Disappointed.......2007-07-29

As everyone knows (or should know), Chuck Brown is the Godfather of go-go. But unlike "I Need Money" and "Bustin' Loose", this CD seems too slick and overproduced. It's more like a tribute than something with an edge. P.S. Anyone in search of more go-go should check out the Liaison Records catalog.

Wind Me Up, Chuck!.......2007-07-16

Chuck Brown is a Washington, DC institution and our "National Treasure!" This man started "Go-Go!" He is 70+ years old and still manages to stay current with what is happening on the music scene today. For those who don't know what "Go-Go" is, it is a genre of music (a sort of sub-genre of funk music) that originated Derniere issue

Une réussite qui se confirme!
Le tome 4 de cette série marque un tournant dans la série : de la recherche du frère de Vlad, on se dirige vers les dérives des manipulations génétiques. Et c’est une réussite, on sort de la bd classique avec un héros traqué par des bandes adverses…pour parvenir à un album riche a plusieurs degrés : psychologie des personnages mieux travaillée, réflexion intéressante sur les questions éthiques…
Malgré un récit quelquefois un peu confus, ce quatrième tome est captivant, et le trait de Griffo est parfait, et colle parfaitement au scénario. Vivement le tome 5 !

Dan Zanes, lead singer of the 1980s roots-rock band the Del Fuegos, didn't need to enlist the high-profile help of pals Sheryl Crow and Suzanne Vega to produce a crowd-pleasing kids' record, but he got it anyway. On Rocket Ship Beach, where traditional tunes such as "Polly Wolly Doodle" (with Crow) and "Erie Canal" (with Vega) mingle in loosey-goosey, just-for-the-fun-of-it fashion with originals such as the plucky "All My Friends Live in the Woods" (written by Bad Company buddy Simon Kirke), Zanes exhibits the same plugged-in exuberance that gave his former band its unpredictable zing. Besides the no-amateurs instrumentation, which includes Zanes on guitar, lap steel, banjo-mandolin, and studiophone, and G.E. Smith on banjo-mandolin and guitar as part of a kickin' string band that performs the classic "King Kong Kitchie," plus a cluster of others, what stands out most about this 17-track funfest is its draw-you-in friendliness. Pitching in with the pros (who also include dancehall rapper Rankin' Don--he delivers the gruff stuff on "Father Goose" and "Sunny Side of the Street") are family friends such as the gang of West Indian babysitters turned vocal group the Sandy Girls, who give it up to impressive, get-you-boogying effect on "Emmanuel Road," and a kindergarten class that contributes, adorably, to "Sidewalks of New York." All told, this is way hipper than most kids' records and it also razzle-dazzles with its packaging--Rocket Ship Beach arrives in a chunky, colorful board-book illustrated with sweet, fantasy-fueled beachside scenes by banjo player and Zanes's brother-in-law, Donald Saaf. --Tammy La Gorce

Album Description

music is in the air. it's alive and it's here for everyone. if you can play an old song, you can write a new song. make it a family parade, all around the kitchen cock-a-doodle-doodle-doo. or how about a family band? on the front steps, in the back yard, in the park, on the sidewalk, in the basement. if you can brush your teeth, you can play tamborine. if you can tell a joke, you can sing.

festival five records is the sound of a neighborhood band on the front stoop playing tunes after dinner for a family dance. festival five records is the sound of a group of 9 and 10 year olds singing a sixty year old broadway song in the basement of a 150 year old row house. it's the sound of a 40-year-old dad on a blue porch singing a 400 year old story song about a frog that marries a mouse. when you feel that music in the air, try to catch as much as possible.

