Ludacris - F5 (Furiously Dangerous)
Artist: Ludacris
Featuring: Slaughterhouse
Producer: Mr. Porter
Album: Fast Five Soundtrack
Label: DTP/Def Jam
Scheduled to hit U.S. theaters on the 29th, the fifth entry in the Fast and the Furious franchise promises to be the fastest and most furious yet. OK, to keep it one-hundred, I haven’t seen a single F&F flick… but, hey, the poster looks pretty cool. And more to the point, any film that inspires the kinds of high-velocity rhymes found on standout soundtrack inclusion F5 (Furiously Dangerous) is a blockbuster in my book. Here, a scorching synth-percussion beat by Mr. Porter sets the mood for rhymes from five of the finest flows in the industry. Ludacris heads off the pack, lacing the opener with his trademark racy wit (“Lot of green with a yellow complexion / women call me the Green Bay Packer”). Slaughterhouse cohorts Royce, Budden, Joell and Crook pick up right where Luda leaves off, peeling out one by one to to showcase their most devastating flows. Singer Claret Jai rounds out the lineup, contributing the most piercing chorus vocals this side of Rebecca Black’s Friday – whether her unique approach adds to the catchiness or derails the cut, I leave for you to decide. In any case, those digging it can find F5 and much more on the movie’s soundtrack LP, due out May 5.

Only 2 stars because this line-up can't really fail, can they?

Atrocious hook, honestly. Luda's verse is way too short and Joell was really slacking. Overall, this is the most disappointing track I've heard all year. With Luda and Slaughterhouse, I expect far far more.
On a sidenote, Budden stole the show here (his sickest flow ever). |

P.S. I can honestly say, as a huge Luda fan who owns all of his albums, this won't make it onto my iPod--one of the worst tracks (as a guest feature or solo) of his career.

I knew from the annoying beginning that I was gonna hate this. It got better, but I got bored.

If Ludacris went on his killer flow thang, he'd absolutely murk this along with all members of Slaughterhouse. That said, Joe Budden is FIRE!
Remove this @*#$! Claret Jai for someone who can actually sing (sit down, Rebecca Black), and you've got yourselves a banger. |

Pretty good track, but that girl singing in an entirely too high pitched voice almost ruins it. Ludacris got killed by the members of Slaughterhouse, honestly.

I don't really like Luda on this track. Slaughterhouse did well as usual. The chorus is horrible.

Everyone in Slaughterhouse except Joell (can't think of anything nice to say lol) came hard and I agree, Budden did steal the show on this track. I don't get how this is a Luda song but he spit the least bars...not feeling the hook at all.
Sick beat 3.5 but rounding down because of the hook |

World Class Wreckin' Cru' anyone? 1 star for the song and a star for each of the artists/group because I respect Ludacris and Slaughterhouse...

it's a nice track. will feature well with the movie as well. production isn't really my fav but the rapping portion was just straight fire throughout. only 4stars because of the hook.

With all the talent on this record you'd hope for better... which is why it makes total sense that the placement for this song is a soundtrack and not a proper album release from either artist.

You can really tell this is a soundtrack song, that's why I can give it a 3. The beat isn't bad, the girl almost ruins it, but I can't hate the whole track...

many of you do not know why this track was made, it was made for FAST 5, which on the contrary fits perfectly with this tune
Yes i live in the UK & yes its a decent movie worth a shout at watching but also make sure you watch the last scene after the end credits ;) For Fast & Furious Fan you really need to watch that scene ;) |

Not bad for a soundtrack. I'm not feeling the hook. It just got annoying after the second time around. The artists featured are no doubt awesome, but This track didn't really show it. It was Okay.

Hook was weak, Ludacris' verse could have been harder, I've heard him spit better lyrical verses and when you spitting with Slaughterhouse you gotta up it. Best verses in order
Joe Budden Crooked I Royce Joell Luda |

Considering the soundtrack this is on I don't see a problem with the track overall. I don't care for the production or the hook. Budden's did his thing but all these guys are lyrical heavyweights in their own way- this is what happens when a tracks fails to meet demand.

ok damn slaughterhouse on a pop tack wow. its cool but it would be better if they was on a hard hitting hiphop beat or early 90 beat. The hook sucks but overall the song is ok. Who is the girl. She is really not needed

You know, I really respect the musical taste/opinion of the booth members. Most of the time. But once in awhile you guys love to hate for no apparent reason. Is this the best song ever? No. Not by a long shot. But the beat alone earns it 3 stars. The lyrics? Best ever? No. But it adds an extra star to the score. it's a banger. i roll my windows done while blasting this shit. Everyone on the street turns their heads and gives me the nod. Score.

The lady who did the hook totally ruined the song. I heard a snippet on hotnewhiphop but that was just the Ludacris and Joe Budden verses. If they get rid of the lady who does the hook, this song would be so much better.

I'll say what everyone else said, the hook makes my ears bleed. Who thought her voice was acceptable for this? Luda was weak on this one, which almost never happens.
