Pretty much ▀█████▄ ▄█████▀ ▀▄▄ consecutively. Undeniably consistently. ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄ Ů█████ Ů█▓ Not many rappers can claim that they ▓█Ţ █████Ţ █████Ţ ███Ţ are about to release their 9th album Ů███ Ů█████ ▀█████▄ ▓██▓ in a decade, which makes 8 Ball and ▓██▓ ▄█████▀ ▀▀███████▀ MJG's forthcoming album, Living Legends ▀█████████ ▀▀██▄ (Bad Boy Records), a rarity and the title ▄██▀▀███ ▀ ▄ ▄▄▄▄▄ Ů██▓ all the more fitting. ▓██Ţ ████▄ ▄█Ţ ▀ ▀▀███▄ ▄▓▓█▓Ţ Ů▓█▓▓▄ ▀███████▀ Ů███Ţ▄█████▀ 8 Ball and MJG are rap giants and if the ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀ ▄ ▄███▄█████▀ South were it's own country, they would be ▀█████▄ ▀▀███▀██████▀ ▀▄▄ national treasures. For starters, they ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄ Ů█████ Ů█▓ were the first rap act from Memphis to ▓█Ţ █████Ţ █████Ţ ███Ţ go platinum and one of the first in Ů███ Ů█████ ▀█████▄ ▓██▓ the region to attain nationwide ▓██▓ ▄█████▀ ▀▀███████▀ success. In their hometown of Memphis, ▀███████▀▓▄▄▄ ▄▄▄ ▀▀██▄ TN, they have successfully accelerated ▄██▀▀■ ▀████▄ ▄████▀▀▀▄ Ů██▓ the pace at which rap fans breathe, ▓██Ţ ŮŢ Ů████ Ů████Ţ ▄▄▓▓█▓Ţ injecting their faces and trademark Ů▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀ ▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀ style into the veins of America's ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀ ▀▀███▀▄█████▀ heartland. The magnitude of their sound is ▀█████▄ ▄█████▀ ▀▄▄ so far reaching it has rocked the block ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄ Ů█████ Ů█▓ in cities as far North as Brooklyn, NY ▓█Ţ █████Ţ █████Ţ ███Ţ and as far West as Compton, CA making Ů███ Ů█████ ▀█████▄ ▓██▓ artists like Mobb Deep and DJ Quick, ▓██▓ ▄█████▀ ▀▀███████▀ Nelly and Ludacris fans for life. In ▀█████████ ▀▀██▄ fact, if you ask the average rapper or ▄██▀▀███ ▀ ▄ ▄▄▄▄▄ Ů██▓ the average fan, most of them will tell ▓██Ţ ████▄ ▄█Ţ ▀ ▀▀███▄ ▄▓▓█▓Ţ you the same thing: The first Southern Ů▓█▓▓▄ ▀███████▀ Ů███Ţ▄█████▀ rap records that captivated them and ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀ ▄ ▄███▄█████▀ changed their lives forever were 8 Ball ▀█████▄ ▀▀███▀██████▀ ▀▄▄ and MJG. To put it blunt, 8 Ball and MJG ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄ Ů█████ Ů█▓ are your favorite rap group's favorite ▓█Ţ █████Ţ █████Ţ ███Ţ rap group. Ů███ Ů█████ ▀█████▄ ▓██▓ ▓██▓ ▄█████▀ ▀▀███████▀ 8 Ball puts it this way, "The difference ▀███████▀▓▄▄▄ ▄▄▄ ▀▀██▄ between us and the other groups people ▄██▀▀■ ▀████▄ ▄████▀▀▀▄ Ů██▓ would compare us with is that those ▓██Ţ ŮŢ Ů████ Ů████Ţ ▄▄▓▓█▓Ţ groups grew up on us," Ů▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀ ▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀ ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀ ▀▀███▀▄█████▀ After signing the legends, an Executive at ▀█████▄ ▄█████▀ ▀▄▄ Bad Boy explained, "8 Ball and MJG are ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄ Ů█████ Ů█▓ to down South what Biggie was to New ▓█Ţ █████Ţ █████Ţ ███Ţ York and what Tupac was to the West Ů███ Ů█████ ▀█████▄ ▓██▓ Coast." Indeed, Living Legends marks ▓██▓ ▄█████▀ ▀▀███████▀ the merging of two powerhouses in the ▀█████████ ▀▀██▄ industry: Bad Boy Records and 8 Ball and ▄██▀▀███ ▀ ▄ ▄▄▄▄▄ Ů██▓ MJG. Both highly visible, both highly ▓██Ţ ████▄ ▄█Ţ ▀ ▀▀███▄ ▄▓▓█▓Ţ respected