Better still, Webbie has earned a sense of monologue. 'Your shit is the cheapest, you might blow out your speakers/ Sound we blowin' and all, got warrants and all, done look down at the phone, I done missed a few calls/ Me and Boosie was thuggin', he was telling me something but I couldn't much hear.' Sound systems are just that, but at least he's at least made his material concerns immersive and earnest. Like Trick Daddy he tells you not only what he has, but why, honestly, he values it. Nothing revelatory, nothing too illuminating, just lovely, reasonable olive branches served for a post-Imus rap world. He provides the steady drawl, newcomer Lil' Phat bricks a few lines ('She cook/ She clean/ She smell like onion ring'- whatever works, brah) and Boosie steals away the final verse in a whorl of giddy shrieks. Webbie dishes out acclaim for his vision of full-fledged women- 'She ain't waitin' for no man to take care of her/ She'd rather go to work and pay the bills on schedule'- on a barking, two-tone bubble beat. It shows on 'Independent', the album's lead single and one of the year's most refreshing jams. Webbie certainly sounds like he's done some growing up since his debut. Webbie plods where Boosie yelps he extends his drawl where Boosie snips his lines into chain-link patterns he wrestles with adulthood while Boosie plays Peter Pan.įitting for an album that documents a perhaps unwilling crawl to maturity, Savage Life 2 succeeds when it sticks to the specific, discrete, and (relatively) adult. Their duo album, 2005's Gangsta Muzik, collaborations across Webbie's debut Savage Life and Boosie's Bad Azz, and their obvious leadership roles on Trill's label album Survival of The Fittest pegged him as the Juvenile to Boosie's Wayne.

Since his first appearances for Trill he's been paired with Boosie. Executive producers Turk & Mel are as invisible as Baby's silent partner and brother, Cash Money co-owner Slim Williams. Lil' Boosie, though he's been rapping for as long as anyone in Cash Money, still scans like a mid-shelf Lil Wayne: a temperamental, ecstatic, vowel-chain loving whelp.
