Album Review

There are two major events that kept the College Park, GA duo Playaz Circle out of the studio for ten years: Dolla Boy landed himself in jail while Tity Boi was wounded in a shooting. All the while, their good friend and advocate Ludacris waited, promising them a place in his Disturbing tha Peace family plus an album release whenever they were ready. After their personal drama settled, guest shots on DTP releases brought some attention, but it was with their own infectious and hard single "Duffle Bag Boy" — with special guest superstar Lil Wayne — that they staked their claim and got the Dirty South faithful talking. No big surprise their debut doesn't top or equal the single, but it is surprising that there's little payoff for the duo's ten years of struggle (where're the insightful lyrics?) and partnership (where's the chemistry?). Still, "Duffle Bag Boy" is brilliant, and both "Gucci Bag" and "Betta Knock," with Ludacris, are worth repeat plays. Then there's the daring "Dear Mr. L.A. Reid," which talks to the big label boss from way down on the roster, plus "Paper Chaser" with Little Brother's Phonte bringing the grown man business. Drumma Boy and his ilk provide the exciting Dirty South production, no skits or interludes keep the track list tight, but Playaz Circle themselves lean back their whole album, low-riding as if their legend were enough. While Supply & Demand gets a passing grade thanks to its highlights, a little more heart and hunger would have made it a lot more memorable.

Customer Reviews

Playaz Circle-Supply & Demand

Hailing from College Park, Georgia, rap duo Playaz Circle, an acronym for Preparing Legal Assets for Years from A-Z, have been down with Luda for a while. Comprised of Tity Boi & Dolla Boy, they were incarcerated, until Luda reached out to them. After years of hard work they bring their debut album, Supply & Demand. Dear Mr. L.A. Reid: Nice production, the talking kind of confused me at first, but then when the track picks up, the introduction isn't bad, in letter format. 3/5 #1 Trap Pick: Big Crucial produces this banger, heavy bass and definitely a trunk rumbler. A certified banger for the hood, it is extremely catchy with the lyrics being repeated in chant style, hook was a little weak but decent. 3.5/5 Duffle Bag Boy: M16's organ filled creation with church bells and Lil Wayne's addicting sing songy chorus, this became yet another hood anthem for getting money. More street than 50's "I Get Money" and definitely street certified, Tity Boi spits "you n***as barely dressing, I got thousands pilin, that's that salad dressin, I'm on my thousand island". Good track. 4/5 Betta Knock: Booming bass with a playful flute line, the track seems a little dull. The hook by Ludacris wasn't too impressive, "if I got a system in my car, then it betta knock, betta knock" and overall it is just decent. 2/5 Paper Chaser: Very nice production on this, as rising strings blend nicely and a soft hook from Phonte of Little Brother works well. Its a more soulful "after that money" track and is a pleasant surprise. 3.5/5 We Workin: Drumma Boy's banging bass with synths work well and this is a club banger. It isn't as effective as "#1 Trap Pick" but nonetheless a hot banger with a chant heavy hook. 3/5 U Can Believe It: 70's soul production by Buckwild, the track is relaxing and definitely better than the previous Luda-Playaz collab. Although the topic isn't anything new, Luda drops a solid guest appearance and the track is good. 3.5/5 Paint Still Wet: Catchy hook "she don't wanna freak me, she wanna freak my car", interesting though, you usually use the car to get the girl, this defeats the purpose of a car if she want the car. Anyways, the beat was decent and its another whip track, decent. 3/5 Outlaw: Rock guitar meets drum pattern production, yet another rock/rap experiment, this was okay. Production was good however it drowns out the rapping, the duo seem out of place and sadly the rapping doesn't do the beat justice. 2.5/5 Gucci Bag: Lil Jon like production with the synth keys, 808 driven bass and intense high hats. Subject matter is a little too similar to "Duffle Bag Boy", but its a club banger that doesn't fufill potential. Shawnna makes a solid appearance. 3/5 Let Me Fly: Piano laced and filled with emotion, the hook is only average. Tity and Dolla rap about absentee fathers and strong mothers, the deep track of the album it works very well and ends the album on a good note. 4/5 Playaz Circle's debut, Supply & Demand is a typical south album. They are the newest trap stars to hit the rap game, so do they seperate themselves from the rest of the pack? Not really, both are lyrically average, Tity Boi more of the rapper than Dolla Boy. Occasionally there will be a hot line, but its the same old same old cliched topics of hustling, cars, money and street themes. If you look for lyrical content, look for something else, this is strictly for the streets and those that love hood anthems. Smart move by Luda to keep the album at a tight 11 song tracklist, to prevent filler, although there is maybe one skipper. It is short, has its bangers, the best of them being "#1 Trap Pick", close followers "Gucci Bag" and "We Workin". "Betta Knock" is the skipper and possibly "Outlaw" because of the tiresome rap/rock production that doesn't fit the duo, it seems forced. "Paper Chaser" was a nice surprise, "U Can Believe It" is soulful and lead single "Duffle Bag Boy" has an addicting hook that became this years street anthem of getting money, besides the more commercial 50. "Paint Still Wet" was only average, nice intro and ending as "Let Me Fly" is heartfelt and emotional content that ends the album well. Decent debut album, the hood should enjoy but for others, check out a few tracks and decide for yourself. Rating: 7 out of 10

Hot Album

Playaz Circle is not your average group from the south -- lots of them can't rap these days, but Playaz Circle has major talent. If you aren't going to buy more than one song this year, you should buy Duffle Bag Boy, but with Ludacris on some of the tracks and Playaz Circle doing pretty well on their own, you can't go wrong.

This album is on Supply & in Demand

Biography

Formed: 1997 in College Park, GA

Genre: Hip Hop/Rap

Years Active: '90s, '00s, '10s

Attempting to balance club-friendly, Southern crunk with more conceptual lyrics, Atlanta-based rappers Tity Boi and Dolla Boy first teamed up as Playaz Circle (aka the Duffle Bag Boys) in 1997 in adjacent city College Park, GA. Having been friends since high school, the two eagerly began recording street releases and mixtapes. Not soon afterward, another aspiring MC and local radio disc jockey, Ludacris, moved into their same College Park housing complex and started collaborating with Playaz Circle....
