After years behind the scenes in the music business, Lil Jon (along with his Eastside Boys, Lil Bo and Big Sam) exploded in late 2002 with his special brand of "crunk," booming bass-fueled hip-hop with the controlled fury of hardcore punk or metal. Kings Of Crunk remained near the top of the Billboard charts through 2003, and the lighthearted, raucous party anthem "Get Low" was an unavoidable classic. Lil Jon's affable trademark shouts popped up on hit single after hit single, and those one-word chants even fueled one of the most beloved sketches on the wildly popular comedy series Chappelle's Show. For the official follow-up, Lil Jon & the Eastside Boys return in 2004 with Crunk Juice, picking up right where Kings Of Crunk left off, with even more ferocity. After a metal-sampling intro title track, the trio lets loose with the brutal "Get Crunk," barely taking a breath until the slightly slowed-down "Da Blow." While much of the record is hard as nails, Lil Jon finds some time for laid-back moments in collaborations with Usher and Ludacris on "Lovers and Friends" and with R. Kelly and Ludacris (again) on "In Da Club," both hilariously introduced by Chris Rock. Crunk Juice closes on the incredible all-star power of the sinister "Grand Finale," bringing East Coast (Nas, Fat Joe) and West Coast (Ice Cube) together in the Dirty South, a fitting ending to a relentlessly fun record. Method. 2005.

Named after the thriving rap subgenre he popularized, Lil' Jon's Crunk Juice makes no claims to be anything but XXX-rated, hip-hop mosh pit music. Three 6 Mafia's crunked-out compositions may predate Lil' Jon's, but Jon's unique production methods continue to dazzle on cuts like "What U Gon' Do," where protégé Lil Scrappy's vocals create jarring audio effects. The trademark futuristic blend of Miami bass, Jamaican dub, electronica, and punk--littered with call-and-response chants--is in full force on "Crunk Juice," "Get Crunk," and "Da Blow." More impressively, he's broadened his crunk palette to include a brilliant rocked-out Rick Rubin collaboration, along with more conventional R&B tunes featuring Usher and R. Kelly--he even looks to D.C.-style go-go beats for inspiration on "Aww Skeet Skeet." The vulgar yet hilarious Chris Rock comedy cameos help make this album a winner, even if it's intentionally zany and lyrically vacuous. --Dalton HigginsCustomer Reviews:

What the hell is this?.......2007-05-31
A Perspective Of An Expert Butcherer.......2007-03-17
1. Voice - Just how can that guy's senseless yelling be tolerated? All this guy does is yell. He doesn't even rap. It's just thoughtless, obnoxious "YAY-YAH" over and over (along with some other stuff). I bet his music couldn't even be considered rap if it weren't for all those guest musicians.
2. Plagiarism - The name "Lil Jon" originated from the Robin Hood tale. It may have a slightly different spelling, but it's just bad enough that he could disgrace history like that. He also uses samples from copyrighted songs and completely butchers the purpose and meaning of that song. I mean, is mixing Slayer's "Raining Blood" intro and Lil Jon's abysmal bellowing necessary? Not at all.
3. "Crunk" - This is also meant to be a plagiarism issue as well, as Dirty South rappers were the first one to coin that phrase. However, Lil Jon wants to take all the credit by taking the word and overusing it over and over so that he seems to be the inventor of that word. Sorry, Jon Smith, but you do not possess credit for creating that word. You just made it into a derivative word that people say, yet they probably have no clue what it means (it means to get drunk and baked).
4. Image - Golden grills make you look like some person who cares less about his dental hygeine. Do you ever remove your sunglasses? And your crunk juice is just a marketing scam.
By all means, avoid this annoying, meaningless, plagiarized trash. Rap isn't (mostly wasn't) just like that way, but thanks to your plague, you have given a once tolerable music genre a bad name.

Album Description
From the hard crunk, club bangin' of Lil Jon & The East Side Boyz's "What U Gon' Do" feat. Lil Scrappy to the #1 r&b hit, "Lovers And Friends" feat. Usher and Ludacris, to "In Da Club" feat. R Kelly & Ludacris (one mo' time), Lil Jon & his crew brought their Hot 'Lanta sound to all of America & the whole wide world in 2004-2005. "Crunk Juice" was an instant classic, selling 2 1/2 million copies in the U.S. alone. And now it's time for some new flava yet again. Remixmaster Michael "5000" Watts has chopped & screwed "Crunk Juice" for The Swisha House! Are you ready for a taste?Customer Reviews:
review from Synthesis.......2005-09-28
Houston's DJ Screw (R.I.P.) founded the style of slowing down records (screwing), and took liberties with them on mix tapes (chopping). Remember when a walkman died and the music slowed down? Or when a discman skipped? Such Frankensteinian changes abound on these albums. Michael "5000" Watts of Swishahouse Records is credited with mainstreaming the sound; he mixes the two discs. The metamorphosis is profound, in ways good and bad. Still attention-getting when played at high volume, the sound is less musical but more...intriguing? It's hard to get crunk with Lil Jon sounding like he's on Promethazine; slowed down, E-40 sounds like just another E-40 imitator; and 8-Ball really does sound "high as a giraffe." The Twins sound more like monsters than rappers; their women offering sexual advice sound like transvestites and Busta Rhymes isn't recognizable.
On the other hand, the repetitious cutting of the records reinforces favorite lines, like Usher's heartfelt moans on Lil Jon's "Lovers and Friends" and Ying Yang's straightforward misogyny on "I Hate Hoes." Incredible audio experiences, but certainly not for everyone.

