5.0 out of 5 stars Luda, Rap on, March 22, 2002

By	unraveler "unraveler" (Nevada) - See all my reviews

Not only is Ludacris different, original, not like everybody else in the business, he's got quite a sense of humor. You will get to experience all that as well as his fast, hurricane-speed rhymes on this CD.

After listening to "Area Codes," which, of course, has been played over and over in a sanitized version on the radio and television, you will undoubtedly want to check your horoscope. But don't get overly excited, control your horomones, as Luda advises. "Saturday" is very original, nothing like I have ever heard before. "Rollout" is funny and so relevant. No matter who you are, no matter your skin color, education, profession, etc., if you have lived on this earth for more than just a few years, you have undoubtedly had experience with obnoxious people, sticking their nose into your business. Luda tells these people like it is. And he does so in a way that is creative and funny. Ludacris seems great. If you do not own "Word of Mouf" yet, what exactly is your excuse?

5.0 out of 5 stars Back For The Second Time: Luda does it again, November 29, 2001

By	J. Highsmith (Mitchellville, Maryland United States) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

Although I was feelin' "What's Your Fantasy" when I first heard the song, I was still a little reluctant to purchase "Back For The First Time". Then one day my roomate came home and said, "I got the Luda". After hearing the CD's opening track, "U Got A Problem?", I knew that Ludacris was working with something. I liked the whole CD and my favorite tracks were "Catch Up", "Southern Hospitality", "Phat Rabbit", "Game Got Switched", and my personal favorite w/UGK, "Stick 'Em Up". I knew that Luda would only get better with time. Now with his new release "Word Of Mouf", Luda definitely proves that there will be no sophomore jinx for him. Inbetween CDs, Luda was featured on Funkmaster Flex's Volume 4 mixtape with "Block Lockdown", Three 6 Mafia's "Choices" soundtrack with Dis B****, Dat H*", Missy Elliott's "One Minute Man", 112's "Peaches And Cream" (Remix), and on Jagged Edge's "Cut Somethin'". Everything that Luda has been on has been hot. He also had the lead single to the Rush Hour 2 soundtrack, "Area Codes" w/Nate Dogg. "Word Of Mouf" might as well be "Back For The First Time" Part 2. However, in Luda's case, this is not bad. Ludacris is definitely the Redman of the South. If you listen to Redman's "Malpractice" CD, you will be able to tell how they have tight songs and a few tight skits to mix in with the songs. Both men are able to mix humor in with well defined rap skills. "Word Of Mouf" gets off to a good start with one of the CD's best tracks: "Coming To America". This song is hilarious and even mentions Zamunda but at the same time the skills are there and he is able to keep your attention. The next track is the first single, "Rollout (My Business)". The track is produced by Timbaland and was an excellent choice to be the first single from the CD. "Word Of Mouf" follows the same formula as his first CD because you get the rhymes from Luda and Tha Disturbing The Peace clic, some hilarious skits and you get a few guest appearances as well. Ludacris shows that he definitely will be a force to be reckoned with in rap music. The remainder of the best moments on this CD include the Swizz Beatz produced, "Cry Babies (Oh No)", "Cold Outside" w/Chimere, "Growing Pains", "Word Of Mouf (Freestyle)", "Freaky Thangs" w/Twista & Jagged Edge and the song that should be the next single, the Organized Noize produced "Saturday (Ooh! Ooh!)" w/Sleepy Brown. Ludacris has impressed me with his new offering. His fans will be satisfied with "Word Of Mouf". This CD is a must buy in my opinion. As a bonus, you also get "Block Lockdown" and the track that Luda was featured on that is on Jermaine Dupri's "Instructions" CD, "Welcome To Atlanta".

5.0 out of 5 stars Word Of Mouf told me that this is the best cd i own!, February 10, 2002

By A Customer

Ludacris rules on "Word Of Mouf" and here are a lot of details about it so you'll know:

1. Coming 2 America - i love this track, the first time i turned on the cd, the opening line made me laugh so hard that i could barely listen and pay attention to the rest of the song. Later, i found it was a great track anyway.

2. Rollout (My Business) - great song, loved it on the radio and love it on the album too. Kind of better than "Southern Hospitality", but i won't hold my word on that.

3. Go 2 Sleep - not one of the best points on the album, but Ludacris made such a good story out of it that i love this track a lot.

4. Cry Babies (Oh No) - i can't deny it, this is a great song and it may be one of my favorites ever. The chorus "oh no", makes me love it even more.

5. She Said - awesome, creative lyrics, hot beat, everything needed for a sure-fire hit song. NOTE: I love the way on the third verse, that Cris says the word "butt".

6. Howhere (Skit) - so funny that i laughed my head off. Takes place as a phone conversation between Ludacris and another fellow black star. They use the word "ho", to substitute for words like "Ohio" ( Ohiho ), "Chicago" ( Chicagho ), and other words used everyday.

7. Area Codes - uses the same method from the previous skit to replace "ho" for everyday words. Love the track and i loved the movie "Rush Hour 2", which is a great soundtrack and movie you should definitely look into if you haven't already.

8. Growing Pains - one hot joint with great lyrics and a beat so catchy i loved it.

9. Greatest Hits (Skit) - love how "random white people", do ludacris's greatest hits.

10. Move B***h - oh my god i laughed and sang along all night to this one.

11. Stop Lying (Skit) - funny as hell and creative .

12. Saturday (Ooh Ooh) - great track.

13. Keep It On The Hush - don't like this one too much.

14. Word Of Mouf (Freestyle) - good beat, but weak song.

15. Get The F**k Back - nah. not a good track.

16. Freaky Things (Skit) - um, i guess i could say it's good cause it's funny, so i will.

17. Cold Outside - ludacris really went weak on the last parts of this album.

Bonus Track: Block Lockdown - not to good.

Bonus Track: Welcome 2 Atlanta ( featuring Jermaine Dupri ) - i so love this song on the radio and on the cd.

Hope I gave you some good stuff.
