"Down in the A before crunk completely took over we had the So So Def Bass All Stars. Songs off their albums would rock until a completely new one came out. THe So So Def Bass All Stars is where some groups and big names of today got their start (Ying Yang Twins, Lil John & Eastside Boyz etc.). The beats were very smooth on this album and straight rode out. R&B songs set to fast paced beats with occasionally some rapping. These songs with incredible chants are easily recognized by folks from the South and even some outside the South. THe songs are straight booty shakin/ freaknik type stuff. Songs such as Thyou (Thigh) (Oooh Lawd she's got that Thyou, that Thyou), or What's Up What's Up with that chant for the chorus, these songs were instantly enjoyable. Or Kootchie Kuters (Look At Dem Girls That Got them Kootchie Kuters on) which became an instant classic or the chilled out Let It Burn. Whichever song, that joint was bumpin and through this point in JD's career he was considered a genius. The magnum opus of this album, however, was My Boo by the Ghost Town DJ's. That was undeniably the southern anthem for 96 as far as the parties were concerned. Everyone in the South knows that song by heart. It's popularity rivaled that of Get Low in 2003. INcredible beat and lyrics. The first So So Def album is a must have for any fan of Southern music. 5 stars."

"This cd is ok. My boo is a great song that is why I got this.It was the smash hit of 96. Brings back memories of my freshman highschool year. The rest of the cd get irritating after awhile. It sounds so outdated now.I must admit that this was the best ATL had to offer at the time.By the way baby d and lil jon make the prefame cameos in this. Save your money for vol.2 which is a way better than this."
