Also included is the most recent single "Bedroom Boom" feat. Avant plus 5 previously unreleased songs; " 4 Oz" features Three Six Mafia. The bonus dvd showcases all three hit videos from "U.S.A" : "Wait,""Badd" (feat. Mike Jones) and "Shake" (feat. Pitbull), plus over an hour of live performances, interviews and behind the scenes footage.

 Much better release than United State of Atlanta! February 7, 2006

Their first album pretty much sucked to say the least. But this one tears it up with a ton of new bouncey tracks with awesome beats. These tracks will surely get the ladies moving.
Some of the best tracks IMO are:
1) Wiggle then move 9/10
2) Git it 9/10
3) Get Yern 10/10

I'm generally not into southern rap but the Ying Yang Twins continue to deliver good CDs that you can really get into. Their lyrics lack depth but beats and energy make for good entertainment. This CD has a lot of funny skits as well. Good Buy
 Just okay for me February 1, 2006

I bought this expecting this to be something like My Brother and Me was. They had different remixes of Salt Shaker and I was hoping they would have different Mixes of Wait - The Whisper song. I was especially hoping Still United would have the version that featured Busta Rhymes, Missy Elliott, Lil Scrappy, and
Free.
I feel like the Ying Yang Twins hang out in strip clubs and that seems to be the inspiration for some of their songs. They don't say anything profound, but some of the beats on some of the songs end up grabbing you and that's why I pay this group any attention all.
The DVD is fun to watch. So if you like having the music videos and performances, that's worth having for sure. The music videos on the DVD are Wait, Shake and Badd. The making of the DVD feature is also really nice. My favorite TV appearance is when the Ying Yang twins are on Adam Corolla's show. That interview is so comical. Adam talks about the fact they have the bling, bling in their mouth, and how silly it is.
This CD is basically a collection of the songs that did not make the USA CD. Ms. New Booty is on the Bubba Sparxx CD, and Git IT is on the Bun B CD. If you are a die hard Ying Yang fan, then this CD is worth buying. Otherwise it's really nothing special. I ended up getting it as a gift from someone.
There are only certain artist who can do Hip Hop slow jams, and the Ying Tang Twins are not one of them!!! Bedroom Boom? I did not like that cut at all. Out of the 12 cuts on the CD only 5 will get some play.
The Cuts I did like
2 - wiggle then move
3 - Ms. New Booty
4- Git it
11- Wait
12- Shake Remix
 I'm not going to hate, but I'm also not going to lie. November 9, 2006

I must've done something horrible, and my conscience must've needed to punish me, because I've subjected myself to all of the variations of the Ying Yang Twins' U.S.A.(United States of Atlanta). I'm going to choose my words carefully for this release, while still managing to give you my opinion; so, keep in mind, I'm no 'player hater,' or anything, as I've given this a fair chance.
Wiggle Then Move has a nice beat, but the lyrics are typical YYT fare. Not a good thing at all, but the main reason you go into a Ying Yang album is for some (hopefully) fresh production, right? The production, while simple and repetitive on this track, manages to work. The Ying Yang Twins' "HAHN!" littered throughout the track hurts it musically, but this is a track I won't hate on.
Ms. New Booty is the honestly one of the worst songs I've ever heard in my life. I wanted to be gentle, but I honestly can't with this track. Booty booty everywhere? While I appreciate that this track gets fly honies on the dance floor flaunting their rumps, you'd probably have too much of a migraine from this song to actually pay attention to the bouncing badonkadonks. Also, the YYT are pushing their whisper gimmick way too far. Not everyone of their tracks has to include a whispered verse, or bridge.
Git It is a hot track from Bun B's solo debut, Trill; which I most definitely suggest you check out as opposed to this album. Bun B's one of the most skilled cats coming out of the South, and deserves your support. No hating on this track, as the beat, while recycled, has just enough adjustments to work, and Bun B makes any song listenable.
Get Yern is a decent change of pace musically, but the Musicianz make the Ying Yang Twins look dope. Pretty sad, isn't it?
The Pink is, hands down, the best track on the album; a novelty track indeed, but no matter who pulled off this track, you've gotta admit it's pretty tight. The Pink Panther sample owns this track; I'd love to get a hand of the instrumental. The Ying Yang Twins' lyrics are secondary, more so than usual; definitely works to the advantage on this track. Even if you're not a fan of the Twins, I'd suggest downloading this track, as it's charming. Shame this wasn't on the original U.S.A., as it'd have made that album more noteworthy.
4 Oz. is a pretty tight track; obviously because of the Three 6 Mafia. I'm not sure if Juicy J or DJ Paul provided the beat for this track, but it sounds like one of their trademarks, and is definitely the second best track on this album next to The Pink; it's pretty decent by Three 6 Mafia standards, and sublime by Ying Yang Twins; since this is a Ying Yang Twins album, I'd say this is definitely one of two tracks to check out on this otherwise excruciating release.
Legendary Status is horrible; another track that amazingly makes you miss the Ying Yang Twins.
No idea why Bedroom Boom makes an appearance here, since it's the same mix that was on the original U.S.A. album; still a decent track, but pointless here.
Duts is horrible even by Ying Yang Twin standards. I mean, honestly, what was the point of this track? It's an extended track. The beat's alright, but this just seems so out of place on the album.
The two remixes are decent for what they are; honestly, Wait(The Whisper Song) is way more infectious than it ever had the right to be. This is a strange remix, though, and not really much of one to begin with - again, pretty pointless, but the track's still decent, even though it is censored for whatever reason. The reggaeton remix of Shake is, well, it's different. Not different as in good, though. Pitbull really does shine when paired with the Ying Yang Twins; of course, Mike Jones did too. That's not really a compliment, no disrespect meant to holmes.
In the end, this album is something you should really avoid; maybe the DVD will be worth the purchase for you, but as someone who is far from a big Ying Yang Twins fan, or even a moderate one, this album is weak as hell. The Pink and 4 Oz. are tracks you should check out, but otherwise, don't waste your money.
great value for your money January 23, 2006
