Dont Finish Yo Statement....

"Most people have trouble getting into Field Mob because of their unorthodox style and 'go against the grain' method. But I'm here to tell ya once you get into the Mob theres no getting out. You will be hooked. Two extremely talented southern MC's, the best production ( Jazze Pha and ET3 & Organized Noize), with something different to say."I'm Ready To Flee to a Better Place" So what really begins the album of rap duo Field Mob; consisting of Boondox Blax and Kalage aka Smoke and Shawn Jay. A symbolic piece from the perspective of a slave, the Narrative 'Nothing To Lose', produced by the ever creative ET3 production team, is the type of substance most rap records lack. Mid-record they flip it into a modern version of the same situation. This one track makes the album a must have. So continues this metaphor on "Don't Want No Problems" which discusses racism in a rather weird way by way of a bar fight. And then once again they flip it midrecord and tells it how it is straight up. The music that Field Mob produce is a perfected craft. They'll say something in a record but is that really what they mean? No doubt 'From Da Roota To Tha Toota' is a political album, you just have to do more thinking to digest the message.The album does have the lighthearted tracks that Field Mob are most noted for such as the first single "Sick Of Being Lonely", and they display their off the wall styles in a more accessible way. Their countrified twang, stop and go flow, speed it up slow it down, flip knowledge dumb it down...at the same time. It's just unique. Unexplainable. "Where R U Going' feat. soulbaby Joi, has the lady asking the boy where he going and can she go too. He can't leave the house and he's trying to get out. But what is the song really about? Is it really about the boy as a nobody in the beginning blowing up being a star and now people who told him no in the beginning want in now? Maybe, Maybe not.It's Hell is a more straightforward song about the trials and tribulations of life, wanting a better life and what not. "Haters" is just what the title indicates, a song about hating. "Hit It For Free" is the opus of the album. It has an incredible beat and melody...Shawn Jay and Smoke kill each of their verses, the chorus is amazing, and Mr. Kane is tight on the singing tip. The most soulful song on the album is 'All I Know' featuring Cee-Lo. This song appeared on Greg Street's 6' O'clock compilation in 2001, showing classics never age. Shawn Jay just drops knowledge on the track and the Jazze Pha beat is phenomenal. "Sister Samantha from Atlanta, can't even finish her prayer, worried about Sister Martha hair, always worried bout what Sista Martha wear, did she walk or did she ride the Marta there?, It don't matter At least Sister Martha there".And so ends this incredible album. This is one of those albums that just makes you say ahhhh. Field Mob provides an entertaining listen with loads of content and substance. An album that makes you think. From Da Roota To Tha Toota touches every subject you can imagine, even gansgsta stuff, but it's so subtle and enjoyable. They won't waste anything; time, oppurtunity to convey a message, make hits, etc. etc. and refuse to take anything for granted. This album is a must have masterpiece."
Very Unique- not for everyone

"Personally I really enjoyed this CD. It has a couple of really Hilarious Skits, Including one where they talk about cooking crack on a george forman grill. However they talk very kuntry and this may stop some from enjoying the cd. If U Like their Single Sick Of Being Lonley then i recommend purchesing the cd.If not then you should try and go somewhere where you can listen to it before purchasing it. Hope I Have Helped"
Keep doing ya' thing. Damn what these hataz say

"I think these boys got the skills to hang with best of them. From track 1 to 15, I give it an "A+". I also so believe that everybody got their on way of telling the world how they see it, that's why I don't disrespect anyone by saying they wack. And for you "northerners", remember, we can't live your life and yall can't live ours. If we (the south) were doing the same things you (eastcoast/westcoast) all were doing then we would be followers and perhaps not running the rap/hip-hop game right now. Just go turn on your radio young pimpin' and let me know what you hear. Look, I'ma' just be real with yall, you don't have to bump this but please respect it."
