Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
With the No Limit and Cash Money crews having permanently seared the once-ignored Deep South into the hip-hop map, Nelly arrives to make a mark for the heretofore uncelebrated St Louis scene. After outlining the rules of the game from lifestyle (gats, grass and sex) to wardrobe (he cuffs his jeans like Beaver Cleaver), the rapper offers scenario after scenario depicting the gangsta world as one big party; he and his crew seem much more interested in fellatio than shoot-outs. The title single is the clear standout with its low-rider groove, but the midtempo R&B-flavoured flows of "Utha Side", "Greed, Hate & Envy", and "Steal Da Show" are also seductive. --Rickey Wright

Of all the albums I own - this one has to be my favourite. All the songs are excellent with a good rhythm and vibe. Nelly is just telling it like it is - and this reflects in the lyrics in all his songs. He is trying to get St Louis recognised, and with an album as good as this he shouldn't have any problem. I find this album easier to listen to than other rap/hip hop CDs - and every track is individual. My personal favourite is E.I - but all the rest are just as good. infact it was hard to choose just one favourite. So if you want to listen to some decent music - choose this album!

I think that this album is fantastic! It isn't as hardcore as some other hip hop artists such as Dr Dre or Snoop Dogg but it has a more jazzy feel to it! My favourite track is "Batter up"! If you liked E.I and ride wit me then you are bound to like all the other tracks. Nelly has a style of his own that no other rap artist has, I look forward to his next album! Buy it now!!!!!

This is a brilliant album of bad tunes with stylish rapping from Nelly. I didn't think it was that good when I first started listening to it but it seems to get better every time I do! A must for any rap fan!
Check out 'batter up'

Simply Superb
Nelly is a rapper from St. Louis. A rarity. Along with the rest of the St. Lunatics he has brought St. Louis out of the shadows and into a very bright spotlight. Read more

Nah, this is wack
Unless you're into country pop rap, this ain't for anyone. Ride Wit Me is the only decent song on this extremely poor album. Read more

...definately in the RnB category and not very good at that either...
This album looked pretty sweet, with songs such as Ride Wit Me, Country Grammar and E.I, How Wrong I was, Those 3 are the best songs, but even E. Read more

Not Hip Hop
If you are a pure hip hop fan do not buy this CD, this CD is more R'N'B than hip hop, if you like people like M.O. Read more

The whole album has only 2 good tracks (Country Grammar and E.I.),if you want Dirty South music try Beelow,Smoked Outt Records,CMR,No Limit or Scarface - not this jank.
