"I always liked Turk but I was somewhat worried about this album. Most people think of Turk as the 4th Hot Boy and all things being considered he is probably the least popular Cash Money Artist. So I was worried that the Cash Money crew wouldnt put the effort into this album and it would be weak. I was very wrong. This is honestly a great album. Im not one of those people who gives every album 5 stars.... if I dont like an album I will be honest and tell you that, but this album is very good. Some of the skits on the album are pointless, but since only 4 of the 21 tracks are skits its not that big of a deal. My favorite songs on the album are "Its In Me" "Yes We Do (feat hot boys and mack 10)", "Untamed Guerilla", "What Would You Do", and "Freak Da Hoes (feat mannie fresh)". It does seem that Cash Money has expanded their roster though..... they now have the 2 Big Tymers (baby, fresh), the 4 Hot Boys (turk, wayne, juvey, bg), The r+b group "Official", Mack 10, a group called "the capos", an artist named Christina and an artist named Mickey. I dont know very much about The Capos, Mickey or Christina.... but we all know for a fact what the Big Tymers and Hot Boys can do, Mack 10 is a great addition to Cash Money and the group Official can sing just like 112 or jagged edge. But anyways, back to Turks album.... this album was a real pleasant suprise. Like I said earlier,,, a lot of people consider Turk the Worst of the Cash Money crew,,, but even if you are one of these people I think you should STILL check this album out. Its hot. As much as I loved Waynes new album I think the ONLY albums from the hot boys members that are better than Turks album are "400 degreez" and "chopper city in the ghetto"...... I like the g code, i like waynes albums, and I like all of bg's stuff,,,, but Turks album is the bomb! if you are looking for a comparison to other cash money albums well here it is... 1. "400 degreez" 2. "guerilla warefare" 3. "chopper city in ghetto" 4. "YOUNG AND THUGGIN" 5. "i got that work" 6. "lights out" 7. g code" 8. "block is hot" 9. "get it how u live" 10. "checkmate"...... BUY TURKS ALBUM!"

"Young & Thuggin is an absolutely awesome album. I hope radio/BET get behind Turk in the future. Turk managed to debut in the top 10 on the Billboard charts which shows how popular he has become despite lack of a mainstream push. Anyways-as far as the album--in a word, dope. Mannie Fresh is on top of his game. And I was skeptical about Cash Money adding new rappers to their roster but everyone comes off great. Also--the song Freak Da Hoes will be a huge hit if they release it. Anyways-the new Turk album is fire and Cash Money's future is brighter than ever."

They just can't go wrong...

"If you're a fan of Cash Money, or even if you've bobbed your head to anything from Cash Money, go get this CD. Mannie Fresh is at the top of his game, and Turk is still that verbal arsenist he was on Get It How U Live!!There's only one downfall, and that's the absence of my favorite rapper, Juvenile. But don't get me wrong, it doesn't take anything away from the CD. There are a couple new prospects appearing for the first time, and...well...they make up for his absence beautifully.All the songs are good, but some of my favorites are #'s 2, 3, 5, 10, 12, 14, 19."
