Hailing from Atlanta, GA, the hardcore trio Lil Jon & the East Side Boyz are the premier practitioners of the southern rap sub-genre colloquially dubbed "crunk." The style is exemplified by forceful, primal beats, over-the-top, chanted vocals, and a bad-boy/party-hardy attitude that bypasses gangta cool in search of a pure visceral, hedonist high. Accordingly, there's little subtlety to be found on KINGS OF CRUNK, and rightfully so. Would you really want to hear a tender love ballad from leather-lunged badass Lil Jon? Wisely, Jon and his Boyz stick to their strengths, to such an extent that the weak of heart should have a physician on hand when listening to KINGS OF CRUNK, just in case they should be overcome by the sheer fierceness of it all.
The trio, made up of producer/performer Lil Jon, Big Sam and Lil Bo, have put together an album full of their signature club anthems. Featuring 8 Ball & MJG, Big Tymers, Fat Joe, Jadakiss, Mystikal, Petey Pablo, Trick Daddy and more. TVT Records. 2002.

The best lil jon cd out of all of them Kings of Crunk is something i listen to everyday and never get tired of. Its an ingenious approach to balancing rhyming chants and crunk beats and is the best cd ive ever bought. You would probably hate it if your 80+ years old, otherwise this cd is a wise buy.
