ON WAX FOR THE FIRST TIME! PRESSED ON MONEY-COLORED VINYL!
After the release of UGK's third studio album, the wildly influential, and
critically acclaimed Southern hip-hop classic Ridin' Dirty, the duo of
rapper Bun B and rapper/producer Pimp C took a five-year hiatus from
releasing albums. This is not to say that the pair didn't keep busy
during their time away from putting out records; if anything some of
their highest profile appearances occurred during this period. Through
guest slots on now iconic tracks like Three Six Mafia's “Sippin' On
Some Syrup”, and Jay-Z's Billboard smash “Big Pimpin'” UGK
managed to greatly increase their profile, and build even greater
anticipation for a fourth studio album.
This album, titled Dirty Money, would arrive in November of 2001, after
having been shelved by their label Jive Records since 1998. Across 14
tracks of syrup-soaked, drawling Southern hip-hop tracks, UGK
stretched their creative chops and showed that in the five years since
Ridin' Dirty they hadn't lost their step in the slightest. Bun B's and
Pimp C's rhymes were free-wheeling, clever, and irreverent as they had
ever been, while the production was classic Texas rap, courtesy of
Pimp C and Southern hip-hop legend N.O. Joe, who shared production
duties. Guest contributions from Juicy J & DJ Paul of Three Six Mafia,
Big Gipp of Goodie Mob, Too $hort, Devin The Dude, and more helped
bolster the duo's codeine-drenched witticisms, over samples from the
likes of BB King, Barry White, and The Staple Singers among others.
Riding on UGK's newfound mainstream fortunes, Dirty Money
managed a remarkable #19 debut on the Billboard 200 chart, as well as
reaching #2 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. In spite of this, Jive
failed to capitalize on the attention the duo was receiving; with a lack of
promotion and marketing behind it the record left just as quickly as
it had arrived. We at Get On Down haven't forgotten this album's
greatness though; we now present to you this color vinyl reissue of
Dirty Money, an under-appreciated and oft-forgotten relic of Southern
hip-hop, one that has never before been committed to wax. |
