Paul Wall & Chamillionaire - "Get Ya Mind Correct"
Reviewed By: ULTIMATECDLINK
Album Rate: 4.25 out of 5 Stars
Straight out the Houston underground, Paul Wall & Chamillionaire have recorded lots of albums with Swishahouse. They finally drop a national release and it's a good one.
1. My Money Gets Jealous-- Chamillionaire starts right off and rips a couple of tight verses. The song is about being married to your money. The catchy hook which is in a sing-songy style "don't blame us/for visions of princess cuts in our fingers/big houses, candy paint and swingers yeah/if it ain't bout no money don't call my pager because my money gets jealous. Nice start to the album and definitely one of the tightest tracks on the album.
2. N Luv Wit My Money-- the song starts off with the Chamillionaire singin the hook. Chamillionaire drops a pretty nice first verse. Paul Wall also lays down a solid verse. You can tell from the title what the song is about.
3. Thinkin' Thoed-- song starts off with some talkin. The song has a good beat that you can nod ya head to. Both Paul Wall and Chamillionaire come up with some clever lyrics on this song. They even rap about hearing from the major labels on their answering machine and erasing the message. Another tight song.
4. Skit
5. Falsifying-- the song starts off with another head nodding beat for the first 40 seconds or so before Chamillionaire starts rappin. The song is about fake rappers who rap about stuff that they don't know about. Like Paul Wall says "ya'll faker than Lee Press-Ons". This is a very tight song.
6. U Owe Me-- I ain't really feeling the beat on this song but Chamillionaire and Paul Wall lay down some tight verse. They rappin about gettin their money that is owed to them. Nice song.
7. Skit
8. The Other Day-- now this song got a nice beat and Paul Wall flows along to it pretty well. Another tight song.
9. Game Over-- this song got a nice tempo to it. Chamillionaire drops some verses that some artists would kill for in a freestyle session. I really like this song here.
10. I Wanna Get-- this song is all right. Chamillionaire and Paul Wall are trying to let the ladies know that they want to get sexual with them. Nothing special about this one.
11. Balla Talk II-- this song got a really tight beat. Paul Wall starts it off and brings some tight lyrics to the mic. Chamillionaire also comes tight on the mic. Good song.
12. Go Grind-- this song is telling people that they gotta go hustle and grind if they wanna make that money. Basically tellin everyone that they made it with no radio play and just doing their thing on the Houston underground.
13. Skit
14. Luv N My Life-- this song starts off like one of the Hot Boys song the way Paul Wall and Chamillionaire trade bars. They basically rappin about how they love their lifestyle now and how it changed their style of rap. This is a more uptempo song.
15. U Already Know-- I ain't feelin the beat on this one. This song is about the block being hot and how you can tell when something is about to go down. I ain't really feeling this song.
16. Play Dirty-- this song got a nice beat to it. Paul Wall sounds mediocre on his verse. The song gets better once you get past his verse though and it ends up being a pretty good song.
17. Outro
Overall, the production is very solid. Chamillionaire and Paul Wall both come up with some clever ass lyrics that sound like freestyles. In fact, they may be freestyles from old albums but I haven't heard them before. This was my first time to listen to one of their albums and I was pretty impressed. I didn't grow up listening to Swishahouse or the Houston underground rap so I really didn't know what to expect. I'll definitely check out their next release based on this one. Only negative I had about this album was that it was a very short album compared to what we usually see. The hooks being sung on every song started to get on my nerves toward the end but overall, this is a solid album.
