Over a decade and a half later, how do we feel about Master P's "Ghetto D" album?

[SouljaVoy]

this is also the goat south album.

as well as the south's chronic.

When nikkas who aint from the south speak on south shyt.

 

[mobbinfms]

Had to bring this thread back up, since I'm gonna be bangin ghetto d heavy again. Last summer (aside from nipsey hussles shyt) I also listened to a lot of this album, just like the year before it. Still knocks and there are some classics on here that I can't get tired of..
What y'all think ? Anyone here still bumpin it ??

3 mic album. Forgettable.

 

[kingofnyc]

i could never understand why they alwayz compared this ghetto D to juve 400 degreez



1 was a weed plate
the other was a all time classic

 

[OHSNAP!]

Not my favorite No Limit album (prefer Tru 2 Da Game, Life Or Death, WW III, TOIEF and two or three more)

Burbons & Lacs is one of the biggest anthems to bump in your ride

Pass Me Da Green is still the shyt

 

[feelosofer]

I mean musically, this isn't a classic album, hell it's not even Master P's best album (Ice Cream Man). But I can't deny the impact, it was a huge hit, it turned heads and even in Jersey made a lot of cat's bend their ear for traditional Southern music, and for as much as Cash money fans wouldn't want to admit, it was P's run that set the template for Cash Money to come through and take over the East Coast. So I suppose you could say it was a classic off the strength of the impact it made.

 

[bangbreh]

the album that broke the south thru.

Actin like kast and goodie mob didn't exist.
Nobody takes P music serious, shyt is trash.

 

[iceberg_is_on_fire]

All three Miller boys got classics on their resume as well as TRU to the Game.

I will never not laugh at this verse.

Aww HOLD UP!!!, WAIT A MINUTE!!!
Lil mama done got me bent
[What] the fukk you mean, where I was?, who I was with?
And where the fukk I went?
bytch get beside yoself, you probably WOULD
If I left ya',but I ain't gon put you on no pedestal, jus cause
I hit you with that pressure
You smokin' my weed ridin' my ride
I'm TRYIN' TO KEEP IT REAL
I can’t seem to satisfy this bytch
She trippin' bout' her BILLS!!!
Her rent ain't paid, but she got her hair done
This bytch gotta be stopped!!!
Ho thinks she got it made, gon' ride my pockets to the top
But oh no, you bytch, you
I ain't responsible, for what that other nikka did to you
[Don't] give a fukk what that nikka bought you
Give a fukk bout' what you and another nikka been through
Get the fukk out my face, ya' fam too,stop runnin'
Behind my G dues, can't wait to see that nikka that got
Acting like that cause that ass whoopin' been due
It's a nikka like that, that make it hard
For me and the rest of my nikkas
Meeting these tramps and treat em like queens
SHE GETTIN' THE BEST'A YOU nikka!!!
Lettin' dem' hoes sit on they ass, and come up off yo' hard work
This Mystikal, Master P, Fiend and Silkk
NOT NO CAPTAIN KIRK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Agreed.... and I've seen a lot of weed smoked on 400 Degrees while listening to Burbons and Lacs

Lets keep it Real.........

Ghetto D was NOT even the best rap album out of New Orleans in 1997

All on U vol 2 > Ghetto D

That real street shyt......






Baby Gangsta motherfukker -- fake nikka head bussa
If I don't know ya dont trust ya
If I don't trust ya then fukk ya
Keep my finger on the trigga.. gotta think on the next nikka
Out to have thangs I hustle hard for 6 figures
Raised up thugged out, keep the fukkin gauge out
Ho shyt done played out ya whole posse laid out
Birds and money that's all that excite me
fukk bytches I'm bout money that's all that entice me
President lover, undercover, ain't another like me
You get a ki half price from Columbia fukkin with B
Believe it's just in me to be a real soldier
Gats I load, slip you dont value what's on ya shoulder
Now I done told ya -- the streets is real all the time
Gotta survive the game nikka I'mma die for mine
I ain't lyin.. I do what the fukk I gotta do
Shoot who I gotta shoot if ya outside my crew
Numbers 2-2-6, lotta buster playa hate it
Takin off like Delta cause Manny Fresh can't be faded
I'm a young nikka.. hard nikka.. street nikka
Tryna get on my feet I creep you sleep six feet deep
I'm dangerous.. I slang raw I don't cut it
If I profit or not, as long as ya loaded then fukk it
Yo head is a banana, squeal and get peeled
Feel what come out my grill it's a must I keep it real nikka


fukk all that assholin nikka lets beef
Remember I'm the one that said 'take it to the streets'
Twerk somthin, handle up nikka, shake somthin
Got a K with a drum -- and I'm ready to spray somthin
Lay it down.. make the wrong move.. checkmate
Think again.. you sendin peace messages, it's too late
Tryin to recuperate.. after we left ya in the dust
Big Boy can't fukk with us retaliation is a must
Baby Gangsta, grim reaper, death bringer
Assault rifle banger.. got a itchy trigger finger
I let em hang-a....what you nikkas say you gon do me,do it man
Underestimate in this war you gon lose it man
Got a AR... 15 I mean
D.O.A when I hit the scene nahmean?
It's a bust-back thang nikka grab yo shyt
I come behind limo tint with the optimo lit
Bust open the 911, let me take my hit
Y'all done started, you can't quit
I'm rushin with a monster blitz
Lights out like the eclipse, rookies tryin to battle us
Cockin and be bout poppin nikka its time to hanlde up


All these.. jive nikkas wan rep on me
Knowin they ain't bout to step cross Martin Luther King
All these other initials besides U.P.T, and H.B. --
Don't mean nothin to the B.G
I'm ready to get down and dirty bout my place in this biz
Let a nikka take me down after all this time? Shiiiit
I'm a uptown shiner, bout takin what's mine-a
Used to spin bins in camerys and pathfinders
That's just to remind you, nikkas that tryin to
Fade lil doogie slip nikka ill down you
Me and my rounds come through set trippin
Gettin it how we live and, takin respect ain't given
50 rounds out each assault rifle we deliverin
Scary motha fukkaz...on ya block in each ya shiverin
fukkin with the B.G., Cash Money goin broke
Puttin change on nikkas brains behind me

Cash money didn't have the reach at the time though that no limit had...I didn't hear this album until late 98

P was all over the place when ghetto d dropped...distro was lovely.

But that bg vol 2 is

 

[Edub]

No and No. And you're clearly NOT from the south to make this statement.

This album was the culmination of P's commercial success. But by no means is it the GOAT southern album.

Most ridiculous reach I've ever heard...dude just bypassed outkast ti scarface ghetto boys UGK 8ball mjg and every other legend to come out the south....and said p out crafted em' all, I'm

 

[jimihendrixheadband]

This is a great album. P was spitting alot of game on this shyt. He dropped alot of street jewels

 

[1-8-7-Skillz]

stop hatin is still my fav joint along with bourbons & lacs...
those two always get me nostalgic as fukk

 

[Wacky D]

again i reiterate.

goat south album. 400 degreez is the only legit contender in my book.

those 2 albums, i can put in a legit top 20 or at least top 25 goat albums list. cant say the same for the local yocals some of yall try to prop up.

This is a great album. P was spitting alot of game on this shyt. He dropped alot of street jewels

THIS.

and hustler....err entrepreneur jewels in general even if some cant stomach the street.

 

[H. Selassie]

Lol, did this nikka really say "Southern Chronic"?

Lames who don't know shyt about the South need to shut the fukk up

 

[NatiboyB]

Classic another no limit album in my life too 25.
