Since parting ways with B.G.’s Chopper City Records, rapper VL Mike has signed a label deal with Sony subsidiary label, Epic. For his debut album, There’s Only 1 Me, the New Orleans born MC has hooked up with super-producer Mannie Fresh for his debut single, Money In Here. In this ode to making a hard earned dollar, Mike takes a jab at his old label over financial issues (make sense on a song entitled, Money In Here) and applauds strippers who earn their paper just like anyone working a 9 to 5. Both VL Mike and producer Mannie Fresh are tentatively set to release new projects this spring.
It's good to hear Mannie Fresh again. His beats are great, but this one isn't that good to me. I never really thought anyone on choppa city records was good except for B.G. VL Mike isn't good enough.
Really like this track. Mannie always kills it with his production and VL Mike came hard on this track, consistent and confident flow throughout the track. Mannie on the hook is nuts and I love the beat and that lil chopped voice in the hook. BANGER [without Mannie it'd just be in rotation]
Beat this is a solid track, has a very very good meter to it. Like the piano in the stanza, i think it gives it a "fresh" sound.. pun intended
I would flange-fade this song at first until the chorus, then scratch and repeat until B side is ready
Id spin this right before going into the Hard/Crunk portion of a set
Rip my nigga wish you and b.g. would have reheal the womb but it is what it is yeah tell slim we love him miss him rip VL, Pimp, MoE, Soulja Slim, Big hawk Camoflague, Fat pat, and those who I for got rip also my homie Tony god bless the dead
