albums have gotten worse and worse (except for Mobstability which wasn't a solo effort). They say the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. I must be insane because I keep buying Twista's CDs expecting tight beats and his unique flows - instead I get watered-down beats and flows that are mediocre at best.
I hope his next effort is even half the CD that the original Adrenaline Rush was, this one wasn't even a tenth. If I lose this CD - I'm definitely NOT buying another.

"Twista's (A.K.A. Carl Terrell Mitchell) seventh solo album is "Adrenaline Rush 2007". Over the years I have enjoyed a number of Twista's albums and remember how slept on he was prior to "Kamikaze". The original "Adrenaline Rush" was a great album. Maybe Twista was looking to recapture that release. Times have changed though, and their is really nothing special about this release - I would like to see Twista do some more work with producer The Legendary Traxster - his presence is missed. Twista's last album "The Day After" - was full of love ballads to the ladies, and featured numerous guest appearances. This release is different Twista's getting "Charged" (started good, went nowhere) off Scarface getting blasted off the ledge, but that raw hunger he had seems to be gone. Toxic produced "Creep Fast" with T-Pain is a decent track, as is Twista's collaboration with Bone-Thugs-N-Harmony on "Ain't Noe Hoes". Track's like "Say Say" feat. Cee-Lo, Jazze Pha, Big Zak & "Love Rehab" feat. R Kelly are borderline corny, and don't touch Twista's past work, while the Neptunes provide very some monotonous production on "Give It Up". Production in general which mostly comes from Cuzzo & Toxic is below average. Easy to fast forward through this release, hopefully his next album is better."