Customer Reviews:

It's great!.......2007-01-27

I'm a first-time Mom who was looking for a CD both my daughter and I could enjoy. We rec'd this CD at Christmas along with "Buzz Buzz" by Laurie Berkner. This one is my personal favorite. I think I enjoy it as much, if not more than my daughter (who is 1). The songs are addicting and I, like a previous reviewer, find myself singing/humming them even when my daughter is not around. Polly Wolly Doodle and King Kong Kitchie are fabulous! I highly recommend giving this CD a spin. I'm sure my daughter will love it even more when she gets a little older.

Honestly, this CD sucks.......2007-01-18

I was excited to receive this CD because of its great reviews. Once I received it however, I found it barely listenable. My toddler daughter looked and me and said "Off!Off!" and we took it off the CD player after only 10 minutes.

People can make of Raffi all they want, but at least his music is tolerable!

Don't waste your money on this lemon of a CD.

What an awesome CD!!!.......2006-12-20

My 2 year old and 1 year old think this CD ROCKS! My son will point to the CD player and cry and whine until I turn it on. From song one they both wiggle, giggle and dance all over. The songs are very folksy, upbeat, and easy to groove too. Get this CD and watch your kids get jiggy wit' it!

rocket ship beach review.......2006-11-10

Rocket Ship Beach was my introduction to Dan Zanes. I have a new son and I was searching for some music we could both enjoy. I found this and thought I would give it a shot. The cd is wonderful. The music is addicting and I find myself driving down the road singing to myself....without my son in the car! Polly Wolly Doodle, the first track, is one of my favorites (and not because I am a Sheryl Crow fan). Another beautiful song is "Hello". This cd is upbeat, fun and yet different from some more typical childrens music. My son really enjoys the different sounds and rhythms on the cd. The cd has a few little introductions where you can hear children, a phone ringing, ect. This cd is sure to put you in a good mood. I highly recommend it! I am actually waiting for another Dan Zanes cd to arrive I liked it so much.

we all love it.......2006-08-05

The whole family can enjoy this music, unlike many of the other kid's music that is so lame.

Inu-Yasha: l'histoire passionante des demons
Inu Yasha est un des mangas le plus populaire, et je peut y voir pourquoi. Quand Kagome tombe dans le puit magique, deja les dessins m'a pris par les cheveux et m'a forcee avec elle au Senjoku Jidai, a l'epoque d'Inu Yasha. Ce ci est un des mangas le plus populaires de Rumiko Takahashi, et aussi une histoire qui est vraiment bien dessinee avec des personnages reele et fascinant. Je recommande Inu-Yasha a tous les fans de manga.
Le quatrieme livre n'est pas tres interessant mais il y a beaucoup dedans qui aide l'histoire...et aussi, il y a InuYasha en forme humaine! Meme ca tout seul est une bonne raison d'acheter ce livre. Vive InuYasha!

ringtone88.com Iggy was going for. The lyrics are the most unattractive thing ever but the bands overall performance makes the song very sexy. Very slow, and slimy. This song is reminicent of 'Loose' from the Fun House album. Once again guitar, guitar, guitar. Asheton is one of the most underrated and overlooked guitar players in history. The title track 'Raw Power' may be the best song on the album, maybe thats why they decided to name the album after it. Great lyrics, and very catchy. Once again the piano is great. Not very complicated or fancy or anything but it fits the song perfectly. The Stooges are known for using instruments in songs that you wouldnt normaly expect to hear them in. But when they do it works somehow. 'I Need Somebody' is a personal favorite. Nice and slow blues number with mostly acoustic guitars. Very cool, very Velvet Underground/Lou Reed esq. Easily one of the top three songs the band ever recorded. Okay, 'Shake Appeal' is without a doubt the best song the band ever made in my opinion. Phenominal. Amazing guitar riff, lyrics, delivery, the entire package is great. This song best describes The Stooges and what they stood for. If you were to only hear one Iggy Pop And The Stooges song in your life, 'Shake Appeal' would be the one to hear. Fantastic is all you can say about it. 'Death Trip' is a lot like the title track 'Raw Power.' It is a great way to end the album because it is a great song but nothing about really sets it apart from the rest of the album other then the extended guitar solo and that it is the last song on the album.

