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.

"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.

This was an album full of struggle and hardship but was actually brought out in a harmonious manner. it was a n original mix of tough lyrics thrown over some instrumentals that had melody to them. It was very unique in the way it was not the traditional "No Limit, this CD was thrown together in two weeks and it shows" type of album. I'm glad he went off to C-Loc Records. Big Ups to the man holding it down for Baton Rouge.

This album is far better than any no limit cd made so far. His beats are tight and he flows so smoothly that it leaves you bobbing your head. Buying this cd is an "offer you can't refuse"

For some of you may think Young Bleed is with No Limit, he is not, Bleed, is in C-Loc Records and P, just helped C-Loc start his label, eventhoug Bleed is tight, P just helped him get started.

I was lucky enough to find this CD the first day it came out and have honestly listened to it on the daily ever since. He has some of the most fluid rhymes and they aren't so speedy that you have to D.J. Skrew it to understand. The basslines, highs and lows are good to cruise to or just bump with your headphones. The best part is that you hardly have any Master P vocals so it's really like an independent, southernplayalistic style with the incredible studio sounds that only P could produce. You will NOT be disappointed with this CD. Bleed hasn't blown up yet so get this disc if you want something fresh that hardly anyone has heard of. Ya heard ME!!!

This is one of the rawest cds out from no limit beside Mac shell shooked. Young Bleed and Mac cds I can listen to them and just ride out. I reminds me when I used jam this in the streets of Jackson,MS. I think I'm gone cop this tommorrow along with shell shooked.

Young Bleed is one of the most underrated rappers on the scene today. He is under megastars like Master P, Silkk the Shocker and Mystykal. In my opinion he is the bomb.

Young Bleed has a unique talent for flowing to any beat. His southern beats accompany his errie voice well. Some of the tracks are exceptional, while others just the opposite. This is the type of release that grows on you, chances are the more you listen to it, the more you appreciate it. His style is not for everyone, but he has a talent for writing songs that flow incredibly well at times. "How Ya Do Dat" is a great party song, while "The Day Dey Make Me Boss" is a trip into the mind of Young Bleed. There is a little bit of something for everyone on this CD, yet not versitile for everyone's taste. If you like hard rap with a soothing voice, take a look at this (in my opinion) great release.
