Another in a series of Crunk and Disorderly compilations from TVT Records, Crunk Hits features 18 of the crunkest commercial singles of the preceding few years. Some of these songs were huge hits, like Usher's "Yeah!," Lil Jon's "Get Low," Chingy's "Right Thurr," Ciara's "Goodies," and Juvenile's "Slow Motion." Others, like Killer Mike's "A.D.I.D.A.S." and Jacki-O's "Nookie (Real Good)," weren't really hits, at least not on the same scale, but they were commercial singles and fit in well stylistically with the actual hits ...

Another in a series of Crunk and Disorderly compilations from TVT Records, Crunk Hits features 18 of the crunkest commercial singles of the preceding few years. Some of these songs were huge hits, like Usher's "Yeah!," Lil Jon's "Get Low," Chingy's "Right Thurr," Ciara's "Goodies," and Juvenile's "Slow Motion." Others, like Killer Mike's "A.D.I.D.A.S." and Jacki-O's "Nookie (Real Good)," weren't really hits, at least not on the same scale, but they were commercial singles and fit in well stylistically with the actual hits here. So the CD flows very well, since all of these songs share the same style -- club-oriented Dirty South -- and many share the same producer: the King of Crunk, Lil Jon. The only problem is, this CD was released in time for the 2005 holiday season, yet every single song here dates between 2002 and 2004. In other words, these songs are all at least a year old, if not a couple. And like most club music, these songs aren't nearly as exciting years later as they were upon their release, especially since between 2002 and 2004 this was such a burgeoning style of music. By late 2005, however, the so-called crunk style had become increasingly generic; compilations like this being a case in point. Crunk Hits may be out of date, its "hits" more than a little played out by this CD's late-2005 release, yet even so, it's hard to deny the grade-A quality of the music featured here. In particular, Crunk Hits will appeal to new fans of the style, listeners who missed these songs on the first go-round, and also to file sharers who have nth-generation MP3s of these songs on their personal hard drives and would like to finally get CD-quality versions at a cheap price. [TVT released a clean edition that does its best to tone down the abundance of profanity on display here. After all, they call it "Dirty" South for a reason, you know.] ~ Jason Birchmeier, Rovi
