Word of Mouf is his best in my opinion. But with that being said, he has an iconic discography for sure. His first 4 albums are absolute gems to me. #SouthernLegend
@@dabee4971 wrong answer.. He wanted to clean up and do acting. Cause oparah was shitting on him about the first movie he was in.. Do your research before u talk... How u know he matured? I dont remember the time is was immature?
Man I grew up bumping this on my CD player sitting on a green hotbox in the hood, back in fl...I’m here in 2021 in my White Cadillac CTS banging this classic still. I feel I came along ways hearing this song
I had a black on black Lincoln 2002 LS when this junt debuted. I’m still bangin now in my 2021 Camry wit the roof open…. Yeah we have come a long way bruh and still here to enjoy and live life.
@VV he’s really not. I honestly kind of forgot about him for like 10 years and I just revisited one of his songs last week and can’t keep finding more of his songs. He was creative as hell
I remember my friends told me Ludacris was corny back then. I'm not hearing none of that, he was Ab-Soul's favorite artist growing up. This is the song that brought me to Luda waaaay back in 04. Nothing but good memories with this song.
This makes me reminisce back to summer 2004 and I got my first summer job and could finally buy new clothes and look like my favorite rappers Ludacris was one. I love his fashion he's so unique. I felt like Hip Hop. Great video 👍👍
I miss my teen days in the early 2000s already. I miss the old Ludacris, as well as the dirty South. Atlanta Georgia truly ruled the rap game back in those days...😎
This is one of those songs where the usage of the sample is so perfect (to me at least) that I avoid even thinking about trying to sample it. I'm always gonna hear how DJ Paul & Juicy J flipped it, as well as how great Luda's verses are.
This song always makes me feel so grateful to have grown up during this time in hip hop. The youngins today really did miss out on the golden age and it shows today with what they call rap/ hip hop. Lastly shout out to DJ Paul & Juicy J. “Smoked out, loced out riding with the pistol gripped”. They don’t get the credit they deserves and not just them but all the members of Hypnotized Minds/ Camp Posse. Love you Luda.
LUDACRIS YOU KNOW YOU BAD AND YOU TOE THAT UP I LOVE IT. I WISH SOMEBODY WOULD STILL BREAKOUT REAL AND DO IT AGAIN. WILLIAM DEVAUGHN STARTED SOME """"" IVE SEEN YOU FEW TIMES HALLOFFAME PLATE FOR AND OTHER THINGS. THANK YOU FOR SHOWING YOU MADE IT.😂😂
PLEASE Y'ALL, no more Curtis Mayfield mentions. Curtis NEVER sang the original song. Forget that fake video with Curtis in the yellow suit. The song is by *William DeVaughn,* and the correct title is *"Be Thankful for What You Got".* Not "Diamond in the Back".
Yes number 1 on my shyt list or fukn explain your red and eggnog two tone ford with that fukn brat that ran outside call me a fukn lier to my face ginger bread fan cause of your phone lying fuk two boys and YOU oh phones in socorro mo3
I really love how the south supported each other when it came to music,thats why the south is so powerful because they stick together rather then hating,everybody eats B 💯
DJ Paul & Juicy J (Memphis) are the most slept on producers/beat makers of all time this beat still go hard 21 years later
I’d counter with Wildstyle from Crucial Conflict. He’s got a lot on unsung gems out there.
@@thatboybear yea wildstyle a different breed the way he took the rodeo sound and made it gangsta was crazy.
💯
Shut up that why everybody gets a turn riding shot gun. Or fuk that kids get in the back seat the front for GZ
Hardest without a doubt
the most underrated luda single, EVER...that organ & bass line is a vibe
This shit jammin
Organ , wah guitar and bass line is Dirty south
Thanks to DJ Paul and Juicy J… it’s that Memphis sound
The William DeVaughan sample is amazing
This is the LUDA I remember. Till this day “CHICKEN & BEER” is his best album he's ever dropped!
Marcoldies12
Hell yeah
Marcoldies12 don't sleep on theatre of the mind
Have you really listened to word of mouf? Shits on this album every day.
bro word of mouf is golden
Word of Mouf is his best in my opinion. But with that being said, he has an iconic discography for sure. His first 4 albums are absolute gems to me. #SouthernLegend
This Song Hits Harder Now Then It Back Then
Songs like this make you realize how underrated Luda really was

I wish rap was this soulfull today. Nothing sounds like this great story telling. Luda got you feeling good about being black love it.
Big Krit says hello