I would've given it 0 stars but it wouldn't let me........2005-07-19
Is this an album or a compilation?.......2005-06-29
Whatever the case, Crunk Juice isn't a terrible album. But the reason I titled my review the way I did is because there are guest stars on damn near every track, and in most cases Lil Jon has the shortest verse. The only guest-free track is the Rick Rubin-produced "Don't F With Me" (and to the reviewers that were mad that it uses the music from Slayer's "Raining Blood", it's a sample; get over it). But I'm really not feeling the repeat-after-me vibe of that song. By the way, the track listing says the song is called "Don't F With Me", but the liner notes (not to mention the song) say "Stop F'n Wit Me". Which is it?
There ARE some good songs on here though, like "Get Crunk", "What U Gon' Do" and especially the last two tracks, "Stick That Thang Out (Skeezer)" and "Grand Finale". Ice Cube appears on the latter, and although he gave a nice performance earlier on the album in "Real N Phone Call", here it's not the same. I mean, his verse starts out fine, but as I listened on I started to wonder what the hell he was talking about. But that's not too bad because Jon, Nas, T.I. and Bun-B handle the rest of the song pretty well.
Since Jon and Ludacris helped Usher storm the charts with "Yeah" last year, it looks like Usher and Luda return the favor with the smooth "Lovers and Friends". The song itself isn't bad (well, actually, Luda's verse is kinda generic); the problem is that it just doesn't fit on an album full of loud crunk songs. To be honest, it sounds like it belongs on Usher's album. The same can be said about the song that follows, "One Night Stand".
As much as I love Chris Rock, I'm inclined to agree with the other reviewers that said that his skits were pointless. And the "Bo Hagon's Phone Call" skit is pointless too, although the ending was a little funny. Speaking of pointless, that can also be said about the obligatory screwed song, "Da Blow" (why would you purposely have Gangsta Boo on your album?). And "Aww Skeet Skeet" was a little too weird for me. But worse than that is when R. Kelly shows up for "In Da Club", which sounds like a watered-down version of "Get Low". And Kells is rapping again, too (*sigh*).
There is also a bonus remix CD, but at that point I felt I'd had enough because the regular album is already 75+ minutes long. There are two new versions of each "What U Gon' Do" and "Real N Roll Call" (now shortened to just "Roll Call"). The first two mixes are decent, but as far as the Bad Brains remix of "Roll Call"; note to Lil Jon: rock remixes don't work for everyone. And both Chris Rock and Bo Hagon's respective skits are unnecessary.
Anyone that liked Lil Jon's previous offerings should have no problem with this album, but the rest of the world might want to think a bit before having a taste of this crunk juice.

Crunk Juice
ProductGroup: Music Binding: Audio CD ASIN: B000A2H0A6 Release Date: 2005-04-26 |
Album Description
After years behind the scenes in the music business, Lil Jon (along with his Eastside Boys, Lil Bo and Big Sam) exploded in late 2002 with his special brand of "crunk," booming bass-fueled hip-hop with the controlled fury of hardcore punk or metal. Kings Of Crunk remained near the top of the Billboard charts through 2003, and the lighthearted, raucous party anthem "Get Low" was an unavoidable classic. Lil Jon's affable trademark shouts popped up on hit single after hit single, and those one-word chants even fueled one of the most beloved sketches on the wildly popular comedy series Chappelle's Show. For the official follow-up, Lil Jon & the Eastside Boys return in 2004 with Crunk Juice, picking up right where Kings Of Crunk left off, with even more ferocity. After a metal-sampling intro title track, the trio lets loose with the brutal "Get Crunk," barely taking a breath until the slightly slowed-down "Da Blow." While much of the record is hard as nails, Lil Jon finds some time for laid-back moments in collaborations with Usher and Ludacris on "Lovers and Friends" and with R. Kelly and Ludacris (again) on "In Da Club," both hilariously introduced by Chris Rock. Crunk Juice closes on the incredible all-star power of the sinister "Grand Finale," bringing East Coast (Nas, Fat Joe) and West Coast (Ice Cube) together in the Dirty South, a fitting ending to a relentlessly fun record.
