After years of working with Eminem, D12 and the entire Shady family, Shady Record’s highest selling solo artist (minus Em of course), Obie Trice is now defiantly grinding on his own. As Obie Trice prepares this first non-Shady album, he’s released the “don’t call it a comeback” cut Got Hungry, a street banger of a track produced by up-and-comer MoSS and additionally featuring cuts by DJ Grouch (there’s still nothing better than a DJ cutting it up). Unlike his often comedic past, on Got Hungry Trice is just plain pissed, ready to sever any ties with his past in order to succeed: “Even though we cordial, I might step on a toe, turn a friend to foe.” Will Trice’s new, harder independent style bring more success to the Detroit mainstay? That’s up to the Booth to decide. Trice’s latest effort, Special Reserve, produced entirely by MoSS, drops December 15. Keep it locked for all the latest.

Nathen i think it depends on how you rate success!!! if you rate it more street cred then maby with this track!!! however, is he means album sales and th likes (namely radio play) he needs to go a different direction!!! - only some artists have managed not to sell heaps without selling out to mainstream music HAHAHa

Trice is a dude I'm not real familiar with (Snitch with Akon is really the only song I know by him) but I was impressed here. He came with great energy and I liked the scratches thrown in there.

That production is straight fireee!!! Obi is back is all I have to say, can't say I've listened to him much since his 'Got some teeth' which is a hell of a time ago, he spits well and truly with aggression, I'm feelin' it

I found out who ate my Pop-Tart. O_O

The production here was solid. I can't put my finger on what it reminded me of.

I never really listened or paid attention to Obie, but I will (do so, in the future).

"...produced entirely by MoSS..." I like that idea!

Obie is definitely hungry: good flow to a match a banger beat!

Trice is extremely overrated. Both of his previous albums were near-classics, mostly thanks to the production and guest features but Obie's lyrics have never disappointed. If you haven't checked out his discography, I highly recommend it.

This track, while not showing his true potential, is pretty impressive. The production is solid and Obie's style shines through nicely.

I've ALWAYS been a huge Trice fan. When he was signed to Shady and putting out albums he never got the respect (or the promotion) he deserved. He is a talented emcee with a real nice flow and energy. However, he was also the recipient of some great great - GREAT - production work. I am anxious to hear him carry his songs without it.

Here, he is off to a good start.

@Menilik MHD I think commercial success is the reason Obie left Shady in the first place, at least that's what he seems to be saying in this track. So the question is really sell more on his own than with Shady? It's too early to tell, but I'm digging the harder side of Obie. It's a strong start.

yeah this will get no radio spins but is a good album track i'd love to bump on my ipod as i start my workout. I think Obie can makeup in lyrics and passion what he'll miss in production.

Really dope to see him re-emerging. Tight wordplay, sharp delivery and display absolutely no signs of rhyme rust whatsoever. Rotation fa sho!

I don't know why but I think a Beanie Sigel and Obie Trice collaboration at this time would be some good stuff. ;-)

This beat is insane, I was so happy to see Obie on the booth today. He might just be the comeback story of the year, got to here more but if the rest of Special Reserve is anything like this, classic.

Everything was on point on the track, and it all came together nicely. The scratchin is what pushed it to banger status for me, cuz it worked well wit the track. The production was a great fit for the mood and flow of Obie. Obie really sounded hungry on the track. Sometimes a song sounds nothing like the title suggests, but he spit wit some real intensity on this one.

I can't remember hearing anything new from Obie lately. That might be because I'm barely ever online longer than it takes to check here, facebook and my email.

I'll be waiting until 12/15 to be completely happy about this, though.

Yeah, Obie's officially back in the game with this track. I used to listen to Cheers like everyday. He also had some nice cuts on his second LP. I'm looking forward to his new album. By the looks of things, it'll be a definate banger.
