First Born - Riders

First Born - Riders
First Born is a rapper from Nashville, TN. This was his jamming debut album and it was released in 1999 on Totally Independent Productions (T.I.P.) Production was done by the legendary Mannie Fresh along with Keith Falgout and Brian "Big Bass" Gardner. The beats are dope and can be strictly simplified as southern funk. Lyrics are impressive too. This youngster can certainly spit. His vocals are raw and uncut. They will most likely indulge the listener more with each upcoming track. Guest spots are made by Bun B of UGK, Young Buck of Psycho Drama, Willie D of the Geto Boys, Papa Reu, Pimpin' Ken, J.D., Jayo Felony, D-Tay, Joi, Greg Street and D-Smoov. This album is solid in and out, from the banging production to the exemplary lyrics and lastly, the commendable selection of featuring guests.
