Album Description
I'm not tryin' to impress anyone on how hard my struggle was, or how messed up the conditions were where I came from,' says Plies. I feel like most of the people in my situation come from the same type of background, the same type of environment.Hailed as one of the realest n****s you will ever know, the Ft. Myers based rapper has already established a phenomenal underground and street presence on the strength of his infamous mixtapes and live show. Plies is a realest who happened to learn how to tell his story in rhyme. This is why the streets love him. And he reveals his revelations of earning stripes with the summer '07 release of his Big Gates/Slip-N-Slide/Atlantic debut, The Real Testament. Born in Ft. Myers, Florida, Plies grew up in the East Dunbar section of the city. It's a small town, but it's a town that reflects so much to me. You've got two separate sides you've got the serious side, then you've got the gutter side. I called it Pakistan because young gits were running around with choppers and s**t. Despite coming of age in the Michigan Court Projects, Plies says he wouldn't change it for the world. 'The only thing adversity does is reintroduce you to yourself. I got the most anticipated situation in the streets right now', says Plies. The streets told me that.

 Hot April 26, 2008
Plies is Hot! The whole CD is Hot and I am looking forward to more from Plies.
Only Hood people can understand March 2, 2008
This is the realist album I have heard in a long time. This album is for real hood folks and all fellas. Over 50% of this album I can relate too or anybody from any where in world at lease one song. If someone wanted to know what the hood is like this is a great way to find out this album. Piles touch home for alot people real talk this album get 2 more stars from me. I would buy it twice.

I got a child rated cd when I thought I was purchasing a reg. cd
Another attractive pop-rapping no-talent. December 16, 2007
Please, someone, Anyone tell me where they're all coming from?! I don't understand why Rap/Hip-Hop is in such high demands these days!!?
Wouldn't you rather listen to something with meaning ala Mariah Carey (!!), John Mayer (!!!), Keyshia Cole (!), Van Hunt (!!), Carrie Underwood (!!), Nelly Furtado (!!), Coldplay (!!!), Incubus (!!), Christina Aguilera (!!) or Mary J. Blige (!!)??
Anyway, I understand if your life is rough, you can't keep food in the family's bellies and you can't get a job because you're a minority then you can seriously relate to this drivel, but I just don't understand the "meaning" behind such "music".
Wanna clue me in??
BTW, nice production here and there (mostly nowhere) helps back up the worthless, monotone vocals and the abysmal lyrics. Sad to see that People like Plies are being hell-spawned every year it seems.
Cover Art: B+
Inside Art: ? (Never would own this. Listened to it, sadly.)
Songwriting: F
Vocals: F- (So damn common, and very annoying. He sounds like every other pop-rapper trying to make it...)
Vocal Emotion: F
Production: F+
Length: F+
1.5 stars - .3 for editing.
1.2 stars.
Overall: F-
Looks like the cover art is the only good thing about this CD.