and both highly imitated in Ů▓█▓▓▄ ▀███████▀ Ů███Ţ▄█████▀ their parts of the world. Living ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀ ▄ ▄███▄█████▀ Legends, is simply, a landmark album. ▀█████▄ ▀▀███▀██████▀ ▀▄▄ ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄ Ů█████ Ů█▓ Listening to the album you'll quickly ▓█Ţ █████Ţ █████Ţ ███Ţ understand that there are Southern Ů███ Ů█████ ▀█████▄ ▓██▓ anthems and then there's an 8 Ball and ▓██▓ ▄█████▀ ▀▀███████▀ MJG anthem. The first single, "You Don't ▀███████▀▓▄▄▄ ▄▄▄ ▀▀██▄ Want Drama." Is one of them. It's a ▄██▀▀■ ▀████▄ ▄████▀▀▀▄ Ů██▓ rambunctious, throw your hands up, party ▓██Ţ ŮŢ Ů████ Ů████Ţ ▄▄▓▓█▓Ţ starter with a hook the country will Ů▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀ ▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀ have memorized come springtime. No ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀ ▀▀███▀▄█████▀ matter what dance you do in your part of ▀█████▄ ▄█████▀ ▀▄▄ the country, you will want to do it with ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄ Ů█████ Ů█▓ all your might when doing it to this ▓█Ţ █████Ţ █████Ţ ███Ţ track. As MJG put it, "It's a get Ů███ Ů█████ ▀█████▄ ▓██▓ crunk, get buck, elbows, shoulder to ▓██▓ ▄█████▀ ▀▀███████▀ shoulder, crowding the dance floor, ▀█████████ ▀▀██▄ pushing song...even P. Diddy got rowdy on ▄██▀▀███ ▀ ▄ ▄▄▄▄▄ Ů██▓ the record." 8 Ball laughs as he recalls ▓██Ţ ████▄ ▄█Ţ ▀ ▀▀███▄ ▄▓▓█▓Ţ the first time Diddy heard the beat. Ů▓█▓▓▄ ▀███████▀ Ů███Ţ▄█████▀ "He was dancing off some South s**t. It ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀ ▄ ▄███▄█████▀ was a sight to see." Living Legends "space ▀█████▄ ▀▀███▀██████▀ ▀▄▄ age 4 eva" digital flourish make the ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄ Ů█████ Ů█▓ songs sound otherworldly, but still ▓█Ţ █████Ţ █████Ţ ███Ţ remains firmly planted in Southern Ů███ Ů█████ ▀█████▄ ▓██▓ soil thanks to premier producers like ▓██▓ ▄█████▀ ▀▀███████▀ Lil' Jon, Jazze Pha, David Banner and ▀███████▀▓▄▄▄ ▄▄▄ ▀▀██▄ Bad Boy beat-maker Stevie J., as well as ▄██▀▀■ ▀████▄ ▄████▀▀▀▄ Ů██▓ guest rappers like Ludacris and UGK's ▓██Ţ ŮŢ Ů████ Ů████Ţ ▄▄▓▓█▓Ţ Bun B. Ů▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀ ▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀ ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀ ▀▀███▀▄█████▀ Just as Memphis birthed the Blues, thanks ▀█████▄ ▄█████▀ ▀▄▄ to the foundation that 8 Ball and MJG ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄ Ů█████ Ů█▓ laid, it is also the birthplace of much ▓█Ţ █████Ţ █████Ţ ███Ţ of Southern-style hip-hop as we know Ů███ Ů█████ ▀█████▄ ▓██▓ it today. It was 8 Ball and MJG who ▓██▓ ▄█████▀ ▀▀███████▀ painted the blues on hip-hop, or hip-hop ▀█████████ ▀▀██▄ on the blues, and you can hear it in the ▄██▀▀███ ▀ ▄ ▄▄▄▄▄ Ů██▓ moody tracks like "Memphis City Blues," ▓██Ţ ████▄ ▄█Ţ ▀ ▀▀███▄ ▄▓▓█▓Ţ 8 Ball's favorite song on this album. Ů▓█▓▓▄ ▀███████▀ Ů███Ţ▄█████▀ Struggle is the driving force in any ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀ ▄ ▄███▄█████▀ ghetto in America, and even though their ▀█████▄ ▀▀███▀██████▀ ▀▄▄ success has allowed them to transcend ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄ Ů█████ Ů█▓ this to some degree, the aggression and ▓█Ţ █████Ţ █████Ţ ███Ţ the aggravation is still apparent in Ů███ Ů█████ ▀█████▄ ▓██▓ their unified voice. And, although the ▓██▓ ▄█████▀ ▀▀███████▀ South is mostly known for its ▀███████▀▓▄▄▄ ▄▄▄ ▀▀██▄ hospitality, "Don't Make" is nothing ▄██▀▀■ ▀████▄ ▄████▀▀▀▄ Ů██▓ short of haunting, menacing even, but ▓██Ţ ŮŢ Ů████ Ů████Ţ ▄▄▓▓█▓Ţ still enjoyable and excitable. It is a Ů▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀ ▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀ beast of a song with a monster track. ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀ ▀▀███▀▄█████▀ ▀█████▄ ▄█████▀ ▀▄▄ The mix of 8 Ball and MJG's individual ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄ Ů█████ Ů█▓ voices has made their sound one of the ▓█Ţ █████Ţ █████Ţ ███Ţ most sought-after in hip-hop. They Ů███ Ů█████ ▀█████▄ ▓██▓ both approach rapping the same: they ▓██▓ ▄█████▀ ▀▀███████▀ hear the music, inhabit the mood, and ▀█████████ ▀▀██▄ then construct their rhymes. MJG ▄██▀▀███ ▀ ▄ ▄▄▄▄▄ Ů██▓ describes it mystically, "The lyrics are ▓██Ţ ████▄ ▄█Ţ ▀ ▀▀███▄ ▄▓▓█▓Ţ born from the music. We let the spirit Ů▓█▓▓▄ ▀███████▀ Ů███Ţ▄█████▀ motivate the pen." as evident in "Hold ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀ ▄ ▄███▄█████▀ What You Got," where they wrote off the ▀█████▄ ▀▀███▀██████▀ ▀▄▄ Baptist gospel soul sound and flipped ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄ Ů█████ Ů█▓ into a song that MJG describes as ▓█Ţ █████Ţ █████Ţ ███Ţ "pimping goes to church." Ů███ Ů█████ ▀█████▄ ▓██▓ ▓██▓ ▄█████▀ ▀▀███████▀ On their previous solo endeavors 8 Ball ▀███████▀▓▄▄▄ ▄▄▄ ▀▀██▄ and MJG made their individuality known. ▄██▀▀■ ▀████▄ ▄████▀▀▀▄ Ů██▓ MJG revealed he was the more political ▓██Ţ ŮŢ Ů████ Ů████Ţ ▄▄▓▓█▓Ţ member on his 1997 album No More Glory Ů▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀ ▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀ (the album cover featured a burning ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀ ▀▀███▀▄█████▀ confederate flag). 8 Ball uncovered his ▀█████▄ ▄█████▀ ▀▄▄ preference for personal, confessional ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄ Ů█████ Ů█▓ rhymes on his 2001 CD Almost Famous. ▓█Ţ █████Ţ █████Ţ ███Ţ Through these releases and a few label Ů███ Ů█████ ▀█████▄ ▓██▓ changes, their union remains unbroken ▓██▓ ▄█████▀ ▀▀███████▀ hence the album title. ▀█████████ ▀▀██▄ ▄██▀▀███ ▀ ▄ ▄▄▄▄▄ Ů██▓ Together, 8 Ball and MJG are the ▓██Ţ ████▄ ▄█Ţ ▀ ▀▀███▄ ▄▓▓█▓Ţ necessary symmetry of two eyes, two Ů▓█▓▓▄ ▀███████▀ Ů███Ţ▄█████▀ arms--a unit born of the same hood. "We ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀ ▄ ▄███▄█████▀ grew up in a few blocks from each other. ▀█████▄ ▀▀███▀██████▀ ▀▄▄ That weighs more than anything that ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄ Ů█████ Ů█▓ could come between us. The friendship ▓█Ţ █████Ţ █████Ţ ███Ţ will be first," 8 Ball explains. "At Ů███ Ů█████ ▀█████▄ ▓██▓ the end of the day if I ain't got ▓██▓ ▄█████▀ ▀▀███████▀ nothing in the world but my underwear I ▀███████▀▓▄▄▄ ▄▄▄ ▀▀██▄ know that's my friend...that's what keeps ▄██▀▀■ ▀████▄ ▄████▀▀▀▄ Ů██▓ us together, where we come from." ▓██Ţ ŮŢ Ů████ Ů████Ţ ▄▄▓▓█▓Ţ Ů▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀ ▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀ ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀ ▀▀███▀▄█████▀ After the advance earlier this year, ▀█████▄ ▄█████▀ ▀▄▄ here's the retail version.
