Miami DJ assembles an impressive assortment of guests (Beanie Sigel, Bun B, Young Jeezy, Kanye West) on an album that transcends the limitations of officially licensed mixtapes.

Literally, Khaled's work begins and ends with his home.

ALL MUSIC
Khaled has gone from behind the scenes to mixtapes to killer compilation host, all the while keeping his ear to the street. You can reap the benefits here.

HIPHOPDX
It’s sad to see such a cast fall so terribly. All of these stars could have contributed to make this a great compilation of today’s hit-makers. Instead, they treated it as if it were a mix-tape, unworthy of inspired rhymes and strong delivery.

While Khaled’s debut doesn’t always boost his A&R rep, it’s still worth a good listennn.—

Rap Reviews
Here's hoping if he's going to keep releasing mixtapes or compilations he'll show a little more personality.
