- Throw Dem Bows
As the first act signed to Scarface's newly formed Def Jam South, Ludacris has a lot to live up to. He had already got a local buzz with the single "What's Your Fantasy", so the only question that Ludacris really faced was would his style be accepted all over the map and not just in the South. Once the single started getting BET and radio play, Ludacris started getting known and "Back For The First Time" got the jump start that it needed. Instead of concentrating on strictly the bounce sound of the South, Ludacris focuses on the lyrical side of things and that's why I like his CD so much. You don't get the repetitive tracks on this CD like you would on most CDs from Down South Artists. The CD starts off with a bang with the song "U Got A Problem". You get the typical Down South beats but Ludacris rips the track to shreds with his lyrics and that also continues with the Organized Noise produced "Game Got Switched". The whole CD is filled with Down South beats and Ludacris or his crew supplying the lyrics. UGK, who still has yet to drop a CD, shows up for the best song on the CD in my opinion, "Stick Em Up". Ludacris stays with UGK the whole time on this lyrical slugfest from the South and you will want to hear this combination on another song in the future. Ludacris also wins with his current single, The Neptunes' produced, "Southern Hospitality". Other noteworthy songs are the Timbaland produced, "Phat Rabbit" and the "What's Ya Fantasy" (Remix) w/Trina, Shawna & Foxy Brown. Foxy Brown sounds like she is on a comeback trail after her parts on this song and CNN's "Bang Bang". The only question I have for Ludacris is why he didn't rap on his own remix? This is a tight debut CD from Ludacris. Hopefully, other Def Jam South artists will follow this example. Customer review - October 18, 2000

"All about Ludacris". This album deserves more than 5 stars. He is representing the dirty south to the fullest. His single "what's your fantasy" has hit number one already and I wish him much more success in the future albums he has coming in the future

- This CD is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!
Ludacris' "Back For The First Time" is just a great album. Everyone that appreciates rap should buy this CD because it is definately worth.... Every song on this album is worthy of listening to. Most of the songs are worth listening to quite a lot of times. Also, this CD is one of the best CD's I've ever listened to for bass. This CD has a lot of bass and makes the songs even better. Awesome songs on this CD are What's Your Fantasy, Southern Hospitality, Hood Stuck, Game Got Switched, Ho, 1st and 10, and Get Off Me. Those 7 songs alone are worth the price of a full CD. Trust me buy this CD! 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful:
