Though unlikely, the marriage of Dirty South forefathers Eightball & MJG and Bad Boy Records--including its resident impresario/superstar P. Diddy--is undeniably appealing. It's intriguing to see what one of the most successful NYC producers can do for a pair whose influence is woefully underestimated outside the South. If there's any shift from the gritty, distinctly Southern sound the duo has embodied in the past, it's imperceptible. Outside of P. Diddy's occasional interjected reminders that LIVING LEGENDS is a Bad Boy production, and the welcome smooth-R&B presence of 112 on the brilliantly funky "Trying to Get At You," the record appears to be largely on Eightball & MJG's own terms. Despite a three-year absence, the Memphis duo, who have traded rhymes since childhood, play off each other effortlessly. On tracks such as "When It's On," the twosome finish each other's thoughts like a lyrical relay team. Most of the record is packed with unyielding fury, making the final track, the ethereal and jazzy "Confessions," all the more starkly beautiful for its wistful reflection.
