Full review
When I was a newcomer to the Crunk music genre, I was desperately looking for artists of this genre and you know what? 9 times out of 10 the main names that came up are Lil Jon & The Eastside Boy's.

For anyone that doesn't know what Crunk is, Crunk is a unique style of rap, coming up from the dirty south, similar to rock 'n' roll or punk rock but the guitars are replaced with heavy bass and the lyrics are versed with the intentions of, "get drunk or get f#@$ed up".

Already a fan of their song, "What You Gon' Do" (which is from this album) it was going to be a real good day listening to an album by the originaters of this new genre. And with the inclusion of the bonus remix CD and the DVD containing some of their live performances and the video to their song named above, it wasn't really hard to say no. I got the 2CD+DVD album edition off Amazon for £12.99 but it's being sold now for £15.99 and the 2CD edition without the DVD is sold for £13.99 due to Amazon raising some of their prices.

The Album line up are as Follows:
Disc 1:
01. Crunk Juice
02. Get Crunk feat Bo Hagon
03. What U Gon' Do feat Lil Scrappy
04. Real N**** Roll Call feat Ice Cube
05. Bo Hagon's Phone Call (skit)
06. Da Blow feat Gangsta Boo

11. Chris Rock Let's Be Friends (skit)
12. Lovers & Friends feat Usher & Ludacris
13. One Night Stand feat Oobie
14. Aww Skeet Skeet feat DJ Flexx
15. Chris Rock In The Club (skit)
16. In The Club feat R. Kelly & Ludacris
17. Bitches Aint Shit feat Nate Dogg, Snoop Dogg, Suga Free & Oobie
18. Chris Rock Get Lower (skit)

02. The Making of Crunk Juice documentary
03. Performance on MTV VMA Awards
04. BET's How I'm livin
05. Hosting MTV Movie Awards; Red Carpet interviewer together with Paris Hilton

On recieving and listening to the album, I found some easy favourites such as, "Real N**** Roll Call", "White Meat", "Lovers and Friends" and "Grand Finale", the line-up of featured superstars really added to the feeling that this genre of music is really becoming more mainstream. But due to me tending to like the more agressive tracks of Crunk, more play-throughs made me realise that there wasn't enough hard tracks to keep you listening, don't get me wrong though, the album is really top stuff, but to fans that have heard earlier albums from Lil Jon & TESB and from other various artists of Crunk will know the agreesiveness that Crunk music can hold and Crunk Juice just doesn't live up to that.

Newcomers to crunk music will love what this album has to offer but to more hardcore agressive listeners you won't be listening to this album more than twice.
