"Jesus was a carpenter so we're proud about cocking them hammers." The first song, 'Georgia', is dope with its interesting production, variation between the choruses and verses, Jamie Foxx doing a Ray Charles impression quite successfully, and with Luda doing what he always does by giving a commanding performance. From there, the label-mates get a chance to shine and all songs are okay but until 'Break a Nigga Off', with its contagious hook, they are the weakest moments of the album. 'Sweet Revenge' will likely have your head bouncing from the jump, with its catchy beat and Luda's 2pac like delivery, but the way it's broken up with some spoken section makes it drag on a touch more than it needs to. Bobby V, who I'm a fan of, comes with 'Table Dance', and it's okay, but he has so many better songs. It's surprising they couldn't come up with a better way to give him shine to a wider audience through this album. Due to their usual length, a posse cut always needs good production, and with 'Family Affair' we are provided with one making it the second best track here. The following and final song is an odd punk/rap rock song that I did not expect to hear on this project. I do not like most of it at all. Most of the other better moments are songs Luda is on towards the tail of the album like 'Two Miles an Hour (Remix)' that begins with the comedic lines, "Yeah.. we gon' send this one out / To e'rybody that put mo' into they cars than they do they relationship." Despite not being on a heap of tracks, Ludacris is still the star here. I don't think he has an amazing discography, but from the point of view of voice, presence, skill level, versatility, etc, there are few better hip hop artists. This is between a 3 and a 3.5 out of 5. I've given this half a dozen spins, which goes some way to indicating that I've enjoyed it and think it has some quality, but while consistent, it doesn't many great tunes and the front end is lacking. Beats: ★★★ Rapping/Bars: ★★★ Hooks: ★★★★ Best Tracks: Georgia, Sweet Revenge, DTP for Life, Two Miles an Hour (Remix), You Ain't Got Enough, Family Affair
