5.0 out of 5 stars Classic, best post Cash Money Album, June 10, 2005

By	Dorrie Wheeler - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

B.G.'s Heart of Da Streetz is a modern classic. B.G. is at his best on this 17 track album. Heart of Da Streetz was released by Chopper City Records/Koch Records this past May. B.G. had many hits and participated in many hit songs while he was affiliated with Cash Money Records. His biggest hit at Cash Money, "Bling-Bling," changed the vocabulary of millions.

Bottom line, this album is a classic. Although no longer with Cash Money, production wise, it still has that flavah that a lot of the early Cash Money records had. It's right up there with Juvenile's 400 Degreez. The first single, "Where Da At," has a hypnotic track. The album version is slightly different than the one currently on radio, both songs are hot but I prefer the album version.

B.G. is very personal and reflective on this album. He shares with his listeners that he has left drugs alone because it was hindering his talent. He also still has animosity about his situation at Cash Money. On the banging song "U See Why," he laments about how he feels frustrated at times but through faith God tells him he is going to give him everything he gave Cash Money and more. B.G. also expresses that his love for his son helps to keep him out of trouble. "U See Why," is a real chill song you can ride to.

Another stand out song on the album is "Do That S%&#." "Fool With It" is another banger. B.G. stuck with family on this album and worked with his Chopper City artists. His little brother Hakizzle is a guest artist on the song "Oh No."

Lyric wise this album is hot. Production wise this album is hot.

This album is real street and nothin less. Im from da Chi and i still bump BG all the way up here. BG is spittin for all the real G's and niggas in the struggle. BG raps from his heart all the time and thats why he is the Heart of Tha Streetz.

1.0 out of 5 stars The worst B.G album ever, December 3, 2005

By	Viper (Chicago IL) - See all my reviews

I'm not hating on Gizzle, I think he's one of the best rappers from the south. However this CD fails misreably on every level. It's just not the same as his previous albums. There are a couple decent tracks and some good production and that saves it from being worse but it's still not a good album. B.G has shown that he can make a good album without Cash Money as prooven by Livin Legend and Life After Cash Money but maybe he should consider going back if he's going to put out trash like this. I hear he might be signing to G-Unit soon and I hope this is true so he can make a better album and get more recognition. Sorry Gizzle but this just didn't work for me. If you want a good B.G album get Chopper City In The Ghetto. Hell get any of his previous albums, but don't get this.
