EVERYONE Have NONE of you heard the pre-album mixtape for this? It was called New South and it's not the one you can get on iTunes which is some random Greg Street compilation. It's a 19 track affair entirely produced by Timbaland with mostly Bubba but also "the Muddkatz" - Duddy Ken, Attitude, RIcky Rucker, Kiley Dean, Petey Pablo and it's all really damn good. All originals except for 'In the Mudd' which is a remix of In da Club by 50.
You can hear it for free here - http://grooveshark.com/#!/playlist/DJ+Enuff+and+Timbaland+Present+Bubba+Sparxxx+and+The+Mudd+Katz+New+South+The+Album+B4+The+Album/66065631 - but I will find a way to get a copy to y'all if you want. I don't know where I originally got it.

entirely produced by timbo?

"Band Leader" is pretty cool. The first few tracks sounded awfully similar production-wise, but for a pre-album mixtape, what can you expect, I guess.

his percussion/drums still knock harder than anyone else's when he tries tho, as "tell me ya wit it" attests to

awesome farty horns that almost sound like spongy, squishy synths on "tell me about the south"... and operatic background OOHHHOOOOHHHS!

lol @ timbo's "damn how long is this song?" at the BEGINNING of the 3-minute "that's him" and the track's made of these really short three-note guitar licks, stays outta the way of the rapping but they're catchy on their own

this isn't from now - it's from back in the day. right before deliverance came out in 2003.

but if you haven't heard deliverance, you should be rest assured that it's like this but most of the time even better.

― heiswagger (rennavate), Saturday, 11 August 2012 00:56 (eleven years ago) link

― heiswagger (rennavate), Saturday, 11 August 2012 00:57 (eleven years ago) link
