Listennn: The Album (CD - 2006)

Miami radio fixture, mix-tape scene mainstay, and a member of Fat Joe's Terror Squad (Fat Joe executive produced the album and appears on two tracks), DJ Khaled released his debut album, LISTENNN..., in 2006. Loaded up with an all-star line-up of guest MCs--from Dirty South thugs like Bun B and Chamillionaire, to East Coast hardcore figures like Jadakiss and Juelz Santana, to Kanye West and reggaeton star Pitbull--Khaled packs his tracks with more than enough frenetic, synth-driven bounce to the ounce to keep them noticeable amidst the overcrowded field of early-2000s thugged-out party rap. minimize
