| | Album Notes and Credits |
Notes & Personnel Info |  | Additional personnel: Charlay, DJ Unk, Da Brat, Jim Jones, Damon Dash, Trey Songz, Peanut, Bow Wow, Bun B (rap vocals). | | Whether or not Dem Franchize Boyz are really on top of their game, as the title of their sophomore release claims, seems to be a subject of debate among hip-hop heads. But judging from the success of their self-titled debut, the popularity of the hit singles "White Tee" and "I Think They Like Me," and the deluxe packaging of this second album, they are certainly at their commercial apex. | | The music on ON TOP OF OUR GAME offers more of what listeners enjoyed on their debut: smoked-out, head-nodding beats, raps from the Franchize clique, and hands-in-the-air, chant-along choruses. Producer Jermaine Dupri gives the whole set a colossally booming vibe well-suited to any bass-heavy sound system, and guest appearances by Bun B, Trey Songz, and Three 6 Mafia add a bit of glitter. |
| | Artist Overview | | Atlanta rap foursome Dem Franchize Boyz are purveyors of their own self-described style of "laid back crunk"--or "snap music" as it's often known--a woozier, less hyperactive version of the popular southern rap genre. Just how laid back the club gets when D.F.B's "Lean Wit It, Rock Wit It" and "I Think They Like Me" hit the speakers is certainly up for debate. Whatever the effect, though, the Boyz's 2006 full-length, ON TOP OF OUR GAME, which spawned the above singles, proved to be a crossover smash, hitting #5 on the Billboard pop charts. |

- 3 stars out of 5 -- "[B]asically hip hop stripped down and slowed down, then dirtied up for clubs....Often electrifying..."Vibe (p.150)
- 3 discs out of 5 -- "DFB offers tracks that contain all the requisite finger-snapping and multitoned 8o8 bass that makes snap music fun. It's a vibrant blend that works..." |
