Diddy. The infectious "Shake Ya Tailfeather" shot to number one, and following its success comes Murphy's debut solo set, MURPHY'S LAW, a lively collection of lyrical acrobatics about women, cars, and new slang set to intense, dance-floor-ready beats. | | Lee's certainly about inclusion, and MURPHY'S LAW is a continual party with guests stopping by from all over; the best gathering shows up on the pounding, rock-inflected "This Goes Out" with Nelly, Lil' Wayne, Lil Jon, and many others celebrating hip-hop from various corners of the country. And Lee's subtle country drawl plays well with others as it preaches of an inviting rap world. Even when he claims to eschew hooks--which he and Jermaine Dupri do on "Wat Da Hook Gon Be"--a hook somehow wends its way to the top. MURPHY'S LAW is about just that--constantly catchy and consistently engaging, a satisfying debut from a member of hip-hop's hottest groups. |
