CD Reviews

Slim Thug Quietly Dropped A Classic
Enlightened | Atlanta Georgia | 08/26/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Slim Thug has been one of my favorite rappers of the past few years. He has not disappointed me and is one of the most consistent rappers of his era. Literally everything he's put out has been solid. Already Platinum is a personal classic to me and many reviewers and Boss Hogg Outlawz - Serve & Collect was possibly the best underground album of 2007. Every song jammed on that even though some members of the BHO weren't that good.





Slim Thug makes his mark on 2009 with his criminally slept on Boss of All Bosses. Continuing the string of quality music, Thugga decided to go back to his roots and not the commercial route of the Neptunes produced tracks. The production on this album is superb to say the least. Slim Thugs flow and commanding voice go perfectly over every track and Slim Thug's lyrics are at their pinnacle. He rips every track never missing a beat. Leaning boasts a great beat and one of the last Pimp C collaborations and the track doesn't disappoint one bit. Every song rides but if I had to pick She Like That would be the absolute standout track with it's thick bass and slow beat and killer verses from Slim Thug. The vibe on this one is just too trill to be ignored. Associates, Hard, Top Drop, Thug etc. all ride out. The song length for each track lingers around the 5 minute mark but never feels like you're waiting on the next track. As a matter of fact the tracks make you wish they were longer. That's how good the songs and the album as a whole is.





Nearly every rapper with a name in Texas has come through on this record to cosign Slim Thug and most of them appear on the album closer Welcome To Houston which is a collaboration of epic proportions. The song features Paul Wall, Chamillionaire, Mike Jones, Trae The Truth, Z-Ro the Crooked, UGK, Lil Keke, Big Pokey, Mike D, Lil O, and Rob G for a 9 minute opus and introduction to the sounds of HTown. Devin The Dude,Scarface,JDawg, and Killa Kyleon also contribute on various songs and it just speaks volumes to sticking together and making hot music together instead of beefing all the time. Even though it seems like it is too many guests it really isn't as Slim Thug shines on every track and there is never confusion as to whose song it is.





I've been looking for a reason not to rate this a classic album but I cannot find one. On the blogs, on the internet boards and in real life I have yet to hear people objectively say that this album wasn't a stellar effort. In my opinion it's one of the best albums of the year (Deeper Than Rap I must admit is still the best album I've heard this year) and should definitely be PURCHASED because the music speaks for itself.

Absolutely Classic Slim Thugga
TexasRiolo22 | Layton, UT | 12/29/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This album is Slim Thug keeping it gangsta and not changing up for nothing.. This album is the real Slim Thug. Already Platinum was a solid album but you could tell it wasn't the real Slim Thug. This album is classic from start to finish. This is a must buy for any Rap fan. Go get it and support great "artists"."
