Trick Daddy
Thugs Are Us
Thug Are Us is an extension from Trick's previous successes. Entertaining listeners with his version of sexual innuendo, government exploitation and professing his pimp vibrato. The noticeable new formula in the arsenal of Trick Daddy would be his talented entourage, his Slip-N-Slide crew consisting of: Deuce Poppi, Trina, Tre + 6 and Kase. This new release is a mere showcase of his surrounding core performers. Trick Daddy is widely obscure throughout the album; however it does not present a downfall to his recent release. The Slip-N-Slide faithful highlight their release with their signature booty shaking sound and Dirty South delivery. Beating up the mic, with some sweat laden club cuts, like the hit single Take It to Da House and the remix to the booty music anthem Pull Over.
Beyond the obvious sex infested liaisons, a few intriguing subjects appear throughout album. The track to keep a wrap on would be I'm a Thug which features a chorus line of adolescent choir members, similar to R. Kelly's I Wish.
To every experimental album there is always a noticeable downside. This features lackluster tracks like Noodle and 99 Problems that fall short to capture the same intensity of other cuts of the album. In addition, the intro and skits are beyond pathetic to say the least. This leads me to believe that the production was not on point in all directions. Add the fact that Trick Daddy merely cameos his own album, this makes for a rather odd supposed solo release. If you're enticed by sexual references and bass music, Thug Are Us should find its way into your immediate musical collection. Trick Daddy definitely displays a great ability to promote his crew and the progression of their talents.
