The New Ludacris is Gonna be Crack



A while ago, I went on here pronouncing the same thing about the new Black Milk album, Tronic. Well that dropped tuesday and is pretty damn good but shouldn't be classified as crack, so I'm gonna try it again with Ludacris' Theatre of the Mind. I'm not one of those underground heads who thinks Luda is wack because he raps about cars and nonsense, but I will say that I haven't been a fan of his work in general probably since "Roll Out", and that was like 5-6 years ago. His humorous verse on Game's album and a few decent singles peaked my interest a little bit, but today the tracklisting came out and I'm starting to think this may actually be good, like, really good. Anyway, here it is:
01. Call Up the Homies (Co-starring The Game & Willy NorthPole) (Produced By Clinton Sparks)
02. Do the Right Thing (Co-starring Common & Spike Lee) (Produced By 9th Wonder)
03. Everybody Hates Chris (Co-starring Chris Rock) (Produced By Don Cannon)
04. I Do It for Hip-Hop (Co-starring Nas & Jay-Z) (Produced By WYLDFYER)
05. Last of a Dying Breed (Co-starring Lil Wayne) (Produced By WYLDFYER)
06. Let’s Stay Together (Produced By DJ Paul & Juicy J)
07. MVP (Produced By DJ Premier)
08. One More Drink (Co-starring T-Pain) (Produced By Trackmasters)
09. Southern Gangsters (Co-starring Playaz Circle & Rick Ross) (Produced By STREETRUNNER)
10. Undisputed (Co-starring Floyd Mayweather Jr.) (Produced By Don Cannon)
11. What Them Girls Like (Co-starring Chris Brown & Sean Garrett) (Produced By Darkchild)
12. Wish You Would (Co-starring T.I.) (Produced By DJ Toomp)
13. Nasty Girl (Co-starring Plies & Swizz Beatz) (Produced By Swizz Beatz)
I'm sure there will plenty of wack shit on this as should be expected from anything released on Def Jam, but some of those tracks have mad potential. Here is one man's review of the album.
