Nobody was sure if Green Lantern could get over his highly publicized split from the Shady/Aftermath empire, but this new joint should put any and all haters to rest. Packed with a ridiculous amount of exclusives from all the biggest names, Alive On Arrival could be the mix of GL's career. It's hard just trying to figure out what to mention first. There's "The Ice Cream Man" with Pharrell kicking a shocking decent freestyle over a hard GL beat. There's Juelz teaming up with Dem Franchize Boyz for the crossover snap music joint "Show You What I'm Workin' Wit." Ghostface and Busta get gully on the unreleased "Blow His Head Off." The list just goes on -- seriously, it goes on for 35 tracks. T.I., Jay-Z, Bun B, Jeezy, Lil Wayne, Dead Prez... you name it. A strong comeback for the Evil Genius.
