Record Label: Koch Records Featured Artists: Nas, Rick Ross, Akon , Plies, Kanye West, Bun B, Ace Hood, Rick Ross, Pitbull, Missy Elliot, Busta Rhymes, Trick Daddy, Flo Rida, Fat Joe, Lloyd, Fabolous, Trey Songz, Baby Cham, Birdman, Lil Scrappy, Shawty Lo, T-Pain Article by: Serge Fleury Ace Hood (which happens to be his artist) starts off the block party filled with colossal posse cuts with 'Standing On The Mountain Top' along with Pooh Bear. The only song on the album produced by DJ Khaled, he does a solid job at supplying the first artist he signed to Def Jam with a concrete introductory track in order to open the project up. ‘Go Hard’ is more of a battle between Kayne West and T-Pain to see who can use the synthesizer talk box better. Nonetheless, the Chi-town native fresh off his camera smashing fiasco at LAX Airport in Los Angeles decides to take more shots at President Bush before his official departure from office, “Here’s one thing I got to hear/I’m a tell you like George Bush told me/f*ck y’all n*ggas, I’m outta here.” The other artist who has the advantage of doing a whole song by his lone some is The Game, and he comes in on ‘Red Light.’ The Inkredibles recycle the ‘Trace Your Love’ sample by Joe Simon that 9th Wonder used to create ‘Alright’ on Memphis Bleek’s 534 and album and tailor it to The Game’s standards in order for him to go on his usual name-dropping rants, “I could go Hammer, but I’m not broke/picture me gettin’ a million dollars for every line I wrote/I’m dope, when Jay gonna do a song with me/I ain’t dope, I mean what the f*ck is wrong with me.” Miami’s elder statesman Trick Daddy comes in on ‘F*** The Other Side’ which also features the Drunk Ryders, but he takes a small part letting the Drunk Ryders bask in the majority of the spotlight. DJ Khaled completes his latest compilation by adding other stars like Pitbull, Birdman and Baby Cham on songs like ‘Blood Money,’ ‘Bullet,’ and ‘Defend Dade.’ |
