Not done: the "Critical Response" section is already pretty bulky. It's not necessary for Wikipedia to include a capsule summary of every review that has been posted on the net. Tim Pierce (talk) 19:12, 23 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Yes then why don't we replace one or two reviews then? IMO we should have at least one review from hip-hop website or publishing and similarly for reggae. I really don't understand why we need to keep the Rolling Stone "review" (which is really just a rating and a couple of lines) just for the sake of reputation. Do U(knome)? ^yes..._{or no} 12:57, 26 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Jeff Weisses review, for the Los Angeles times, should be removed. if you go to the link and scroll down the comments, you will find one from him saying "I didn't really listen to this so sorry for the wack review". Thus it should not be included.

chart source

Latest comment: 14 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The chart source for the Canadian Albums Chart should be provided by Jam!, which according to wikipedia is "currently the only media outlet that publishes a comprehensive collection of the official Canadian record charts as compiled by Nielsen SoundScan and Nielsen Broadcast Data Systems". This source shows the chart positions for Canada according to Nielsen SoundScan. Billboard should be used for US charting, since its charts concern sales in the US.
