Dude been hella busy in 1996 and 1997! U may think, it has to be rushed with all those albums all in a year. I have to say, this album rocks. Mannie Fresh has so much funk in his blood; his beats bang one after another with that southern fried flava with a rattling sophistication that many other producers drew upon in the late 1990's. "Livin' Legend" is a hot one, cementing BG as a legend in the rap game over a melodic, twangy G-Funk inspired beat. He may get flossy and hot headed like many, but his voice, flow, and delivery are interesting and unique. "I'm Try'n" shows BG trying to keep his head up, survive, and make his bank over a funky guitar ridden beat. "What U Want Do" gets it crunk with a neat rattling beat. Another G-Funk inspired scorcher is "Plan Went Sour" where BG hustles and gets his grind on over a tight twangy laid back beat. Hustler anthems are hardly new in 1997, but BG's song is tight with dope production! Make sure to check Chopper City from early 1997 and It's All On U Vol.1 from half a year after that and before this one. All came out with only a few months between them, but all are hella dope. 1 Luv Mannie Fresh, BG and the Cash Money crew for a dope 1997, a underrated, yet awesome year for underground hip-hop. ![]() Chopper City in the Ghetto $18.98 I listen to all kinds of music and all kinds of rap and I really will never be able to understand anybody who rates this less than a four. For my personal tastes it is the best CD of any kind of rap ever produced. If you are even remotely interested in rap you should buy this, and if you come to this page, you probably are. If you don't like it, listen more, and you will. The beats are amazing, seriously you can almost feel cash money hitting its peak during this album, the hooks are fine and BG's simple genius and smooth, new orleans slang is really addictive. It's also arranged well and there are not really any interludes,so the whole disc can be listened thru without switching songs. A true masterpiece from rap's GOAT. |
