Field Mob
“LIGHT POLES AND PINE TREES”
RATING: 3 SOUND LEVELS
Shawn Jay and Smoke’s energetic and entertaining third album continues a stellar track record. Ciara adds breathy vocals to the playful “So What,” and Ludacris delivers sharp lyrics to “Smilin’.” The rest of the disc, however, shows why Field Mob could have been stars without the seemingly mandatory parade of guests rappers now featured on their albums. On the somber “Blacker the Berry,” one of the best rap songs in years, Smoke painfully yet humorously details the ridicule and self-doubt he’s faced because of his dark complexion.