If you were to own one punk album in your life or even just hear one, I must say this is the one to hear or own. It is the best, and the one that inspired almost every punk band ever. Don't let the shoddy production shy you away, the music overcomes that, and now the remastered version despite what purists may say it does sound better and really inhances the albums overall quality. Raw Power is one of those rare moments in rock n' roll history that shouldn't be missed or past up by anyone. This was the last Stooges album for almost thirty years and boy did they go out with a bang. Brilliant!

RAW POWER to the people .......2007-02-16

The title says it all. This is the way Rock n' Roll was meant to be: fast, sexy, hot, a little scary, fun, catchy, challenging, and a** scorching. RAW POWER is one of the best records for Rock lovers, but it's not for the weak kneed, lily-livered, or Punk pretenders. RAW POWER was Kurt Cobain's favorite record and is certainly THE STOOGES most musical effort. Despite RAW POWER's thin and not-so-greatly recorded sound, this is one of the most powerful and influential records in Rock. Re-mastered by Iggy Pop himself, this release has suffered a lot of criticism. I don't really care; it's what we've got to listen to, and the band was great and these performances monumental. I just want to listen to the music and I love it, imperfect as it may be. To the casual listener, the record's equal parts accessible and off-putting. RAW POWER might be my own personal favorite STOOGES album (check out FUN HOUSE, though, if at all interested in this band). But of their three albums, there is not a less than superb one. Iggy Pop brings a finesse to this record and production value that is not apparent on the first two STOOGES albums, even if THE STOOGES had to dissolve, reform under Columbia (and be promptly dropped by that label) to make it happen. I love the celeste on "Penetration," the sure fire delivery of "Search and Destroy," the uncompromising sexiness of "Shake Appeal," and Iggy himself has specified that the epic "Death Trip" was about his expectation that this record would fail, yet once again the record has that ironic insight into the future influence of THE STOOGES few, but extremely important, recordings, as he sings "...we're going down in history..."

Why the Hype?.......2007-01-10

I heard "I Need Somebody" and gave this a try. I don't dig the "in the red" sound they were going for. To be honest, I don't like most of the songs either. We can all appreciate their influence on what we jam too now, but I just couldn't get into this one. Much respect, no rotation.

STAY AWAY BECAUSE IT IS NOT A QUALITY PRODUCT.......2007-01-08

This is garbage because of one thing ... the production and mix are truly awful. It sounds like you are listening to this through a transister radio, underwater and 100 yards away. It was purposely recorded that way.

This is 3 chord rock and there is nothing special about them. With other punk/garage bands, you heard the same chord progressions and time signatures infinite times but with better recordings.

I like some of Iggy Pop's material but I do not get it with this one. I know that this is regarded as a classic by a lot of critics I just don't get it.

You should stay away because I cannot imagine anybody having repeated listenings of this.

On her second full-length album, Lindsay Lohan tries to leave her Disney image behind for good. And what better way to do it than by starting off with the stark "Confessions of a Broken Heart (Daughter to Father)," in which the singer wrestles with her stormy relationship with her felonious father? Lohan Sr. also is the object of the tortured "My Innocence" (as in, Dad, you took it away.) But the best tracks here are the ones on which Lohan Jr. spares us the angsty therapy and delivers tuneful pop-rock. Sure, the kind of rousing mega-chorus used on "Black Hole" has already been heard--to greater effect--in Kelly Clarkson's "Since U Been Gone," but it's still nifty. Elsewhere, "A Little More Personal" begins with Lohan talking about how talking at the start of a song is "rad," but then it turns into a very Cars-like tune--and it's hard to think of a catchier band than the Cars. No wonder it all sounds so impressively slick: For this transitional album, Lohan has surrounded herself with a team of pros--Kara DioGuardi (who's also written for Lohan rivals Ashlee Simpson and Hilary Duff, and coauthored 9 of the 12 songs here), power-popster Butch Walker, and former Evanescence guitarist Ben Moody. The first two also put their producing stamp on a cover of Cheap Trick's "I Want You to Want Me" that's even more upbeat than the original, while Moody applied his tech skills on the other cover, Stevie Nicks' "Edge of Seventeen." Moody particularly shines on "Fastlane," however, a super-catchy number that's one of four for which Lohan gets a songwriting credit. Has she grown up? Maybe not entirely yet, but Lohan is showing the promise of an honorable mainstream career. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

