AMG Review of Special Edition

Jason Birchmeier
All Music Guide

Cormega took a moment in 2004 to re-release his two commercially available albums, The Realness (2001) and The True Meaning (2002), as Special Edition, a two-fer released on his own Legal Hustle label that also includes a 15-minute trailer for his upcoming =Who Am I? documentary and some bonus tracks culled from his 2002 mixtape Hustler/Rapper. Boasting two excellent albums along with some enlightening bonus material, Special Edition is a valuable all-in-one package that should serve as an ideal introduction to those new to Cormega as well as an all-encompassing summary for those already acquainted.
