Ridin' Dirty (Jive, 1996) by UGK

Bun B is an incredible rapper; there's no doubt about that.  And so the great thing about this album is the production.  Pimp C's production is a breath of fresh air- it's real music and that creates a great juxtaposition to the gritty raps.  Content-wise, it isn't much difference from other rap cliches.  However, it's not the west coast funk or the heavy bass that's often apparent in the south.  Therefore, it ultimately creates something that hasn't really been heard before.  I think it's an incredible album and it's one that I always play straight through from beginning to end.
