Still a very good album by Juelz. Front of the album and near the end gets kinda weak and there are a few fillers but most of the samples are tight. I wish they would leave the "skits" out of here. I don't think anyone likes them. Neither "My Love" or "Let's Go" did much for me a second time.

1. The Champ is here - 6/10
2. One Day I Smile - 7/10
3. Okay, Okay - 8/10
4. Skit
5. Down - 9/10 - Touch of "My Love" in this one.
6. Monster Music - 10/10 Personal favorite although I wouldn't expect everyone to like it
7. Back Again - 7/10
8. My Problem - 8/10 Best lyrics on the album
9. How I feel - 8/10
10. Why - 10/10 Juelz's best performance besides "Who I Am"
11. Wherever I Go - 7/10
12. Skit
13. Santana's Town - 9/10 Getting alot of radio play
14. Skit
15. Squalie - 6/10
16. Rain Drops - 8/10 Tough song to rate. Lyrics are strong in beginning.
17. My Love - 7/10 Too much like the first one which was tight.
18. Let's Go - 6/10 Too much like the first one which wasn't that great.
19. Now What - 5/10
20. This is for My Homies - 8/10

Even though other Dip-Set members can rap better then this guy, Juelz Santana is the most creative in the Dip-Set game. That's why they buy his mixtapes and blasts it. This nigga got it going on like me. And he's the Year of the Boar. You know what that means?! It means that he's very truthful when he's rapping, the way how he feels, that's his damn business. And it's Truth, nothing made up. And if was made up then he must be stomed! See, Juelz, he's trying to get his paper, but he dosen't have to break his back and then say; He's Rich, He's Rich. Hell no! He does the Juelz Santana album and Mixtapes and then he handles his business. Man, give this nigga some respect, and he'll try to treat you the way you want to be treated! Or else he'll bite back at ya. And he also said that he will not be used. I don't want to either, it's the way of the world and work you're way out of it as a Young Rapper and Me as a Brother In Jersey instead of York.

Goodness Gracious never heard an album this good in a long time.. im not the kinda person that rates on lyrics.. i rate on the beats and how good the artist flows with the beat and with that im givin it a good rating
1. The Champ is Here - Just an Intro with alot of talkin, i would skip this one

2. One Day I Smile - Great Lyrics, Great Beat.. Nice Song with a Tribute to all the people who have passed away (Aaliyah, Big Pun, Pac, Biggie, Big L.. etc.) "9/10"

3. Okay Okay - Nice Beat.. but not really all that great to me "6/10"

4. Down (Skit) - Pretty Funny!!

5. Down - My Favorite Track on this CD.. HOT Beat! just a song that makes u wanna get on da floor and do ya thang.. a dance Song "10/10"

6. Monster Music - Nice Thought of havin' a Oprah in the background.. i guess it gets annoying after awhile.. this deserves the skip button "4/10"

7. Back Again - Nice Beat, one of those songs on the Cd that might get stuck in your head.. This Track is ONE of my favorites on the album "8/10"

8. My Problem (jealousy) - A pretty ok beat.. not all that special to me.. i guess this is a song that needs to grow on me "5/10"

9. How I Feel - Juelz is talkin' about how he feels on this song.. for about a minute and a half.. it has a pretty decent beat.. though i wish he made the song longer "5/10"

10. Why - Just a song to relax to.. a real calm with a nice piano beat in the background.. a slow song "7/10"

11. Wherever I go - Another Nice Song to relax to.. with nice bells in the background.. just one of those other songs that get stuck in your head... i like this song "7/10"

12. Santanas Town (Skit) - Another Funny Skit.. ha-ha!

13. Santanas Town - The First Single off his album.. its got a nice beat.. at first i didnt like this song.. but it grew on me.. the chorus is just a sing-a-long.. good song! "8/10"

14. Squalie (Skit) - The Funniest Skit on The Album!! You got to listen to it.. to get where im at

15. Squalie - A Similiar Beat just like Joe Budden's, She Wanna Know, pretty good song.. One of the Best Beats on the album.. A Definite song to listen to "8/10"

16. Rain Drops - GREAT LYRICS!!.. This is like a Gospel Song..Just like Juelz Said in the beginning of this song "ya'll prolly' wasn't expectin' this one" .. One of my Favorite Songs on the Album.. Another Definite track to listen to! "10/10"

17. My Love (Remix) - I guess they had a remix on this album.. but on the regular version it had Freeway.. my opinion : Just listen to the one with Freeway.. cause this one is no good!.. they shouldn't of made a remix in the first place.. Jones raps off beat on his verse.. i dont like this song.. though the beat is the only best part in this song to listen to . "4/10"

18. Lets Go - A Nice Remake of the Great Marvin Gaye Classic "Lets Get it ON" .. Great Remake! One of the Best Remakes i've heard in along time.. good song to bump while cruisin' "9/10"

19. Now What - Well, i guess on this song he has T.I. .. this is a club banger song.. definetely! .. the beat is awesome.. another good song to bump .. Great!! "8/10"

20. This is for my Homies - Great Lyrics.. The Beat is Annoying!! with the background sayin "MY GOD" constantly over and over.. and u can hardly hear what Juelz is sayin' .. i mean the lyrics are good. dont get me wrong.. but Juelz rappin' on this song just doesnt fit the beat.... so i would skip this song "3/10"

Overall: I like this album..Juelz Santana, in my opinion, is gonna be one of the hottest rappers out.. there is no beats that can beat "The Diplomats" beats.. just awesome!!. I would buy this album.. if i were you

Cam'Ron and the DipSet crew don't have the brightest lyrics. They typically tend to rhyme a word with itself, make bizarre analogies, and use similies to disgraceful measures; that is of course, if they rhyme at all. Juelz Santana however, seems to be slightly more lyrically sophisticated. While still basic, his rhymes consist more of actual rhyming and tell a story of progression. Most of these lyrics have a meaningful motive, although not always evident. In "One Day I Smile" Juelz speaks on the treacherous lifestyle of the projects, "follow me down this yellow brick road/ one-eight-seven, hello every ghetto zip code." Juelz also seems to be incredibly grateful throughout the record, which is refreshing, as is the simple style of few words, slow flow, in contrast to many rappers that try to fit in as much as possible, and the lyrics become overshadowed by beats.

The beats on From Me to U continue with the Diplomat style. Big bass, puch, thick samples, perfectly produced from the Heatmakerz. I can't get enough of these beats...they never get old...what can I say, I love them.

Every track on this album is good. Great beats, decent lyrics. Just make sure you can stand the style and ever-so-basic rhyming that is the Diplomats.
