10 Years Of Bling Vol. 2 CD

There's still no love for label signees Juvenile or the Hot Boys on the second volume of Cash Money's 10 Years of Bling series. Once again it's mostly Lil Wayne, Big Tymers, and Birdman tracks that rule the roost, with Currency and R&B songstress Teena Marie allowed one cut each. What makes this collection more desirable than its predecessor is the abundance of late-period Lil Wayne tracks, including hits like "Go DJ," "Fireman," "Shooter," and "Stuntin Like My Daddy." That's a lot of high-grade material, but with no history lesson provided in the liner notes, no attempts to dig up unreleased material, and the absence of the rest of the roster, this collection suggests there was little effort put into the compiling, and it should be treated accordingly. ~ David Jeffries