J'avais entendu parlé de ce manga, au début, ouais bof je préférais les truc gores et puis j'ai quand même acheté le tome 1 et 2! Je les ai dévoré! je ne m'attendais pas a une histoire aussi drole! Et pourtant si triste... Je ne vois aucun défauts! Ce manga est tout simplement génial!

Un manga exceptionnel!
J'ai trouve ce manga par hasard et j'avoue que j'ai ete charmee tout de suite! C'est un compte des fees moderne, avec des personnages attachants que vous allez decouvrir peu a peu. C'est une histoire pleine d'emotions et d'humour. Bon ... ca ne vaut pas la peine de vous en parler pour longtemps! C'est un manga a decouvrir! Si vous etes du genre romantique, c'est votre truc!
Pour un moment de détente
Fruits Basket est un tres bon shojo: les personnages sont attachants, l'histoire est prenante (selon moi) et vous passerez un tres bon moment à le lire! Mais ne souhaitez pas trouver dans ce livre des scenes de combats à tt bout de champs comme dans certain autre manga (a part le comportement orageux de certain personnage comme Kyou face a Yuki. Mais entre chat et souris que voulez-vous...). Au fil de la lecture, vous découvrirez de nouveaux personnages de la famille Sohma ainsi que leurs histoires plutôt sombre. Vous en aimerez certain et en detesterez d'autres...
Il est tout de mm important de citer que certain passage du manga sont tres drôle !
Pour moi, Fruits Basket est un tres bon manga, de préférence pour fille, et j'espere que vous passerez un aussi bon moment que moi quand vous le lirez.

ringtone88.com s who've followed in his footsteps - - knowingly and unknowingly. And now, finally a retrospective that covers his entire career, from his ultra funky "Kool and The Gang"ish disco/hard core funk roots in the mid-70s (when as far as the rest of the world is concerned he had his "one hit wonder" Bustin' Loose even though the best was yet to come) - - all the way up to current times, where as "The Godfather of Go Go" he comfortably holds court, guitar in hand - - and even rappin' and out rappin' fans and follows barely a third of his age - - often backed by the P-Funk horns, and a who's who of Jazz, funk, go go players... the truth is Chuck Brown is a style, genre and persona all unto himself - - "good people" yet "wickedly funky"...

Though DC's go go music (which Chuck Brown created) never caught on like it should have, the truth is that if you listen to this CD and don't come out convinced that Chuck Brown epitomized the words "legend", "style" and "funkyness" -- you ain't nothing...

As an added bonus, to fans of Chuck's more "musical elements", this CD is proabably his most consistantly engineered and best packaged representation to date... you really get to hear his various bands over the years work out, and have to be amazed how he's always at the helm gushing with his distinct trademarks - - the non-stop beats, those slick and funky guitar lines, the ever popping bass and congas and his funky emcee-ing and stage bands that are always funner than fun and tighter than tight.

Though Chuck can and does travel the year, it is true that he's under-appreciated... and its ashame because I truly believe that if everyone in the world knew more about him music worldwide would be 100 times as good !

