Ying Yang Twins - Me & My Brother
Reviewed By: NOTORIOUS
Album Rate: 4.00 out of 5 Stars



Riding the wave of the hottest rap single in the country "Get Low" with ATL kingz Lil' Jon & Eastside Boyz, D-Roc and Kaine, also known as the Ying Yang Twins return with their latest serving of good ole southern friend crunk - "Me and My Brother".

1. Them Braves - Just your basic introduction of the Ying Yang Twins to those who don't know who they are.

2. Hanh! - Classic crunk song with the Ying Yang Twins giving the world some more southern slang to ride to. Very good song.

3. Whats Happnin! (f/ Trick Daddy) - This track has a synthesiser beat to it which works with Trick Daddy's southern flow. Kaine and D-Roc hold their own with T-Daddy on this blazer!

4. Grey Goose - If you don't give a fuck/put your middle fingers up/and your Kool-Aid in my cup/give me that grey goose - goes the hook. Not too much to this track. Not feeling this one too much. More club track than anything.

5. Salt Shaker (f/ Lil' Jon and The Eastside Boyz) - Lil' Jon returns to put his signature hitmaking stamp on another southern track. Club track as well, but this time it works where Grey Goose did not. I'm seeing this video on BET Uncut already. Track is a banger and a winner.

6. Georgia Dome (Get Low Sequel) - To the ceiling to the flow!/till that hoe don't want no mo!/that bitch better have my doe! I'll let everyone else decide if this is a true banger or if the Ying Yang Twins are tryna milk this one just one too many times. Song clocks in over 6 minutes, a little too long for my taste.

7. What the Fuck! (f/ Killer Mike, Bonecrusher) - Yet another get crunk song. Killer Mike lays a tight verse. Bonecrusher drops some pretty tight vocals as well. Ying Yang do their part as well. Nice track.

8. Callin All Zones (f/ Hitman Sammy Sam, Khujo) - Top notch track! I'd love for this to be a single. Anthem quality to it. Ying Yang kill their verses! Hitman Sammy Sam shows potential NOT seen in the song Step Daddy. Khujo, well, he's from the Goodie MOB so you know he's dropping knowledge. Great Track.

9. Me & My Brother - Another street banger! Crunk, but doesn't have that tear da club up mentality the earlier tracks had - and that's a GOOD thing. D-Roc and Kaine are killing this beat. Another winner.

10. Hard (f/ K.T.) - This track is straight laced with some heat! Another nice track.

11. The Nerve Calmer - song/skit - Tight nonetheless.

12. Naggin' - The video song. You've heard it. You either like it or not. Starting to gain some heat like Get Low but not quite. Decent. Not feeling it too much.

13. Naggin' Part II (The Answer) (f/ Ms Flawless, Tha Rhythum) - The female response - enough said. I wasn't feeling the first one too much and surprise, surprise - I'm not feeling this one either.

14. Armageddon - The Ying Yang Twins finish this album up the way they should. Crunk, Crunk, Crunk! This beat is very similar to Pastor Troy's No Mo' Play in G.A. - the flows are similar too. Tight track. Nice way to finish it up after the Naggin tracks. Hooks lack a lot to be desired but hey, hooks ain't their forte.

Overall, I was very impressed with this album. I could see the progression that the Ying Yang Twins were making on this record. This album had all you expected plus some very pleasant surprises. In this day and age of guest appearances, the Ying Yang Twins stand on their own feet doing a very, very nice job along the way. I recommend this album to all those who love the ATL/south crunk scene.
