![]() He also had that surprise concert at Clark Atlanta University where they wouldn't let him curse. ![]() He was taken off the Pepsi contract earlier this year and one of his concerts was cancelled due to his `explicit lyrics'. Lyrically adept at talking about women and throwing game, and equally adept at dropping some fire for the underground. He has a different flow on each song and accentuates his WORDS to let you know he has confidence in his rhymes. Ludacris has the personality and charisma that makes him instantly likable. After his earlier success with DTP leading the way on the 2 Fast 2 Furious soundtrack and the single `Act A Fool', Ludacris doesn't disappoint. ![]() Ludacris, the ATL DJ turned rap phenomenon, drops his third highly anticipated album `Chicken & Beer'. He then switches to seduction of the most swaggering brand on the hook-laden, dance-floor bound "Stand Up." As with Eminem, the way he allows his goofiness to take sway, it's easy to forget his similarly supreme ability as a wordsmith, but this forgotten secret to his success is evident throughout CHICKEN & BEER, another appealing record from the Dirty South icon. In "Southern Fried Intro," he unabashedly admits to throwing all styles, even pop, into his musical stew, before firing the full-out assault of "Blow It Out," a measured, righteous, anthemic response to his doubters and detractors, including an on-point slap at talk show host Bill O'Reilly over their much-chronicled Pepsi flap. ![]() ![]() Description : Personnel includes: Ludacris, Shawnna, 8 Ball, MJG, Carl Thomas, Lil' Flip, Lil' Fate, Snoop Dogg, Chingy, I-20, Tity Boi, Dolla Boi."Stand Up" was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Male Rap Solo Performance.In the year leading up to the release of his third disc, CHICKEN & BEER, Ludacris' distinguished drawl could be heard all over the radio on commanding guest appearance after guest appearance, most notably on Missy Elliott's smash "Gossip Folks." Not that he needed any more airplay-his first two major releases already had the Georgian rapper well established as one of the most accomplished Dirty South crossover acts.CHICKEN & BEER is an apt title for the ravenously hungry record with few moments of sobriety, as Ludacris unleashes his most gentle of furies. ![]()
