Bulletproof Wallets is Ghostface’s third album, following his stunning opener Iron Man and the almost as brilliant Supreme Clientele. Ghostface is perhaps the Wu Tang’s best rhymer, only outshone by Method Man’s charisma and ODB’s lunacy. Can he maintain his high standard? In short: not really. This is the softest, least inventive Ghostface work yet, exemplified by the sappy lead single “Never Be The Same Again”, a remarkably bland piece of early 90s style R&B featuring Carl Thomas. Bulletproof Wallets contains a lot of this type of material such as the limp-leafed “Forest” and weepy “Theodore”. There’s nothing wrong with hip-hop soul and the Wu have produced some of the best-loved ballads in the last 10 years (Raekwon’s “Heaven & Hell”, Method Man’s “You’re All That I Need” for example). They just have to be good. The RZA, Wu Tang’s lynch pin produces five of the 16 cuts but seems still stuck in his Bobby Digital phase, low on energy, high on experiment. There are good moments on Bulletproof Wallets. Both “Teddy Skit” and “The Sun” are heavy in ya face New York grandiose hip-hop, “Flowers” is catchy and “Ghost Showers” (which uses an old Biz Markie sample) is the obvious hit. Yet in comparison to what has come before Bulletproof Wallets is far from foolproof. –Jake Barnes
