Thug Holiday (Edited) Review

07/13/2005 7:46 AM, AMG


Even after releasing more than an album each year since 1997, Trick Daddy kept up the quality control with 2002s Thug Holiday. The production's a bit amateurish, and a bit skeletal in places, but the South's most consistent rapper still has a lot to offer, especially when he gets together with Cee-Lo from Goodie Mob and Big Boi from OutKast on "In da Wind." The title track is a bit too dramatic from such a usually enjoyable hip-hop name, but great party tracks like "Play No Games" and "All I Need" more than make up for a few half-baked message tracks. [The album's also available in this clean version.] ~ John Bush, All Music Guide
