Review: `Supply & Demand,' Playaz Circle By BRETT JOHNSON, For The Associated Press Mon Oct 29 Playaz Circle, "Supply & Demand" (DTP Records/Def Jam)
The Georgia rap duo Playaz Circle must realize that a Lil Wayne cameo can be the ultimate gift and curse. The New Orleans rapper lends the plaintive sing-songy chorus to Tity Boi and Dolla's chart-climbing single "Duffle Bag Boy," from the pair's largely unremarkable debut CD "Supply & Demand."
But the downside is that Wayne, as on most of his guest spots, steals the show from his collaborators. Around the track's church organ stabs, he weaves his raspy, melodic croon: "If I don't do nothin' I'mma ball/ I'm countin' all day like the clock on the wall/ say go and get your money little duffle bag boy/ now go and get your money little duffle bag boy/ Get money!"
When Playaz Circle attempts to keep pace with Weezy, some metaphors seem ill-chosen, especially Tity Boi's boast: "I am on my (expletive), I need a Pamper on me/ Toilet paper on the side/ for example, homie." Ultimately, the song's a prime example of the album's main flaw: Tity and Dolla's inability to leave a lasting impression without outside help.
The disc's best songs stand out because of its guests. "Betta Knock" features a haunting flute, slow-funk beat and a rhymed chorus from Ludacris. Later, Phonte from Little Brother offers his warmly sung vocals on "Paper Chaser."
Yet when the duo takes the lead on cuts such as the gold-digger dis "Paint Still Wet" and street hustle ode "We Workin'," you can't help but wonder what other rapper/singer could inject the tracks with some more excitement. Unfortunately, it's probably not the type of demand Playaz Circle had in mind when they named this album.
CHECK OUT THIS TRACK: Though not on the CD, the remix of "Duffle Bag Boy" can be found online with full verses from Lil Wayne, Birdman and Juelz Santana.
