Two years after their first effort, the ATL crew known as Boyz N Da Hood is back with their sophomore release BACK UP N DA CHEVY on Bad Boy South. Despite the line-up adjustment (Young Jeezy is out on his own, Gorilla Zoe is in), BACK UP N DA CHEVY is, in style, a sequel to their self-titled debut, as the Boyz spin additional tales of Dirty South gunplay, club-hopping, Caddy-pushing, and dro-smoking over a gang of zooming synth-driven tracks. Yung Joc, Ice Cube, Rick Ross, Alpha Mega, T-Rok, Durty, and T-Pain are featured.

Vibe (p.128) - "The group dynamic works fantastically on 'Everybody Know Me'....'Jump' uses strings from Van Halen's song of the same name, creating a wonderfully weird spectacle."

Hot Zoe sucks, Jeezy was the best part of there first album, and now they have this fool. His voice ruins their songs and he is just annoying. But i like everything else. Submitted by Brent (MC, Michigan) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo
Jeezy will be missed While there first album was one of the most underapreciated albums of the year, i was extremly excited for Back up in da chevy. They still got the hard beats and lyrics but the addition of Zoe just ruins the group in a way...His vioce is just too deep and the order they rap in makes for a ear sore. In most of the songs Zoe raps right after Big Gee and it most of the time i dont even relize it because they sound so much alike.Its just annoying....Jeezy come BACK Submitted by Dat (Harlem,New York) Was This Review Helpful?