On Sea Music, former Del Fuegos frontman turned kid's music songster Dan Zanes performs a set of old sea shanties in a rough-hewn but charming manner. He takes songs that have been worn smooth from constant use, artfully scuffs them up, and restores them to their former "ragged but right" glory. His performance of "Shenandoah," for example, features some fine Leadbelly-style 12-string guitar picking and an anguished vocal that almost erases the memory of the polite, formal choral arrangements that usually smother the song. And his "Sloop John B" sails along on jaunty banjos and mandolins rather than the slick harmonies of the Beach Boys' version. These shanties were originally created by sailors as work songs, and consequently they have choruses that are perfect for singing along. Zanes is joined on many tracks by an enthusiastic chorus of kids who are obviously having a wonderful time belting out the sometimes salty lyrics. As with all of Zanes's recordings for children, adults are likely to find themselves listening to this wonderful music even when the kids aren't underfoot. --Michael John Simmons

On any list of great "kids" CDs you will love too........2007-03-28

My personal favorite of DZ's "kids" records.

This one *is* great for sing-alongs with the kids, but is a fine old timey record of sea songs that can be enjoyed by anyone. Loose-limbed versions of "Shenendoah", "Sloop John B" and "Cape Cod Girls" are fine and fun.

"Strike The Bell", "Blow Ye Winds", "Leaving of Liverpool" and others are fun sing-alongs as well as good history lessons. My 3.5 year-old and I enjoy this record equally.

It's particularly nice that Zanes' website has the lyrics AND chords -- really helps extend the listening and playing pleasure. I also appreciate that DZ doesn't dumb down the music for kids at all -- you get a real feel of the folk tradition of handmade music here.

Disappointing.......2006-06-01

I like anything to do with the sea and I bought this CD on the strength of the glowing reviews. Having lived in a port city in England that hosts an annual Sea Shanty festival, I was fortunate to hear some of the best shanty singers around. I had high expectations for Dan Zales and was sorely let down. The music is basic and unpolished, which should be a good thing. Shanties are supposed to be raw, gutsy. But the quality of the music here is downright amateurish -- merely a sing-a-long with the children in the kitchen. I wanted more for my money.

ringtone88.com wrote most of the songs, except the final song, `Ever Fallen in Love' by Peter Shelley, and `It's OK (It's Alright)' by David Steele-Roland Gift-Andrew Cox.

The symbol for `She Drives Me Crazy' might be a man hitting himself in the head with a book. "Everything I do is wrong" summarizes the obsessed man who can't help himself. The same symbol follows the name of David Z after four other symbols. He gets a credit for co-production and engineer for a total of three songs. Steele/Cox/Gift get credit for production on seven other songs, but the symbols are not in the same order as the list of the ten songs on the album. Gavin Wright gets credit for strings and Dave Anderson for remix on `As Hard as it Is.' Music is a complicated business for groups that get to be this good, and somebody has to keep track of who does what. I probably never noticed before.

Fine Young Cannibals, a.k.a. the two-hit wonders of 1988.......2003-07-18

The minor complaints would be that "The Raw & the cooked" has only ten songs and about 35 minutes worth of music. The bigger complain would be that the Fine Young Cannibals never put out another album as good as this 1988 effort which had its first two tracks, "She Drives Me Crazy" and "Good Thing," hit #1 on the Billboard Pop chart. FYC consisted of sing Roland Gift with a pair of former Beat members, guitarist Andy Cox and David Steele on keyboards/bass. Pegging the songs on this album into even a couple of niches is difficult because you will hear bits of everything from Motown and R&B from the past to punk and disco from the "present" in these ten songs, all fused together in a distinctive and enjoyable sound. Credit must be given to producer David Z, who had worked with Prince, Billy Idol, and others out of Minneapolis. Most of the songs were released as singles in the U.K.

Besides the first two cuts, the torch song "I'm Not the Man I Used to Be" keeps the party going on this album. But the most memorable track remains "She Drives Me Crazy," which has one of the most instantly identifiable openings of the decade and which was used to great effect in an episode of "thirtysomething" when Elliott fantasizes about what Nancy is doing after their divorce. I understand that the snare drum bit from that song is one of the most frequently sampled sounds in music history. Makes sense to me.

