Five solo artists and four groups -- in addition to drop-by guests
Jamie Foxx,
Stat Quo,
Rich Boy, and
Gangsta Boo -- make up the second
Disturbing tha Peace album. Keeping tabs on who you're hearing during most moments can be dizzying, and
DTP is only united by
Ludacris' presence and grooming, so it's not an easy album to follow. Like
Golden Grain, this does not live up to the standards of a
Ludacris solo album, but it has a few replayable tracks, such as
Ludacris and
Field Mob's rallying "Georgia" (with
Foxx doing his getting-tired-fast
Ray Charles), Norfclk's nasty
Needlz-produced "Put Ya Hands Up," and the underrated
Shawnna's low-slung "Gettin' Some."
Bobby V. and newcomer Shareefa bring the R&B, while
Lazyeye is a competent but average metal band that is given a bonus-track slot. ~ Andy Kellman
