In the tradition of Nelly's St. Lunatics and Eminem's D12, Atlanta's favorite rapper Ludacris has marshaled his forces to oversee the release of an album featuring his own crew Disturbing Tha Piece. Though he's credited as a producer on GOLDEN GRAIN and appears as a guest on several tracks, Ludacris hasn't put this endeavor together for his own greater glory, but rather to present the distinctive talents of the five young rappers who make up Disturbing Tha Piece. That said, the styles and themes of Jay Cee, I-20, the colorfully named Tity Boi, and the rest of the crew, are not a million miles away from that of their mentor. As in the work of Ludacris, GOLDEN GRAIN offers a consistent mix of R&B/pop hooks propelling rhymes that achieve just the right mix of street-real gangsta scenarios and celebratory, sideways-grinning party manifestos.

Rolling Stone (10/02, p.69) - "...A sharp, witty commentary on rap excess..."

Q (01/03, p.116) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...Featuring liberal quantities of Ludacris's nimble lexicon and a woozy Southern feel..."
