The best word to sum up the career of Ghostface Killah is consistent. From his debut album "Ironman" to last year's incredible "Fishscale", and what some consider a classic "Supreme Clientele" in between, Ghost has given his audience exactly they want each time out from day one. His latest "Big Doe Rehab" is no different and might be one of the best Wu-Tang artist solo albums of all-time.

The album opens with "Toney Sigel AKA Barrell Brothers" as Ghost is aided by Beanie Sigel who delivers the verse he should have dropped on Jay-Z's "American Gangster" album. The beat is fire and is provided by the "it" production duo of the moment, Sean C. & LV, who give the track an electric guitar charged backdrop and some serious head nod factor. From there the listener gets the outstanding "Yolanda's House" featuring Method Man & Raekwon. What makes this cut so great is that it shows that cohesiveness and true Wu-Tang vibe that was missing from the group's new album "8 Diagrams." The storytelling aspect of the cut (something that is very prevalent on "Big Doe Rehab") will remind the listener of the picture painting ability of Ghost and Rae originally brought to the forefront on Raekwon's "Only Built 4 Cuban Linx."

"Big Doe Rehab's" intended first single "We Celebrate" feat. Kid Capri has just a little too much going on. Ghostface, who never falters on this album lyrically, holds strong but Kid Capri's yelling over the track and a beat that becomes almost unlistenable after awhile thanks to a sound that can only be described as holding down the shift key on your keyboard too long make this cut one of the questionable tracks on the LP.

It's tough to single out songs on an album that is so strong, but the highlights can't be denied. "Walk Around" once again sees Ghostface in that classic storytelling mode as he tells the story of blasting some dude and then bookin' it with a lot on his mind. The song is outstanding and is everything that makes Hip-Hop great. A solid beat from Anthony Acid, vividly descriptive lyrics like "flashbacks of me blowin his brains out/all I remember is my shirt I couldn't get the goddamn stains out..." and a dirty soul hook. Perfection. "White Linen Affair (Toney Awards)" is probably the most fun you'll have listening to a Hip-Hop song this year. Ghostface and Shawn Wigs break down the scene at a fictitious awards show as they run down all the celebs in attendance:

"we got D-Block, Wu-Tang, Jay-Z and Nas/also performing 50 Cent, Terror Squad/from the south we have the great Luda, Jeezy and Wayne..." If this song doesn't make you smile while at the same time banging the shit out of your head, you probably don't like Hip-Hop.

"Killa Lipstick" sees Ghost, Method Man and Masta Killa talk about their encounters with various females over a smoothed out cut that gives the album another one of its best moments. And as always, Ghost is lyrically a beast while still injecting some humor:

"Hey yo this white chick from L.A., she smell like Downy..."

Additional highlights include the should-be-single "Slow Down" Feat. Chrisette Michele and "Supa GFK."

The entire "Big Doe Rehab" album will remind the listener of Wu-Tang's glory days. The album is Ghost's best solo release since "Supreme Clientele" and depending on your preference, "Big Doe Rehab" might even be a little better.
