Ludacris - Growing Pains

'I'm a child of the corn, been wild since I was born'

A recent-ish effort from Ludacris, one of his most accessable tracks, and most likely one of my favourites from the man. Check it out;

Now, the William Bell original is stunning, a heartfelt Stax/Volt song from 1968. It's a really genuine song of love and regret, and has these touching, soaring strings section throughout. It's always been a favourite of mine and many others, so you'd think the thought of Luda bastardising it would be sacreligious. But some how it works, I think it's the sentiment behind it. That said, it didn't work for Dialated Peoples or Jaheim.

William Bell - I Forgot To Be Your Lover; One of the greatest songs ever.
