Customer review:
I first bought this album because of one specific song - Cadillac on 22’s. After hearing that, actually tryin to understand it, its got a deep meaning to it. Makes me respect it much more than the rest of the garbage coming out by lil jon and the likes. In fact, that’s what makes this album so bad, the attempt at making that type of ’crunk’ music. "F*** em" has to be the absolute worst song I’ve ever heard. Ever. It’s just plain horrible. That’s what makes this thing 4 instead of 5 stars. Other stuff like "my shawty", "mississippi", "so trill" are more about real life than this other trash out there.

Banner doesn’t make any references to carryin his "AK" or all that (which we know, lil jon relies on his bodyguards for protection and most likely has never touched a gun), so most of his songs are more "real" to life. As for "like a pimp", it’s the ’star’ of the album, not really my favorite, but still a good song. "choose me" is a pretty good song, has a good beat to it, not too much of the "YEAH! OKAY!" stuff with it - which unfortunately appears on "might getcha". I’d recommend it if you can appreciate rap music that’s not about "shooting n***as" and everything that doesn’t even happen in the life of most of those rappers.
