...Can’t Forget About You.” Best of all, Nas and Jay-Z reconcile on the triumphant “Black Republicans." It might finally be time to accept the post-”Illmatic” Nas.

...INCIDENT, AS THEY CALL IT, took a commercial toll, but musically the Chicks have never been stronger. The instrumentation on their fourth album keeps a toe in country, yet the songs are the best kind of pop--smart, instantly memorable and fussed over until they sound effortless.
