The Grammy-nominated New Orleans rap pioneers continue their trend of landmark releases with the forthcoming chart buster Big Money Heavy Weight. Fresh and Baby exhibit a dynamic chemistry working together. "We were just hustlers," Baby says, "we were used to keeping our artists on the grind. Fresh was the producer. I was the co-CEO with my brother. Time brings on a change. That's how it came out like this." With lively tag-team lyrics, Baby's "lovable" attitude and Fresh's magical musical abilities, the Big Tymers maintain their reign as the Starsky and Hutch of music

The Big Tymers don't really have anything new to say on Big Money Heavyweight. They're still rapping about the Cash Money lifestyle -- one of luxury characterized by a boisterous gangsta stance and firm ghetto roots, and stacks of greenbacks. This is their stock-in-trade. It always has been, and probably always will be. What is new here, however, is Mannie Fresh's continual development as a producer, and the duo's continual development as songwriters. When they began, back in 1998, they were middling down-South gangsta rappers spitting game about money they probably didn't have. Here, five years later in 2003, they're budding songsmiths with enough industry influence to reign in big-money unit-movers like R. Kelly (who wrote and produced the radio-ready "Gangsta Girl") and Ludacris (who leads off "Down South," a standout shout-out to the South's finest). Then there's the leadoff track, "This Is How We Do," a singsongy upbeat single propelled by an acoustic guitar that aspires to duplicate the cha-ching commercial success of "Still Fly," the very similar singsongy upbeat single from the last Big Tymers album, Hood Rich. Granted, Baby and Mannie don't exactly have a wealth of original ideas, the songwriting grace of R. Kelly, or the lyrical wit of Ludacris, but they do have their finger on the pulse of the zeitgeist, and give the people what they want, more or less -- even if that means rewriting their biggest hit to date, having the industry's pied piper write an R&B-crossover single for them, or bringing aboard the South's most popular rapper for a regional anthem. The paper-stacking commercial march of the original Big Money Heavyweights marches on, overall here, with a little more songwriting shine and a little less gutter splatter than last time, even if these Big Tymers don't really have anything new to say, just a smoother way to say it. ~ Jason Birchmeier
Cash Money key players Bryan "Baby" Williams and Mannie Fresh continue to profess their love for American currency, women, and more American currency on their fourth album, BIG MONEY HEAVYWEIGHT. In case you were concerned about their financial status, the Big Tymers are still fiscally sound, as they reveal on beat-driven tunes such as "This Is How We Do," "Got Everything," and the title track. Williams and Fresh also espouse their love for the South on two ditties with Lil' Wayne--"Southern Boy" (also featuring Bun-B) and "Down South," (with Jazze Pha). The true highlight of this Big Tymers outing, however, is the amazingly catchy R. Kelly collaboration "Gangsta Girl," which sports Kelly's unmistakable melodies backed by Latin-tinged rhythms.
