Bobby V - Gotta Get That Money (Freestyle)
Artist: Bobby V
Featuring: CyHi The Prynce
Producer: DJ Yella
Album: 60 More Minutes Mixtape
Label: Blue Kolla Dreams/Capitol
Released in ‘94 as the second single off the Bone Brothers’ debut set, Foe the Love of $ may be the smoothest, most sensual ode to the Almighty Dollar ever recorded; thus it could hardly be a better fit for Bobby V.‘s brand new freestyle, which finds the R&B mainstay waxing poetic about his first and second loves: women and currency. Over DJ Yella‘s blissed-out boardwork, rendered even silkier by some added guitar riffs, the Blu Kolla dreamer gives us his take on Hova‘s Girls (“Got a girl named Cheryl at American Apparel…”), before turning to the topic of dollars, pesos, yen, euros… you get the picture. G.O.O.D. signee Cyhi Da Prynce takes over on the back, expressing his own affection for the Jacksons and Benjamins in a pungent guest 16: “I gotta make a profit, when I’m sellin’ onions / Now I’m stackin’ chips, so all I smell is Funyuns.” While 60 More Minutes has yet to receive a solid release date, those who enjoyed this high-rolling freestyle can find more new Bobby V material on the singer’s Fly on the Wall LP, scheduled to hit stores in March.

This doesn't compare to the original Bone Thugs version, which after hearing it reminded me how much I miss the days of original BTNH material, and I am not sold on the idea of Bobby going in this direction musically before the release of an album that will sound nothing like this, but its a solid listen. If for nothing else besides another Cyhi 16.

Bobby V remaking a BTNH classic....nooo! Not a huge fan of this, but I gotta admit Cyhi perfected his verse. I'm a little disappointed with Bobby V the last year or so. How many people were expecting him to blow up after being on C3 and you could argue he digressed. This wasn't a very good look but I'll still check the album out.

CyHI killed this. 3 stars for delivering on a classic beat. Bobby V just makes it feel too radio.

I dig Bobby V, and Cyhi did well, but some things are just better left untouched. In the end, honestly, this really only made me want to listen to the original.

How amny times must i say this.... Put CyHi on your joint, and it instantly gets way better.
Im really disappoint that they did this.... to remake the BTNH classic isnt the right path to take. The only good in this whole record is CyHi. |
