As one half of the Queensbridge rap duo Capone 'n' Noreaga, Victor "Noreaga" Santiago's street credibility is based on his ability to rhyme over catchy, head-nodding beats while utilizing his own street slanguage, underdig (read: you understand)? Employing the services of knob twiddlers du jour the Neptunes to create sure-fire dance-floor hits, Pharrell Williams bangs out yelzabulb (read: off the hook) drum programs on the dated "Grimey" and the anthemic "Head Bussa." The Norebonics routine gets a little tired on "Nahmeanuheard" (and its remix featuring Capone, Cam'ron, and Fat Joe), as does the XXX-rated exercise in juvenilia on "Big D," featuring emcee turned pornographer Akinyele and foskeeezy (read: foul girl) Heather Hunter. But N.O.R.E. proves that he's not completely vacant on the eloquent "Live My Life," featuring a crooning Ja Rule on the chorus. With phat tracks laced by EZ Elpee and a rejuvenated Swizz Beatz, N.O.R.E. has no problem keeping things shamone (read: moving). --Dalton Higgins
