Shyne's Sophomore Def Jam Album "Gangland" Gets May 17 Release Date

i actually like this, got a bootleg of gangland, most the tracks on it probably wont be in final release, but i like it. of course it aint the 23 year old dude we used to hearin, hes 32 now. lots of shit can change in the span of 10 years. i will buy the album regardless if it sucks or not, our favourite nigga went away for 10 years, one of the few REAL gangsters deserves it. 3 guns went off that night and there was no possibility shyne did it cuz he fired warnin shots in the air. i will pay my tribute to a real gangster, especially one who is innocent and kept it real. I owe this dude alot, he instilled some pretty solid principles in me, i look to him when my backs against the wall. the realest motherfucker who ever lived, love it or hate it.

It's May 18th. Where's the album, or at least some news about it?

may 17 has past and i see NO ALBUM!

i'm looking for this. i think shine has grown with the times, and made his own lane instead of submissing to somebody else's lane.

Not looking forward to it.

Damn Shyne aint been rhyming or sounding da same. Wat happened 2 that Bad Boyz or More or less flow? I heard him on a rudeboy remix that was trash a song on da def jam site that was garbage and now this? Da rap game miss da old shyne. Checc me out at www.myspace.com/sosastaccs real lyrics no garbage rhymes

Is it the shyne we all know or is it this fucked up version Cuz if its the fucked up version i ain't buying shit! They should save their money and sell it only as a download!

shyne had very lil buzz for a while but is wack as hell now and will be lucky to sell 500 alumbs. its over

shyne that dude go get the album!!!

Shyne, Why did you do this to yourself? You have some great attributes as an artist that should have made your reentry into the system seamless. Here are some: -A great first album with almost no filler tracks. -An alright second album, which can be justified due to the stress of trial and potential jail time. -A solid street rep, the whole "riding for puff, defending your man in the club deal". Loyalty -Not a snitch. -Did your time like a man, a lengthy bid also. -Landed a deal with one of the best rap labels out. -Support of most of your peers. You could have really came out and really built on this tremendous story you have lived over the past ten years. The momentum was there. You got the resume and the support system (Def Jam) to get your music to the people and you are fucking wasting it. You're coming out with this dog shit music that is so bad that when I listen to your first album, I actually enjoy it less because I know what you have become. I have NEVER written a response to one of these columns on any website. You gotta get your voice together, nobody likes it the way it is now. Also, hire an A&R or be very discriminatory when choosing your beats. What I've heard you rhyming over is garbage. Thats pretty much it. If you are really going to release this album in May, you need to get these affairs in order.
