"Da Minted"

...Songs like "Bounce Wit It" and "Gank Me" are strictly for the streets. "Misunderstandings" which features Thrill da Playa, speaks to the hearts in love. To top it off, Da Minted's
Life is So Sick" is lyrically incredible, with off-the-hook production. The up-tempo Dirty South beats come courtsey MG and Reggie "The Hitman" Litman. Da Minted is a combination of early Goodie Mobb, twisted with some Dirty and influenced by 'Pac and Biggie'(RIP)...
