Who said Crunk just hit the scene? It may have become the mainstream thing of now, but its been around for many years...even before Lil' John could be heard on every radio station in the country...OH KAY?
TVT Presents Crunk Classics takes you on a journey through the hip hop South complete with the hard hitting bass lines to lead the way.
It's all there, from Three 6 Mafia's "Tear Da Club Up '97" to Pastor Troy's "No Mo Play In Ga" to UGK's "Pocket Full Of Stones". And of course you can't forget Lil' John and the Eastside Boys with their huge crossover hit "Get Low"...from the windows to the walls...WHAT?
The CD displays the uniqueness that is crunk...from the Miami Bass sound to the Atlanta underground the beats flow right into the Pimp Cup.
My two favorite crunk tunes found their way to the CD, JT Money's "Who Dat" and Archie Eversole's "We Ready".
The only thing that seemed totally out of place was Petey Pablo's "Raise Up". Not that its not "crunk enough" or not a great song...it just didn't seem to fit with the rest of the tracks.

Um, like, Yee-eeah :)
"Crunk" is a good word. I'm gonna have to get me some, some day.

Let the artist / record company know, perhaps?
