4 Elements is the second album by American rap rock band Chronic Future on the Beyond Music label. It was released on August 22, 2000.
Reception A review in Billboard magazine praised the track "The Majik" from 4 Elements, saying it "is deeper than most other screamin' rap ditties".
Critic Kerry Lengel of The Arizona Republic gave the album 3 stars. The review suggested that the album "should prove competitive in the national rap-rock race, with polished production and a number of excellent tracks tailor-made for radio". However, Lengel wrote that artistically, the album "reveals that the young players still have some musical maturation to do", lamenting the lack of originality and commenting that the 14 tracks should have been pared down to 10.
The Montreal Gazette was more negative, calling the album a "Lightweight, pop-flavoured teenage metal-rap ripoff".
