![]() Who's Da Killer? $14.98 Alright, so they don't let me do half stars and I'd rather help than hurt the rating, especially given one of the wack hating reviews on here. This was the OG Tru on here: Master P Silkk C-Murder King George Big Ed Cali-g (billed here as Challi-G) They also have "Milk Man" on the cover but I don't know who that is. This CD is tricky since it has an OG release date of 1993 and sounds from that time period, but apparently it was released or re-released in 1998. Mine has a 1993 date on MM (Me & Mine) Records - King George's imprint. It has a tight cover - it's a cop looking at pictures of the Tru members trying to figure out who did the murder! The music is mostly tight on this one - it is 10 tracks, but one is shout outs and one is NL commercial. The rest of the tracks clock in at around 40 minutes. There's some real classic gangsta ish on here, "Who's Da Killa" is a dope song with all the click rapping on it. Basically this is a tight and raw CD and I recommend it at this price for that classic Cali funk. (No Limit was repping Richmond, Cali at the moment). ![]() Tru 2 da Game $18.98 I think this is a pretty good album... in fact the tape was the first No Limit album in my collection. Now the only reason why I gave the cd 4 stars was because it didn't have "Smoking Green" on it and that's my favorite song. If I would've looked at the track list b4 buying I wouldn't have bought the cd. The only reason why I bought the cd was because I was tired of rewinding the tape over and over just to listen to my favorite song. Anyway it's still a good album and I recommend it :) ![]() True $16.98 Lead by the Colonel of the tank or No Limit Records, Master P hand picked a group of soldiers for their third battle. The Real Untouchables album True catapulted their success with gangster tales and remaining true to the lifestyle. The "Intro" opens the album as if its a table of contents for this LP of money and murder. The "...187 dance..." of "Last Dance" is the result of double crossing the members. Hustling on the block drug dealing on "That's How We Break Bread" featuring C-Bo shows how their connection put food on the table. Riding around town six deep on "Mobbin Through My Hood" as the crew gives details of their environment. Searching for reasons to living a street life, "Living That Life" deals with the grim reality of the ghetto. The youngest member Silk gets the opportunity to shine on "Another Day Another Dollar" harmonizing the the hook with the perfect tune. Being prepared for the unexpected on "Watch Your ***" is a brief tale of being alert of thieves and car jackers. "Walk Like A Killer" showcases the mentality of a killer with style. Four of TRU's members tag team on "Anything Goes" over a funk groove instrumentation. The highlight of the LP "I'm Bout' It, Bout It" featuring Mia X eventually became an anthem for New Orleans and even the South. Produced by Craig with a bounce and the overwhelming high-pitched keys looped captured the region's sound and style. Track 12 features a sampled saxaphone smoothing out the graphic lyrical content as Mia X retaliated with a woman's perspective. C-Murder's calm delivery about a criminal's tool "Ain't No Glock" adds to the street content and its fatalities as a result as on "Would You Take A Bullet For Your Homie" and or "3 Strikes". The bounce of the sampled drum track with a mainstream chords gives "Keep It Jumping" another solid effort as "Keep It All Good" with the melodic vocals. True is simply a solid release with the perfect blend of performance and production. Giving you more for your money with this twenty track release it keep true to its roots of underground gangster subjects. A classic must have for No Limit fans! ![]() Tru: A Cookbook from the Legendary Chicago Restaurant $35.00 Great book good photos and great technical skills and also easy to read and use in the ktichen |
