"Still Fly" was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Awards for Best Rap Performance By A Duo Or Group. With HOOD RICH, Big Tymers, a.k.a. Mannie Fresh and Brian "Green" Williams, bring an album that's a cut above the run-of-the-mill efforts of many of their contemporaries, in production smarts at least. Lyrically, the duo's lyrical preoccupations (big pimpin', hoes, money and lack/abundance of same) are much the same as they ever were, but there's an old-school atmosphere to many of the tracks here that gives the whole enterprise a nicely laid-back feel. They knock the ball out of the Cash Money ballpark with "Still Fly," a riches-to-rags homily, and use the vocal talents of Gotti, Mikkey, Jazz Pha, and Tateeze to good advantage on tracks such as the breezy "Sunny Day" and the down and dirty "I'm Comin'." The refrain on "Gimme Some" ("oh when oh when are you gonna gimme some?") won't win any prizes for originality, but the outstanding features on HOOD RICH are the rhythms, which are fat and slow, and the production, which is retro enough to sound almost new.   Compilation Appearances Vol. 1-It's All On U (Explicit Version) Get It How U Live (Explicit Version) Vol. 2-It's All On U (Explicit Version) 400 Degreez (Explicit Version) Crazyndalazdayz (Explicit Version) Guerrilla Warfare (Explicit Version) Chopper City (Explicit Version) Solja Rags (Explicit Version) Backstage Mixtape (Explicit Version) Tha Block Is Hot (Explicit Version) G-Code (Explicit Version) Lights Out (Explicit Version) Young & Thuggin' (Explicit Version) Bang Or Ball (Explicit Version) All About The Benjamins (Explicit Version) All About The Benjamins 500 Degreez (Explicit Version) xXx More Than A Woman Cash Money Greatest Hits Vol. 1 (Explicit Version) Bringing Down The House Let Em' Burn (Explicit Version) Wake Up Show: mix Archives Vol 5 & 6 Greatest Hits(Explicit Version) Greatest Hits (Cln) Essential Toni Braxton Cash Money:10 Years Of Biling Vol 1(Explicit Version)   Technical Info Release Date : 04/30/2002 Original Release Date : 2002 Catalog ID : 860 997 Label : Cash Money Records Number of Discs : 1 Studio/Live : Studio Mono/Stereo : Stereo SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00042286099729
