A Banger To Ride To

There's nothing quite like getting into your scraper on a sunny day and just blasting a banger track with the windows down. Not a song that you'd want to dance to, but one that you would lean your seat back to and try to look hard. After a year of gimmicky, goofy rap we're finally getting a chance to relive those glory days again. Michigan's own Bake Up Boyz give some hope into bringing back some ghetto to the game. The single, Guccis On My Feet, off their Spring 2008 album, Fresh Out Da Kitchen, is an old school street banger that mixes being ghetto and flossed out at the same time. The bass heavy beat is perfect to make your car rattle down the street and the lyrics are somewhat reminiscent of the late 90s Cash Money songs. The only problem with the song is that I still don't understand the obsession with Gucci. In my mind it's just a brand made for Chavs who can't dance and just creep in the back of a club. Another track off the album is, Now I Can Do That (Featuring Jim Jones). Sadly, Jim Jones has the innate ability to kill any new group, but hopefully the Bake Up Boyz can survive the Jim Jones Effect and put out a hot album, which drops Spring 2008.
