Ludacris "Red Light District"

Posted on 12.7.2004

Ludacris
Album: Red Light District
Release Date: Dec 7, 2004
Label: Def Jam

“Get Back,” the first single, recaptures the intensity of Ludacris’ past hit “Move Bitch,” with kinetic beat work courtesy of KLC of the Medicine Men. Lil Jon contributes moody electric guitars on the alcohol and weed ode “Too Much,” while Timbaland blesses Luda with tribal percussion and avant-garde bounce on “Potion.”

New producer Voodoo nearly steals the show with his haunting Teena Marie sampling on “Child of the Night,” where Ludacris engages in candid self reflection, spitting, “I admit to being trumped by too many distractions, and I’ve been forced to pay for my childish actions.”

DJ Green Lantern turns the Austin Powers theme music into a rowdy soundtrack for Ludacris to fire off cocky boasts on “Number One Spot,” with Luda even throwing a swift jab at rival Bill O’Reilly.
