| | Rick Ross Deeper Than Rap CD Rick Ross Discography of CDs
 (22 Customer Reviews)
On his third studio LP, Mafioso rapper Rick Ross takes a page from the Notorious B.I.G., celebrating the spoils of his gangsta lifestyle over 14 considerably smoother tracks. Reeling from the allegations of his past as a corrections officer, Ross does his best to assert street credibility, throwing shots at 50 Cent on the album opener, "Mafia Music." From there, the Miami representative calls on a lengthy group of big-name guest artists (Lil Wayne, Kanye West, T-Pain, John Legend, The-Dream, among others) to collaborate on a slew of R&B-flavored cuts. Like Biggie at his best, Ross is able to maintain a mood of gangsta menace over the smoothest, radio-friendly beatscapes (courtesy of dirty south production heavyweights like the Runners, J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League, the Inkredibles, DJ Toomp, and Drumma Boy) while largely toning down the verbal violence in favor of lavish-life boasting.Billboard (p.63) - "For the first time, Ross has a sound as rich and lustful as his expertly furnished persona."

 GREAT
Well Rick Ross said he was putting out the album of the year and so far Id have to sy he has. Im not even a Rick Ross fan, but this blows away the two albums I was looking forward too the most, Eminem & Busta Rhymes. Ross delivers on every track, nice smooth beats & great guest appearances.

| | Lawrence "Black" Ardoin Tradition Creole CD (1999)
Deeper Than Rap music CDs
$9.49
It's a pretty general rule that Cajun music uses a fiddle, a zydeco, and a R&B band to complement the accordion's leading role. Well, Lawrence"Black" Ardoin must have figured rules are made to broken because fiddler Edward Poullard is in the band here and that touch helps make Tradition Creole one of the most distinctive zydeco discs around, one that sounds as fresh in its expanded CD version now as the original LP did in 1984.
It almost sounds like Poullard is playing with the band for the first time (not true) because he's all over the place, certainly far more prominent than Sean Ardoin's sax,. Lawrence Ardoin, the son of old-timer Alphonse "Bois Sec" Ardoin, and now father/manager of newcomer Chris Ardoin, who is an appealing singer in his own right and, a solid, old-school accordion player who knows the spots to drop in his nothing-fancy fills.
The material is mainly Ardoin originals in the classic zydeco vein, but there are covers of the bluesy "Haunted House" (sung in French with a "Yakety Yak" feel), Cookie & the Cupcakes' swamp pop classic "Matilda," Rockin' Sidney's pop-rock zydeco, "What's Good For The Gander," and a vocal feature for Poullard in J.B. Lenoir's "Talk To Your Daughter." Zydeco godfather Clifton Chenier gets three uptempo credits ("Ay, Ai, Ai," "Nonc Edward," and "Every Now And Then").
"I've Been There" starts upbeat with fine drumming, two-step bass and a country-ish flavor courtesy of Poullard before --oh, the hell with details. They do blues, they do ...

| | Nathaniel Mayer Why Won't You Let Me Be Black? CD (2009)
Deeper Than Rap music CDs
$12.05
Nathaniel Mayer's big moment in the spotlight didn't last long -- his sole hit, the truly wild "Village of Love," climbed the charts for a few months in 1962 and he never had a follow-up. But when Mayer returned to recording and performing in the new millennium, he didn't waste time -- after the release of I Just Want to Be Held in the fall of 2004, Mayer kept himself busy touring and recording, releasing Why Don't You Give It to Me? in 2007 and regularly playing shows in America and Europe until he was sidelined by a stroke in the spring of 2008 (complications would claim his life before the year was out). While the sessions for Why Don't You Give It to Me? only lasted two days, there were six tunes left over, and combined with two acoustic performances from radio broadcasts, they've been released as Why Won't You Let Me Be Black? (The title comes from something Mayer told a French promoter after he got ...
