Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Devin The Dude is a Dirty South underground legend. Appearing on such classics as Scarface's F. Friends and Dr. Dre's F. You...Devin has never been outshined. He is a chilled out hustler and pimp with a love for the sticky icky and his music reflects this. This album sounds high. It is so free flowing and laid back...you can let it play right through. There are no upbeat uptempo tracks no sir. I believe you have to be pretty laid back as a person to truly appreciate this album. Devin's rhyme style is humorous at times and he is telling stories most of the album. His voice is better than most with his slow smooth talk/rap over smooth beats. He shows he can get down with some of the best on Some Of Em with Xzibit and Nas. Just Trying Ta Live just makes you say ahhhhhh....I mean there's really not much to explain about it. Doobie Ashtray would have to be my favorite track on the album though. With a great chorus and a phenomenal beat provided by DJ Premier, this is one of the best songs of the year.
"what you gon do when the people go home and you wanna smoke weed but the reefas all gone,
somebody had the nerve to take the herb outta the doobie ashtray why they do me that way,
What you gonna do when your friends go home and you wanna drink a beer but your ends all gone,
somebody had the nerve to take the herb outta the doobie ashtray why they do me that way"
That's a taste of the vibe of the album. This album is easily one of the years best and you should definitely check it out if you a chill out type of person. Must buy.
