Album Notes Handsome Boy Modeling School: Dan The Automator, Prince Paul. Recording information: 2004.
Industry Reviews They assemble a galaxy of likely and unlikely vocalists, MCs and guest musicians, then let 'em flex within Handsome Boy Modeling School's quasi-satirical scheme. - 3 out of 5
3 stars out of 5 - [T]he Handsome Boy charm still wins through.
3 stars out of 5 - [A]nother loosely linked selection of skits, guests and bursts of brilliance.
[The] boys can still kick occasionally... - Grade: B

Included in Rolling Stone's Top 50 Records Of 2004 - [A]n album of ridiculously clever mash-ups of rock and hip-hop.
3 1/2 stars out of 5 - [T]he skits keep it realer than reality TV...
