Drag-On Albums (3)
What The Critics Say
Four years separated Drag-On's solo debut and his second album. If there had been any doubt prior, Hell and Back proves that he isn't one of Ruff Ryders' greatest assets -- although, given his company, that's not a big knock. The guest MCs -- including turns from labelmates DMX, Eve, Styles P -- are nearly outnumbered by the rotating cast of producers; Swizz Beatz and Rockwilder turn in solitary beat-making appearances. "Tell Your Friends" would be a highlight on just about any album, which has a lot to do with up-and-comer Neo's production work and Jadakiss' appearance on the mic. ~ Andy Kellman, All Music Guide
What The Critics Say
The best pure rapper in the Ruff Ryders family after DMX, Drag-On debuted with Opposite of H2O. The album pushes tough grooves, thanks in part to trackmasters Swizz Beatz, and hardcore raps, featuring every major member -- DMX, Eve, the LOX -- of Ruff Ryders. Despite the many guest spots, Drag-On remains the focus of the album, profiling his skills on the radio-breakout "Split These Bars." ~ John Bush, All Music Guide
