Pro Reviews: Cod
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews Despite his look, Ray Cash is neither Ludacris' younger brother nor an accountant. The bespectacled MC from Cleveland sticks out his neck as the new representative for a city that hasn't produced a considerable amount of hiphop talent. (There's Bone, and then there's...crickets.) He knows his history as well as the Game, if not more so, and he demonstrates this in a way that isn't nearly as gimmicky. In fact, it's evident that he has absorbed rap music from the East, to the West, to the South (especially), as well as all points inbetween, and is already fully formed as a distinct personality with skill to spare. On the Rick Rockproduced "Bumpin' My Music," which bumps as much as anything that has come from the South during the past few years, Cash demonstrates some of the qualities that make him so remarkable. With a delivery as smooth and studied as that of T.I., he namechecks a number of his inspirations without sounding particularly indebted to any one of them ironically, Scarface guests and is a lot more direct in his references. "Dope Game" is his "Rubberband Man," an unapologetic dopeseller anthem produced by the upandcoming twoheaded Kickdrums (also from Cleveland), while the following "Better Way" (featuring Beanie Sigel) flips the feeling completely, addressing single mothers, jailed fathers, and slain sons. "F Amerikkka" is as sharp and vicious as anything dropped by Ice Cube or Paris: "You travel space, other planets, lookin' for Martians/Kids in your own fckin' cities is starvin'/And sendin' money to feed people in the Third World country/Motherfckers sleepin' on the street, dirty and hungry." If T.I. is the JayZ of the South, Ray Cash is the T.I. of the Midwest. Cash alludes to this title in "P.A.N." while denouncing bubblegum rap and claiming to have the game wrapped. Another indication that Cash has some nerve is that he was badmouthing his label before this album's release, declaring that it doesn't know what to do with him. There's no denying that the rest of his career (and it ought to be a lengthy one) should be well worth watching. - Andy Kellman, All Music Guide |

Ray Cash Biography
Given his country slang and drawl plus his edgy, baritone voice, many would think Ray Cash hails from somewhere in the Deep South. However, he is from Cleveland, OH, which has meant that he has had to steer away from the shadows of Cleveland's only o...Full Ray Cash Biography

Pros: Hot production and meaningful lyrics
Cons: You would never know he was from Cleveland if he didn't rep his city
I don't get into a lot rap but I got this CD from my job yesterday and I thought I would give Ray Cash a listen since he is from my hometown. What I discovered is COD (name of his CD) was a definite keeper. You can hear the southern flavored production beating throughout this entire CD. I popped this CD in during my workout and didn't skip not one song. This dude's lyrics were a breathe of fresh air from the recycled garbage that is currently being played. This man Ray hits on political issues, women issues, to his former occupational hazard. Overall this COD is one to keep in rotation!! ...
