Ace Hood's newly awaited album 'Ruthless' is sure to have any fan of Hip-Hop music searching the web for videos and ways to download it soon as it hits your ears.

Released on July 6, Hoods sophomore album is expected to be better than his previous album 'Gutta'. His record label, We The Best Music Group definitely knows how to make number one albums and has no plans of falling short on this one.

Being under the arms of hip-hop mogul and Def Jam South Executive DJ Khaled, Hood is blessed with the best beats and collaborates along side Hip-Hop and R&B superstars. The album starts out with a definite streetbanger "Get Money" featuring Rick Ross produced by The Inkredibles. Atlanta's own Ludacris makes an appearance on the radio popular "Born an O.G." which definitely falls into the gangster rap category.

This album features a variety of music for all listeners providing hard-hitting beats for the streets and the sweet songs for the ladies as well. Two gems on the album that are sure to make it to your iPod are "Overtime" featuring Akon and T-Pain, as well as the song "Champion" featuring Jazmine Sullivan and Rick Ross. Both songs provide the listener with a feeling of energy and could be the best background music for a person working out or at work.

The album still maintains its positive vibe delivering R&B hits like "Mine" featuring The Dream, "Love Somebody" featuring Jeremih and "Wifey Material" featuring Lloyd. The album ends with a sort of classical feeling with the song "Make a Toast" in which Ace expresses all the hard-ship he's gone through and gives thanks to all the people that made his dream come true.
