{"product_id":"ea-y-money-m-o-n-e-y-music-cd-794465956124","title":"Ea$y Money - M.o.n.e.y. - Music CD","description":"Featuring Action Bronson, Joey Bada$$, Lil Fame of MOP, DJ Premier, Statik Selektah, 9th Wonder, BuckWild, Termanology \u0026amp; more. \"In a rap game full of fake n*s I'm a standout,\" boasts Ea$y Money on his lead single \"Nothin' Alike,\" and his debut album \"The M.O.N.E.Y.\" proves just that. With production from Hip Hop legends like DJ Premier, 9th Wonder \u0026amp; BuckWild as well as legend in the making Statik Selektah, \"The M.O.N.E.Y.\" (an acronym for the Motive Of Nearly Everybody, Yo) stays true to the East-Coast Boom Bap sound of Hip Hop's Golden Era and gives Ea$y the perfect backdrop for his hard hitting lyrics. Further acknowledging the era which inspired him, Ea$y divides the 15 track LP into an A \u0026amp; B side (\"Dollars \u0026amp; Sense\") taking you back to when cassette tapes were popular. Though this may give you the idea that this album sounds dated, \"The M.O.N.E.Y.\" is anything but that. Ea$y's flawless flow and cleverly crafted lyrics along with collaborating with newcomers such as Action Bronson \u0026amp; Joey Bada$$ give the album a fresh sound while maintaining a nostalgic feel. On \"The M.O.N.E.Y.\" Ea$y shows his versatility by effortlessly shifting gears between battle ready rhymes (\"All Been Waiting,\" \"Nothin' Alike,\" \"Hit The Fan\") displayed heavily on the \"Dollars\" side to more conceptual \u0026amp; introspective records on the \"Sense\" side (\"Takin'It With Me,\" \"Money \u0026amp; Blood\" as well as the title track) all while focusing to the concept of the album title. Never one to compromise artistic integrity, Ea$y even manages to craft a record for the ladies (the Jared Evan assisted \"Took It All Away\") without straying away from his sound. During times where lyrics almost no longer matter in Hip Hop, Ea$y never loses a step lyrically throughout the LP and with Statik Selektahhandling the majority of the production, neither do the beats. Like many other rappers, Ea$y is no stranger to the streets and has even suffered the setback of jail time. But, like many of those same rappers who use the gangster image as a gimmick and most times as a crutch, Ea$y chooses to let the music speak for itself. \" I feel as though MCs focus on portraying a certain image to hide the fact that they lack talent,\" says Ea$y. And that there is right on \"The M.O.N.E.Y.\"","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49207720542450,"sku":"STDS101.2","price":20.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0830\/7018\/9810\/files\/2910448.jpg?v=1778869904","url":"https:\/\/discandvinyl.com\/products\/ea-y-money-m-o-n-e-y-music-cd-794465956124","provider":"DiscandVinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
