Notes & Personnel Info |  | Personnel: Ludacris; Field Mob, Ghostface, Jamie Foxx, Redman, Shawnna, Bobby Valentino, Luke , Shareefa, Lazyeye. |  | Recording information: 2005. |  | With 2005's DISTURBING THA PEACE, Ludacris once again joins the grand hip-hop tradition of established rappers lending a helping hand to the crews they came up with. Although first and foremost a showcase for his label, Ludacris fans will be happy to know that he's all over the album, standing firmly in the spotlight on tunes like "Sweet Revenge" and "Family Affair." Not surprisingly--given Ludacris's barking drawl of a delivery, his wit, and his sense of fun--these are the high points of the album. Still, there's plenty to listen to here; in addition to a host of Hotlanta talent, including Shawnna, Lil' Fatek, and various members of Field Mob, the collection's first single, "Georgia," features Oscar-winner Jamie Foxx on vocals. And although the album's lyrics tend to stick to Ludacris's favorite subjects--partying, smoking, and sex--there are also poignant tales of growing up in Atlanta's rougher neighborhoods, and the camaraderie necessary to get by. DISTURBING THA PEACE also comes with an exclusive bonus DVD that features videos and documentary footage. |
