Long on talent but short on industry luck, (Mad) Skillz has earned a name for himself among underground fans for his dazzling freestyles and audacious singles but, so far, has failed to put out a commercially viable album. On his third official effort, THE MILLION DOLLAR BACKPACK, Skillz proves what longtime listeners have known for years--namely that the Virginia rapper holds the most apt stage name in hip-hop. In addition to the usual barrage of verbal acrobatics and head-scratching similes, Skillz uses a band of capable producers (DJ Jazzy Jeff, Questlove, Bink, Kwame, Orthodox, Yusef Deniro, among others) in order to put together a well-rounded LP that moves from grimy and hardcore to uplifting and danceable. Common, Freeway, and Black Thought are also featured.CMJ - "This 14-track album is hip-hop at its best: forgoing shock value and obscenity for a hard yet hopeful observation of life."
XXL (Magazine) (p.114) - "Skillz starts off strong, with the Freeway-guested 'Don't Act Like You Don't Know.' Over a soulful bounce and sped-up vocal sample, he drops double entendres..."

Purchase Million Dollar Backpack CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Young Buck Straight Outta Cashville: G Unit Collectors Edition Vol. 2. CDs (2004) Parental Advisory; Limited Edition
Million Dollar Backpack
 $19.29   
STRAIGHT OUTTA CASHVILLE lives up to the N.W.A. reference in its title. Like N.W.A., Buck delivers lyrical blows--sudden, blunt, and ruthless--without forgetting the importance of a powerful hook to seduce the listener into his murky world, particularly on the hit single "Let Me In." As with fellow G-Unit member 50 Cent, Young Buck lived the life he relates. His life pours out gloriously and without apology on "Look at Me Now" and "Prices on My Head." Young Buck has hustled hard to get his chance, but on STRAIGHT OUTTA CASHVILLE, he offers a powerful panorama of street life.
This DVD is a home-town testament destined to mark country music's ground zero as a place where hip-hop bumps as much as Brooks & Dunn. Buck says, "It tells you my way of living up on to this day. I wan't the world to get a feel of me, showing them the way I am and the way I get down."
The timing of Young Buck's last-minute addition to G-Unit (in the wake of original member Tony Yayo's incarceration), mere months before the group released the massively successful BEG FOR MERCY, may seem fortuitous to say the least. However, the hard-as-death rapper from Tennessee had been on the edge of the rap ...
