2.0 out of 5 stars Only 2 stars for the effort...Disappointing!!, October 6, 2002

This review is from: Golden Grain (Audio CD)

After listening to this album several of times I just can't get into it like I can when I am listening to a Ludacris Album.I would have to say about 2 of the songs are good on the cd which are the "Growing Pains-remix" and "R.P.M." featuring Twista.I felt the album was put together in a hurry and it could have been produced better.I highly recommend that you preview this album before buying it because it didn't move me at all so thats why I only can give it 2 stars which is because of the effort.

What can I say about D.T.P., except that they have got it going on! Their CD "Golden Grain" is a perfect example of dirty south bounce music that'll keep you on your toes all day long. The first single released off the album was the "Growing Pains Remix" featuring Lil' Fate, Ludacris, Shawna, Scarface, and Keon Bryce. The track bring you back to what it was like growing up as a kid. From have G.I. Joe's and Cabbage Patch kids to having your bike stolen.

Another one of the tracks that I'm sure you have heard by now is "Move Bi**h" (Ludacris featuring I-20 and Mystikal). If you're having a bad day or are stuck in traffic on the way home just open th windows blast the song and sit back and relax!

Also, the song Posted by Shawnna is a tight song. Shawnna is one of the best female rappers in the game next to Eve.

So all in all, you can't go wrong with an all star team like the Disturbing Tha Peace family!

ust in case you hadn't gotten enough of Ludacris in the last year, the Dirty South's biggest mouth is back with his crew of ATL all-stars, Disturbing Tha Peace. With six members -- Luda, Shawna, Lil' Fate, Jay Cee, I-20, and the unfortunately named Titti Boi -- DTP runs deep. But unlike a lot of posse albums, not every member of this collective needs to spit bars on every track, and the result is a confident, refreshingly laid-back debut.
While the album kicks off with the by-the-numbers crunk of "Break Sumthin'" -- which just can't compete with Luda's own "Move Bitch" for sheer wild [butt] kicks -- it quickly improves with the soulful summertime groove of "Growin' Pains." Shawna proves herself as a solo MC on the Neptunes-esque "Posted," and I-20 gets his own on "Can't Be Stopped." The only two tracks that come close to featuring all personnel are "N.S.E.W." and "Outro on Ya A." The result of this individualized approach is that DTP's various MCs are given a chance to stretch out and develop their game.

Guests are kept to a minimum, too. Def Jam South kingpin Scarface gets his beak wet on the aforementioned "Growin' Pains," and the legendary Too Short presides over "Pimp Council" (which boasts some of the funniest exchanges of the album). But mostly DTP is left to its own devices, and they rise to the challenge like the stars they're hoping to become.
