Editorial Reviews

Master P's younger brother is at it again. But it's just the same as always. C-Murder is not messing with his uninspired but nonetheless platinum-plated formula. Following the success of his Life or Death and Bossalinie offerings, C-Murder returns with 23-tracks that are sure to impress his fans, but probably won't convert anyone else. Musical highlights include the heavily Tupac-influenced title track with its reverbed ad-libs and synthesizers. Then there's the guitar and pattering snare of "Forever TRU" and the eerie pianos and keys on "Staring at the Walls." But like his previous efforts the subject matter never leaves the streets. Titles like "Damned If They Murder Me," "They Want My Money," "Hustlin'," and "Young Thugs" speak for themselves. Tracks and musical ideas repeat like broken records. This is gangsta rap, not at its best, but adequate enough for day-to-day bump in your Jeep. But if you're looking for challenging hip-hop, with Trapped in Crime you're definitely looking in the wrong place. --Kenji Jasper

4.0 out of 5 stars Good 3rd album from C, November 30, 2004

By	G$ "Z-Wad" (B-More, MD) - See all my reviews

C-Murder returns after 18 months to bring you his 3rd album in as many years. Slightly less quality than his first two but it still is a good album. Only has 3 songs on here that don't feature someone else. Has 3 or 4 songs that I skip and one classic track and one real good one, most are average or pretty good however. Production duties are mostly handled by XL (8 songs) and Ke'noe (5 songs) with a few others contributing most namely Jermaine Dupri and LT Hutton. A good album to have for hardocre rap or southern rap fans.

#2 - 8 (samples Biggie's "Gimmie the Loot")
#3 - 8 (f/ Snoop Dogg, Tray Deee, Goldie Loc {Eastsidaz} & kokane)
#4 - 8 (f/ Master P & Erica fox)
#5 - 8.5 (f/ Da Brat - good beat done by Jermaine Dupri - upbeat)
#6 - 6 (f/ Fat Joe)
#7 - 9 (f/ Sam & D.I.G.)
#8 - 7.5 (about being in jail)
#9 - 7 (f/ Young Guns - NOT the ones from Roc-A-Fella)
#10 - 5 (f/ Mystikal)
#12 - 10 (classic deeper song -- f/ Silkk the shocker, MAc & Nuance - my favorite on here)
#13 - 7 (f/ Afficial)
#14 - 7.5 (f/ Master P, D.I.G.)
#15 - 6.5 (f/ Magic, Mac, Peaches)
#16 - 9.5 (great song about Hustlin' -- f/ Krazy, Master P - 2nd best song on the album)
#17 - 7

#21 - 7.5 (f/ Mac, Mia X - about bi+che$ who try to take your money)

4.0 out of 5 stars NO LIMIT FOREVER, November 18, 2000

By	"dawgfatha187" (KILLA KALI) - See all my reviews

"TRAPPED IN CRIME" IS DEFINITELY C-MURDER'S TIGHTEST CD. THIS CD HAS ALOT OF TIGHT SONGS, THE BEST ONES ARE "FOREVER TRU", "CONCRETE JUNGLE" WITH SNOOP AND THE L.B.C CREW, "THEY DONT REALLY KNOW YOU" WITH MASTER P AND ERICA FOX, "RIDE" WITH SAM AND D.I.G., "YOUNG THUGS" WITH POPEYE AND HOLLOWAY, "DOWN 4 MY N'S" WITH SNOOP AND MAGIC, AND "STREET THUGS" WITH NEW-9 AND MAGIC. I THINK THIS CD IS BETTER THAN "BOSSALINIE" AND "LIFE OR DEATH", IT AINT THE BEST NO LIMIT CD BUT IT'S DEFINITELY WORTH CHECKING OUT! SO BUY THIS ALBUM, PEACE OUT.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent cd, September 23, 2000

By	New Customer (USA) - See all my reviews

This is probably C-Murder's best album yet! Too Much Noise is my favorite song from it but the other songs that I like on here are Concrete Jungle, How A Thug Like It, Want Beef, Ride, Staring At The Walls, On Da Block, What You Bout, Where Do We Go, NL Iggaz, That Calliope, They Want My Money, Down For My N's(which is the exact same song from Snoop Dogg's album No Limit Top Dogg), and Street Thugs. Thug In Yo Life is an ok song, but the beat is kinda weak. Oh yeah, and the Otis Commercial and the Interlude right after it are hilarious! If I had a choice I would give this album 4.5 stars but I can only give it 4. If you don't believe me, go check this album out today and see for yourself!
