Houston's place on the hip-hop map was beginning to gain focus by the mid 2000s, and rapper Paul Wall--of iced out grill fame--was at the forefront of that effort. His 2005 release THE PEOPLE'S CHAMP (released concurrently with a Chopped and Screwed remix version), finds its home in the beats and party themes that typify the Dirty South style, with plenty of woozy tempos, brain-bending samples, and rapid-fire raps drawled smooth and easy. |
|
The album's first single, "Sittin' Sidewayz," is a case in point, with Salih Williams's top-notch production providing the perfect context for Wall's skills on the mic. The high production values don't dilute any of the album's swagger, however, making THE PEOPLE'S CHAMP the perfect match for a boomin' system in the trunk of one of the city's famed "draped-up and dripped-out" rides . |

Artist Overview
Mr. Paul Slayton, aka Paul Wall, was born in 1980 and was raised on the slo-mo, "chopped and screwed" stylings of Houston hero DJ Screw. Soon he and fellow hometown MC Chamillionaire converged as the Color Changin Click, enjoying local mixtape success as well as a well-received debut LP, GET YA MIND CORRECT. After a high-profile verse on Mike Jones's "Still Tippin'," solo repute came calling, and 2005's THE PEOPLES CHAMP turned Wall into a superstar. In the ensuing years, he's released GET MONEY STAY TRUE, started his own line of accessories (Grills By Paul Wall), and lent his street cred to singles by the likes of Brooke Hogan.

Spin (pp.135-136)
- "His track with Kanye West, 'Drive Slow,' will rule the radio, but 'State to State' runs the album, with Freeway rubbing Paul's loping brogue with his own sped-up spit." - Grade: A-