"The Raw & the Cooked" sold over 2 million copies and made it to the top of the album charts as well. When people talk about one hit wonders they are talking about artists where you want to have their big song but not their album. That is most certainly not the case with the Fine Young Cannibals. The only reason not to pick up this album would be because you also like some of FYC's earlier work (they only put out two albums) and you end up going with their hits collection "Finest," which has the six singles from this album.

Eat It Up!.......2002-02-28

One of the most talented groups of the eighties, FYC made only a few albums. This 1988 effort is a must, with highly original compositions similar in feeling to the great Arthur Lee and Love. Almost every song is great (although the first half is better), both for listening or dancing, particularly "She Drives Me Crazy," "Good Thing," "I'm Not the Man I Used to Be," and "Tell Me What." The emotional vocals, tight playing, and R&B/reggae beat make these completely infectious. Roland Gift has the restrained vocal passion of a Sam Cooke. Andy Cox's plucking guitar notes, superbly comped by David Steele on keyboards and some great percussive sounds, adds a unique sound to Gift's emotional vocal on "I'm Not the Man I Used To Be." On the best songs, the production is richly textured yet sparse (e.g. Al Green). For example, Steele adds some keyboard accents on "I'm Not Satisfied" then pulls off a cooking organ solo. The song, like much of the album, is imbued with R & B, reggae, funky church sounds, and James Brown passion.

"Tell Me Why" is a more mellow ska, with some nice 50's style harmonies. Track 6, "Don't Look Back," somewhat misses... it lacks the soulful hooks of the other songs but has an early 60's vocal sound and breaks into a good power guitar solo for about 10 seconds at the 2-minute mark). Overall, it's strangely likeable, as if Arthur Lee did country/Western.

"It's OK (It's Alright)" breaks into a great chorus despite it's somewhat cloying disco groove. Still, the tight work and rhythm section are impeccable and elevate the song...and again, this is great dance music! "Don't Let It Get You Down" has some annoying sound-effects over a great Prince-like falsetto by Gift. There's also a fine trumpet sound that gets into a good groove. Track 9 has a deep churchy sound (due largely to the organ), a great guitar twangling hook. Like many of their songs, it has the deep feeling of a prayer, and the yearning emotion of the best Rhythm and blues. Excellent vocals, but, towards the end of the song the overly dramatic horns and the singing veer towards self-parody (but I can imagine Elvis doing something fun with this). The last song has more strumming guitar and a big drum sound on the beat: It's a little like Talking Heads in its approach and sound, and has a taste of funk guitar.

The album fades just a bit after it's initial blast, but this is not enough to dampen my enthusiasm. Not many groups can match FYC for musical and emotional power, originality, and synthesis of R &B and reggae. It's probably one of the top 25 albums of the 1980's. Very highly recommended!

I love them........2002-01-26

Their music is so good. I have so many memories of them from my childhood. I used to love the video "She Drives Me Crazy" every time it came on MTV in the late 80's/early 90's. I remember VH1 used to play "She Drives Me Crazy" and "Good Thing" for years. They wouldn't let up and I loved that. This music is so nostaglic for me. They don't make it like this anymore. I'm so glad they put these songs out!

Two amazing stars.......2007-03-18

Briefly, these are two amazing Broadway stars at their best. And they are pretty funny at moments too. I especially loved the story about their costume problems in Side Show. If you love the other work Em and Al have done, this will certainly be a vital part of your musical theater collection.

A Great Live Concert Recording.......2007-03-18

Two glorious voices heard together again. The choice of material is terrific and the banter between these Broadway divas is excellent. If one did not see them in "Side Show," the references to this musical may be lost on the listener. I think this is a wonderful recording.

