Meth, Ghost & Rae Wu Massacre Review


1.Criminology 2.5
The leaked verision that was Criminology 2 with the second Ghost verse and the Meth verse was awesome. Ilked it alot, this verision not so much something is missing and its rae's contribution. If the leaked verision was on the album id say it was a great way to kickoff the album but this just sounds incomplete.

2.Mef vs. Chef 2
A fun little back and forth between Meth and Chef over an epic Mathematics beat. In that sense its a sweet track. But when compaired to the first incernation of the trackt hat wa s abattle between Meth and rae ove rwho would be on a 36th Chambers track this track doesnt hold up.

3.Ya Moms (skit)
A funny little back in forth skit where Rae and meth tell ya moms jokes. Meth takes in with "ya moms got three fuckin teeth one in her mouth two in her pocket."

4.Smooth Sailing Remix featuring Streetlife Solomon Childs
I really like the beat and Ghost fucking rips the track to pieces with his verse. Solomons hook isnt bad and Meth has a sweet verse. I really like Street's verse which is a play on the cln's members names.

5.Our Dreams
The first single and lone Rza beat. I really like the Michael Jackson sample. Meth, ghost and Rae get their lover boys on and I like it.

6.Gunshowers featuring Sun God & Inspetah Deck
Really like the beat I like the intensity everybody brings to the track thought I dont know why Rae wasnt on the track (same goes for Smooth Sailing). Ghost might of had a head cold the day he recorded his verse and his son Sun God is good just a shame that he will be forever compaired to his father (those are very big shoes to fill). Deck's verse proves that he can still rap just cant make an album though some rappers where nver ment to make solo's . Some rappers are ment to in groups thats not a knock just the truth.

7.Dangerous
My favorite track on the album. Beats is ten shades of great and Rae makes up for lost time. Ghost rips the track in half agian with his verse (the internets already starting rumors over hwoes he talking bout. Is it Shyhiem? Or is it Superb?) I also like Meths verse alot too. i actually like all three of their verses alot this track just works on all levels.

8.Pimpin' Chipp
Another Ghost storytelling track. Man has a real knack for them. He should write crime novels. I'd buy them. P.S. I really like the horns on here.

9.How to Pay Rent (skit)
Short and sweet skit where Tracy Morgan brings the funny.

10.Miranda
Meth, Ghost and Rae get there lover boys on again. This time its over a smooth and soulful Mathematics beat.

11.Youngstown Heist featuring Trife Da God, Sheek Louch & Bully
Very epic beat the fits the storytelling on this track like a glove. I like the concept of Ghost with his protege and the Sheek with his protege.

12.It's That Wu Shit
Not really diggin this beat but Ghost and Meth try their hardest to make it work. Underwhelming ending to sadly an underwhelming album that had its moments.

Project Pat Ghetty Green Review


1.North Memphis
One verse wonder over a hardhitting beat that introduces Project Pat and sets the tone for the album very well.

2.Repersent featuring Juicy J, DJ Paul & N.O.R.E.
Very uptempo rowdy beat that has a marching band feel to it. Everybody involed (even N.O.R.E.) do a good job getting you jacked and ready for whatever you are a bout to do (get in a fight, get drunk, or applieing for a bank loan). Plus I really like N.O.R.E.'s reference to the Big Tymers song Stun'n and how the beat switches up sounding like soldiers marching during Juicy J's verse. All and all a very good very amped song.

3.Out There
Sometimes mistakingly and wrongfully called and refeered to as "Blunt To My Lips" is a very good track where pat proves he aint to fucked with over a very simple yet spookey beat.

4.Niggas Got Me Fucked Up
Project once a gian proving he isnt a bitch over a very smooth beat with a funky guitar riff and heavy bass.

5.You Know the Biss
Project Pat running down how it is where he is from and the harsh reality's of the streets in the unique way only he could over a funky soul sample.

