T-Pain - Ghetto Commandments
Artist: T-Pain
Featuring: Snoop Dogg , Mack Maine
Producer: T-Pain
Album: Freaknik: The Musical Soundtrack
Label: Konvict/Nappy Boy/RCA
At first glance, Auto-Tune maven T-Pain has absolutely nothing in common with Old Testament heavyweight Moses, but those who look a little deeper will find that… uh. Nope. Still nothing. While I sincerely doubt that the Ghetto Commandments described on this single off his new Adult Swim animated special, Freaknik: The Musical, were actually handed down by the Almighty, readers would nonetheless do well to heed the advice the Nappy Boy head honcho and his collaborators deliver over Pain’s own blend of synths, harpsichord and piano. In addition to the requisite studio-enhanced hook, the headliner contributes rapped opening bars, and the remaining two slots are filled by Young Money rapper Mack Maine (who, to his credit, actually runs with the “Thou shalt/Thou shalt not” concept) and the eternally laid-back Snoop Dogg. Which collaborator offers the wisest counsel? I’ll leave that for you to decide. Ghetto Commandments dropped Tuesday and is available now on iTunes, and those who missed Freaknik‘s premiere earlier this month will be able to cop the DVD on April 6.

beat caught my attention, pretty disrespectful for the christian world...i hope they don't go to hard on him...i see this is a street single...tpain got some bars but that hook i would wipe my ass with...i see where mack maine was coming from but he didn't do outstanding...waiting on snoops verse...and i thought pain was the king of hooks....ego is a prob in our society today...typical snoop verse...he was def high...no energy with his verse at all...thats all he needed so yeah this is just...

Wow I actually prefer T-Pain as a rapper over a singer...if you really consider him one. The hook is horrible especially since it comes from T-Pain. Mack Maine and Snnop were bad and just ruined an already bad song.

This beat is clean but the hook is kinda canned(garbage). Liked all of the verses though, Mack Maine definitely went the hardest. 2.5 stars

I NEVER thought I would write that Mack Maine was the best part of a record when said record included a legend and one of the most pop-saavy artists in the urban music scene... but that is exactly what I'm doing here.

The beat is sick, could have been used with a better hook/better verses to produce a fire track...this is just ok, if that

Decent track, the production and the hook were alright & Maine and Snoop delievered some decent verses. Overall decent track
Am I the only one that thinks this is the sort of track that would of been better suited to a DJ Khaled album then a T-Pain album? |

Hook had potential but sounded a bit jumbled. Pain is nothing spectacular as a rapper. And neither Mack Maine or Snoop were anything great on this one either. Take it or leave it. 2.5

Is this beat not a copy of ice cube's song 'Jack in a box' by The Bizness?

This started of well but ended horribly. When the singer out raps the two rappers you know something is wrong.

Good Sh#! Nathan this is wack....beat is about the only thing good out this song. All three verses mediocre, Tpizzy at the top very sub par and Snoop needs a case of Redbull as usual. oh well at least I can cop the beat

Certainly not his best work on hook, but for a street oriented crew cut the song does well... 2.5

For real? People just countin from 1 to 9 for a hook? F***ing lazy... track had potential if more thought was put into it.
P.S why does Snoop keep hoppin' on tracks where he just spits 4 lines and then leaves? |
