Smash Rockwell is a studio album by American hip hop musician Casual. It was released on Hiero Imperium on September 6, 2005.
Andy Kellman of AllMusic gave the album 3.5 stars out of 5, writing, "The album is fairly uniform and consistently strong, despite the range of producers involved, and Casual is in improved form lyrically, nearly as sharp as he was throughout 1994's Fear Itself." He added, "All the talk of taking things back to the early '90s can become nearly as grating as relentless gun talk, but Casual is thankfully less irritable than he was on He Think He Raw." Dan Nishimoto of Stylus Magazine gave the album a grade of C+, stating, "When the grab-bag approach works, it certainly works to his advantage; from pimp strut to battlecat posturing, he gets to bake and taste the cake."
Spence D. of IGN included it on the "Top 26 Albums of 2005" list.[1]
