This bracing, addictive record takes the listener on a journey through anger to acceptance, finally arriving at a sense of calm. It's a great concept, and a great album.
At its heart, Anger Management is an overwhelmingly visceral, engaging, and consuming project.
This overpowering 18-minute release reveals Rico and Kenny to be the most high-voltage rapper-producer combo around.
Anger Management is a hell of a rap-production slapper, but most of all it’s a turning point in Rico’s evolution.
Instead of replicating last year’s hit mixtape, Nasty is clearly set on experimenting and expanding her sound. Even though it shows that she’s a risk taker, Anger Management is unfortunately half-baked.
Anger Management finds Rico Nasty continuing to be one of the boldest voices in the current rap landscape, but the project's brevity is unfortunately to its detriment.