6.Choices
I really like the sample on this. Project tells the tale of a hustler and how it isnt that fun and how he is happy with the choices he made because they got him where his with an album out and money in his pocket, but he wont stop hustlin' for all he can get. Real cool beat switch up halfway during the second verse.

7.Ballers featuring Gangsta Boo
The first and only single and video from the album. Hard hitting beat and Pat (and Boo for that matter) brings his a game for this track. as always his flow is second to known.

8.Run a Train
Title says it all. Hook samples Slob On My Knob. Not a bad song just who want's to hear Project Pat rap about running a train? the intro at the beginnig is a lil to much (I really didnt need to hear Project fuck a bitch).

9.Rinky Dink/Whateva Ho featuring Hypnotize Camp Posse
After a goofey skit the posse cut gets underway. I liked when the posse cuts were in the middle or the beginnig of the albums but I see why the ended up at the end near the end of HCP's run. Oh you want to hear bout the track, dark rowdy beat as one expects from his posse cut's. Plus everybody brings all the have. Crunchy takes what he has to work with (which is a elementary skill set) and brings the gully, Lord's intesity is really good as well. T-Rock might have the best verse, shame he never got a real solo album (running theme on Hypnotize Mind's Records). I also really like the it's whateva whateva ho chant before Project's verse which fittingly is the last one.

10.Up There featuring Krayzie Bone & Raw Dawg
Find it funny that the track that was a truce between Bone Thugs and Three 6 wasnt a track between the two parties. But a weed song between Pat and Krayzie and Gangsta Boo's little brother Raw Dawg, still its a good song I like the eerieness of the beat. Pat and Krayzie bring it and Raw Dawg isnt that bad.

11.Rinky Dink II/We're Gonna Rumble
Another goofey skit. Then my favorite track of the album kicks in I like the simplicty of the beat then that painio roll comes in and then the sax during the hook make this beat epic. Plus Projects raw, grimey lyrics reassure you Project Patta is bout what he talks about.

12.Choppers featuring B.G. & Baby
Cash Money Collab time! B.G. like Pat only knows one way just like Project. Its cool to hear them both on a track together and niether dissapoint. I really like the beat and Damn who couldnt love the the ridiculousness of Baby verse in 1999 (the Atrice Era)?

13.Gold Shine featuring Three 6 Mafia
Like the dark tone to a flossin track. A different direction but well executed. Project's whole personna is that of a gully street cat who even when its sunny out is still in rainy wheather so the track works in that since. I also find Paul Juice Boo and Cruch all spitting four bars during the 2nd verse pretty cool.

14.Ghetty Green
Project Pat talking bout getting money by any means. The man's desperation for money & nonchalant tone in talking bout packing gat's and robbin and killin his buddies mom's for money make this song more dark then most "gotta get money tracks". But then agian Project Patta the skull cracka isnt your average gangster rapper.

15.Sucks on Dick featuring Juicy J
Another track that samples Slob On My Knob. I like this one better beat, better premise and I really like Da Juicemane's verse, Projects verse isnt nothing to shake a stick at either.

16.Shake That Ass
Short but sweet track bout women folk who shack their behind's and the things project does with and to them. Very cool beat. I could see this being a couple strippers songs down south back in the day.

17.Stabbers featuring Crucial Conflict
my second favorite track of the album. love the sample love the beat plus pat and his guests talk bout back stabbing friend with such conviction that you can tell they've dealt with the subject more then once.

18.Slangin' Rocks featuring Gangsta Boo
Really like the beat plus Project's flow like always rules.

19.528-Cash
Project Pats unique take on snitches 'nuff said

20.Ballers [Cash Money Mix]/(Outro) featuring Baby, Hot Boys & Tear Da Club Up Thugs
I really like this remix all the Hot Boys, Project, Juicy, Lord, and even Paul are on point. Baby is Baby. The Beat also knocks hard. Wish there was a video for this as I like it better then the original.