Good Disc.......2007-02-24

Some great performances by these two ladies throughout this two-disc set. Ultimately a few numbers are disappointing only because Alice Ripley sing Le Monde extraordinaire de Corto Maltese

ringtone88.com e all No Limit albums of the time), Slim delivers 20 songs for you. Guests are on 15 of the 20 songs so you don't get a ton of Slim. 3 songs I skip, 4-7 are ok, the rest are good - a few being real good. Production is nice like most of the No Limit albums that the Beats By the Pound Crew do. Carlos Stephens and KLC each do 6 songs, Craig B does 4 songs, Mo B Dick & O'Dell each do 2 songs and DJ Darryl does 1 song.

A few notches above the average for No Limit.......2007-01-16

No Limit albums are like baseball cards. They're mostly interchangeable, but once you buy your first, a funny urge to collect them all wells up in the back of your skull. Of course, music as pure product has it's own issues. I wouldn't bother reviewing most of the No Limit output from the late nineties, simply because I doubt I could string enough words together to make it worthwhile. "Give It To 'Em Raw" stands a bit above it's peers. Sure, Beats By The Pound handles full album production, and yes, the booklet is filled with advertisements for upcoming discs. It has a standard Pen & Pixel cover, and the usual filler that clogged all rap albums at the time is present. The difference is Soulja Slim buried some gems here amongst the rubble, and even if Southern rap doesn't appeal to you, this is one record from below the Mason-Dixon Line that might be worth a spin or two.

"You Got It (II)" has those really whiny synths that Dr. Dre used to great effect on "Efil4Zaggin". Now, BBTP isn't Dre by any stretch, but they manage to conjure the same hazy menace. In fact, the thickness of Slim's accent, the fact that most of us Yanks won't be able to catch every word he says, makes it all the more unsettling. Another standout is "Anything", with Slim and Mia X trading sex rhymes over a dark bass-and-synth driven beat. "Law Brekaz" is downright claustrophobic, and Slim's paranoia about being robbed or killed is so palpable it could ride shogtun with "My Mind's Playing Tricks on Me". Sadly, paranoia is occasionally justified, as Slim was murdered just a few years after "Give It To 'Em Raw" dropped. It's hard to keep that out of your mind even on the lighter tracks, like the Parliament derivative "No Limit Party". No less than sixteen emcees (and that's being kind to some of these cats) tear through eight bars apiece in about five minutes. Works perfect as a closer.

There is a lot of midi-sounding junk. Most of the lyrics outside the highlighted tracks tend toward the "streets are dangerous/stay strapped/dealing/using/I'm negative because of my screwed up childhood" variety. Public Enemy or Main Source this isn't. However, I'd gladly take negative mental baggage over mindless boasting of material goods (Baby, I'm looking atchoo) any day. $20 bucks for a used disc is ridiculous, so try rooting around at your friendly neighborhood flea markets. RIP Soulja Slim. Thanks for the music.

one of best no limit cds.......2005-10-17

one of the tighter no limit cds from its era, soulja slim was one of the best rappers master p ever signed up there with c murder,silkk,mac,and mr.serv on,this cd is one to pick up, check out the following songs, after you listen to these i think you either will agree, or buy the album. 1.from what i was told, 2.street life,7.head buster,8.me and my cousin,12.imagine,14.wootay,18.hustlin is a habit,20. n.l. party, street life is the best song on the cd though

i think this one soulja slim's best albums the beats are great and the lyrics are great if you a soulja fan you should pick up this album R.I.P soulja slim a.k.a. James Tapp

A Diamond in the Ruff.......2004-12-08

Master P didn't know who he had at the time until it was to late for P to sign him to the label in 01'. I knew of Soulja before this album came out and so naturally I had to get this album. Soulja's songs were different from the No Limit roster it wasn't the same i'm a soulja line, he translated the streets in real time talk and didn't hold nothing back. When C-Murder and Mac appeared on this album it was bananas. You could have had an instant group.
