Album Notes Though Field Mob sticks with its rural-minded perspective on 2006's LIGHT POLES AND PINE TREES, the Georgia-based hip-hop duo offers up another round of tracks that are custom-made for inner-city clubs. A straight-up set of beat-driven Dirty South anthems, the record finds Smoke and Shawn Jay easing into rhymes about cars (the slightly screwed "My Wheels"), women (the R&B/pop-tinged "So What," featuring Ciara), and their roots (the catchy "Smilin'," with Ludacris). The pair's most accessible and assured outing to date, LIGHT POLES is sure to please Mob diehards and win over some new fans as well.
Industry Reviews Field Mob makes a point to raise the bar lyrically....The Mob's quest for respect is not lost as they make a smooth transition...
Field Mob aims to prove that witty lyrics, bright song concepts, and breezy tunes can still triumph in the Dirty South.
[T]heir bouncy tracks will most likely satisfy old-school OutKast fans....Field Mob excel with a drawl and a wink. -- Grade: B+
4 stars out of 5 -- With soaring, twangy accents....Georgia natives Smoke and Shawn Jay impressively subvert crunk stereotypes...
3 stars out of 5 -- Smoke and Shawn J return with their sibilant, deep-fried flows intact....Turns out Field Mob are still best at serving it raw.
