Loso's Way

Fabolous

One of rap's most renewable resources, Fabolous can always be counted on to provide many of the same things on each of his albums. His fifth full-length disc, Loso's Way, delivers on every front once again: a bundle of rewind-worthy punchlines, some cleverer-than-average crime stories (''I Miss My Love''), and a handful of tracks where he's smart or humble enough to stand aside and allow an enormous R&B hook to work its magic (''Makin Love,'' ''Last Time''). Better still, Loso's Way adds a brand-new element to Fab's proven formula via ''Stay,'' a genuinely sensitive meditation on becoming a father. B+
