What makes this song special is the fact that he produced and wrote it alone. "All by Myself" is this album's sole jewel. Most of the hooks and beats are sub par, but his lyrics are profound and clever. As a unit, it is alright, but it won't be played in my CD player much. He also talks about his desire to leave the street life alone and his determination to be a good father to his son. Though the song as a whole is pretty weak, one can't help but appreciate his apparent reverence for our higher power. "Leanin' on the Lord" is mostly about Him. "All by Myself", like most of the tracks on the album, show a more mature, more adult Cassidy. I knew I had to listen to "B.A.R.S" because someone kept speaking about the last song on the disc called "All by Myself." He urged me to listen to the track, and when I did, I was really touched. It's truly amazing to hear what he comes up with when he has to do an impromptu rhyme. However, when I hear his freestyles, I am always impressed. For instance, I have listened to "Split Personality", "I'm a Hustla" and "B.A.R.S" and they were all decent releases, but none of those albums exceed decency. His strength is definitely freestyling, though. I have a lot of respect for Cassidy as an MC because, at his best, he's a phenomenal lyricist. So why would claim he's a gangster, ha ha not anymore, your rich wih your own club, liqior, shoes, clothes, and your saying that your still in the Streets, Quit Jay Z Quit. So overall Jigga Man might sell more with that weak American Gangster CD, but in overall, Cassidy showed that he has better skills then Jay Z now, Hova just needs to really retire cause 90% of his lyrics are bogus, like we know who he his since he basically introduced his personal self in "Reasonabble Doubt" Cash Rulez with Eve, And BTNH which is straight inferno with quick mic skills by everyone, and just basically they all stole the show. One of my favorite personal songs has to be "Damn I Miss The Game" in which he explains how Rap/Hip-Hop is dying down the core, for Example: Women, Clothes, Bragging what they have is getting watered down, Bumblegum rap is washed up with fake, foney, untalented cats, rented girl's in their videos, well you know the rest. With this release he can prove that he can be mature, And truthful about his personal self with the trials that he's been going through. For the past 2 years cassidy has been behind bars for 8 months, And the car accident that happened about a year ago sort of like what happened to Kanye many years ago. It's been 2 years since cassidy made an album which was "Da Hustla" back in 2005, And he's back to prove to make a great comeback with "Bars".