Love this song man... ludacris don't care what people say. Ludacris is in my top 5 of all time
@VV he’s really not. I honestly kind of forgot about him for like 10 years and I just revisited one of his songs last week and can’t keep finding more of his songs. He was creative as hell
It's not even Good (Considering Dre used those samples first, and Ludacris had to slow them down so Dre wouldn't sue him.
This is amazing! Ludacris is 💥💥💥! I love this song and his version is absolutely dope.❤
If someone's talking smack about Ludacris, you gotta ditch em. He's super talented. The complainers clearly have poor taste in music. Buh-bye.
Luda hugely underrated
This joint is such a vibe
Born In Chicago,Raised In Atlanta,GA.Luda made his mark on this earth.
I remember my friends told me Ludacris was corny back then. I'm not hearing none of that, he was Ab-Soul's favorite artist growing up. This is the song that brought me to Luda waaaay back in 04. Nothing but good memories with this song.
I miss the early 2000s♡
An ambitious Ludacris.
After enough plays, you can only imagine how many times he’s said “I wanna” as an affirmation.
My absolute favorite song of his. DJ Paul and Juicy J were some cold producers.
Dj Paul is 1 of the best southern producer,this beat hot 🔥 as shit
Rza, dj premier, alchemist, dj Paul, I can go on
The Greatest ever!
Best to ever do it bro
According to Juicy J, this is his track. Paul wasn't actually involved on this one.
Luda’s best song hands down.
On a Ludacris marathon today.
Greetings from Kenya!
This joint deserved more recognition 🔥🔥
@aplusk
This was a dope summer track
His most underrated song
No, as far as singles, I have to give it to "Slap."
This song was not underrated it was always on the radio whoot whoot
V years late but don't sleep on "Child of the night"
Hard Times was good
Yeah out of the songs he put out on this album this was slept on to me
This makes me reminisce back to summer 2004 and I got my first summer job and could finally buy new clothes and look like my favorite rappers Ludacris was one. I love his fashion he's so unique. I felt like Hip Hop. Great video 👍👍
Be Thankful for What You Got. ...William Devaughn
He brought me here haha. I forgot how Luda used the original track.
I miss my teen days in the early 2000s already. I miss the old Ludacris, as well as the dirty South. Atlanta Georgia truly ruled the rap game back in those days...😎

Listening in July 2021. Love this but grew with the original.
I really enjoyed what Ludacris did to enhance a classic
Music with a message
When i got his album, I played the HELL out of this song! Still one of my favs from Luda amongst others 🔥🔥🔥🔥
This got me through high school. I love Luda.
So many legends in this video... great vibes. Miss this music,
THIS MAN KILLED A CLASSIC!!
Raised off that DTP. One of the best Luda tracks
LUDACRIS is way bigger than any other rapper or hiphop artist in the world..
Reminiscing of the good old times

This remake hits! Good job Luda you handled business on this underrated single
Such a underrated Ludacris song
Love the beat... still listening to the original. Another good one is I Do it For Hip-Hop.
True southern classic 🔥💯
Ludacris is a legend. Originally from Chicago, IL too.
Fly track by Luda 🔥

I was 10 years old rockin to this on BET Rap City🔥.. music was good back then
Man, times was different.

Ludacris is young gifted and black, one of the greatest rappers of today.

Jackpot From NLK you trippin
craig smith CyHi.

One of the most underrated cuts ever. So fire
Hell yea... real hip hop. Luda! A town, stays down.
This will for ever be my jam who's still vibeing listen like me LOVE IT❤️❤️❤️
One of his most underrated gems
Luda will always be 1 of my favorites hands down
Bumping this in Seattle cruise
Just Achieving My Dreams
Thank God
My mf childhood I miss the early 2000s
I grew up to this music. Miss it so much. The new trash that’s called “rap” really goes further to show how talented artists like Ludacris were.
That's real talk. I looked up this song (one of my fav as a kid) just because me and my friend were talking about how under rated luda was
oh stop acting like the 2000s didnt have trash songs to
Forever a classic
This is a classic...brings back so many memories.😏
back when they used to make bangers for youths an grown folk
donmymicpleaseaplaud luda was a lyrical genius. he knew his audience & he knew what to say & how to deliver the message
Not to mention alot of the rappers at this time was born and grew up with the music that was sampled from the 70s&80s
@@slowburnraloh1807 Makes a lot of sense that they would sample their favorite songs!
@@hakeemsd70m yeah most likely music their parents listened to
Luda, DJ Paul & Juicy J killed this! 🔥
A nigga could really use a Luda album these days. This joint just hit different 2022!
My shit right here 🔥🙌🏾 , throwback during quarantine 😷
"It's hard growing up lookn at drug dealers with all this paper wonderin how I can get me some"...
Damn crazy how underrated this is Luda been killin it
BEST SONG OF LUDA EVERRRRR
PLEASE Y'ALL, no more Curtis Mayfield mentions. Curtis NEVER sang the original song. Forget that fake video with Curtis in the yellow suit. The song is by *William DeVaughn,* and the correct title is *"Be Thankful for What You Got".* Not "Diamond in the Back".
The PLEASE Y'ALL text in the auto comment highlight made me find this 10/10 agree
Who's listening to this in 2019?! 😎🎶🎶
The shit
It’s a wonderful song.
It's me Braden I'm Gay
