4.0 out of 5 stars One of the Better No Limit LPS from the Late 90's, July 15, 2003

By

This review is from: My Balls & My Word (Audio CD)

Young Bleed put out his first LP on Priority/No Limit Records. Young Bleed is really part of the Baton Rounge, Louisana group the Concentration Camp which is on C-Loc Records. He really uses No Limit Records as a way to distribute his LP since C-Loc is based on a underground label, that gives reasons why hes never on any No Limit MC's LP. Young Bleed's "My Balls and My Words", is different from other No Limit LP's because he doesn't have the loaded cameo appearances like on other No Limit MC's. There is still the same formula of tales of sex, drugs, and violence but Young Bleed's laid back voice makes the songs a easy listen to because its so laid back. Young Bleed is a better MC than the average No Limit MC and what he does wrong on this Lp is he doesn't change up his style. This LP will be most favored by people into G-Funk music over gangsta rap music like a Warren G or Snoop Dogg. But hardcore NL fans and people who listen to Baby D and Lil Jon and Eastside Boyz might not be satisfited with this because of the overall direction of Young Bleeds lyrical content. Overall this is a solid debut for a N.O. rapper.

5.0 out of 5 stars That's How it Happenned, November 3, 2001

This review is from: My Balls & My Word (Audio CD)

"Bailin' out the door on my way to the liquor store." Young Bleed spins yarns of reality. He is without a doubt the best product of the No Limit Camp. My Balls and My Word is a title that exemplifies the neccessites of a true player. Take away the expensive cars, flashy women, golden teeth, and green Gators, and what is a man left with. That's right, his courage and his word. The beats groove, but the lyrics are the draw. More than simple rhymes, the songs on this album promote thought. Young Bleed Corleone, as he calls himself, speaks of the world in all its glory and ugliness. In the end one feels as though a portrait of not only ghetto lifestyle, but the lifestyle of anyone who has worked hard to get ahead, has been vividly protrayed right in front of them. This album is not for the weak. Only the real should listen.

This cd is absolutely incredible.It shows the older style no limit, which is much more than i can say for no limit now. "the day they make me boss" is probably my favorite song of all time. Thank goodness young bleed did not stay with P and his no longer good music making company.
