Customer Reviews:

Headz Still Ain't Reddee....{4 Stars}.......2006-09-07

I don't know what to say about this joint. When it dropped back in '99, it was pretty much ignored. Lyrically, the album is on point and features appearances from the entire BCC (Heltah Skeltah, Black Moon, OGC, Smif N' Wessun, The Representativz, Illa Noyz, Rustee Jux, etc..). In my mind, this is vintage BCC because, as a whole, they haven't come this hard ever since this dropped. Despite what you may think, Da Beatminerz don't handle all of the production even though most of the tracks have that dark Beatminerz kind of sound. Da Beatminerz only handle two of the fifteen tracks on the entire album. Baby Paul handles 2 joints while Mike Caren, JT, Shaleek, Don J, N.O.D., Trauma & Jugrunaut, Meophlese & Eeka Mouse, Jah Dan & B. Gord, Rob, Mega Hurtz, and BD 'N Boogie all contribute one track each. Like I said though, the sound is still that dark, grimy, bass heavy BCC sound. Personally, I love it because the production is great and all my favorites from the crew (Buckshot, Heltah Skeltah, & Starang) come through to do their thing and that Illa Noyz joint (Sleepers) is just plain awesome.

As far as flaws, there aren't many, but there are a couple. The album takes a nosedive toward the end and some of the songs fall under skip material in my humble opinion. Tracks like "BQE", "You Can't Fu** With Us" (is that G Funk?), and "Real Ni*** Sh**" just don't grab the ears of this listener. The rest of the album is free of blemishes

Duck Down Presents is a dope release from the BCC. I don't how this joint went unnoticed when it dropped, but '99 wasn't really a good year for real hip hop music. I recommend grabbing this joint if you come across it.

Buck and Dru continue to do..........1999-12-15

what alot of heads out there don't want them to do. Not compromise quality with the quantity of records sold. Alot of people got it twisted, especially the media, which are usually just speaking for the large players in the industry. Man, we as fans gotta let these fools know. FIrst off don't let no one tell you Duckdown ain't making money. They handle they own biz, and run their own company. Most of these rappers can't say dat. With dat said the Duckdown presents..is just that. A lil of the label's past and a lil of the label's future. My fav's are You can't uck with us, Jump Up, and BQE. Man this album is solid. Yall go buy dat and pick up the BDI thug which is steaming. These fools can't see. Duckdown is gaining momentum and with their new distribution deal, meaning more hot product from Brooklyn. Hope they seeing money like they should. them magazines can't handle us. They dont know what the fans want cuz they aint living like us. They betta Duckdown! Been ducking down since 92 at Home Bass.

bootcamp with a tight comeback!.......1999-10-21

*** all those idiot critics who slaughtered this album with bad ratings cuz they are the people who gave crappy artists like hotboyz(blaze) and made men(the source) good ratings.this album has some mad nice songs like "jump up" by blackmoon, "ultimate mc" by saukrates and heltah skeltah", "holocaust" by cocoa b'z, "eye of the scorpio" by rock and buckshot", "you can't *** with us" by buckshot and steele, "meditation" by the repz and the "whirlwind remix" by blackmoon which was only supposed to be a b-side of the whirlwind single but was added on this album probaly to make it even better!the only reason why i didn't give this album 5 stars is because it had a few week songs on it but still is a very impressive album!

You better DUCK DOWN.......1999-10-12

Duck Down once again showes that commercial rap get the gunn clapp!!!! This compilation is bangin!! underground !! and ruff just like DUCK DOWN is. I like most of the trax, Black Moon's - Jump Up is so hardcore and Buckshots flow over the beat is just incredible. Buck is anyway one of the most dopest Emceez to hit the rap game. More highlights of "da Album", OGC's Real N***** S*** - nuff said, Buck'n'Rock (on one track together!!)- Eye of the Scorpio, the remix of Worldwind - I don't know which version is phater, originoo one or the remix, and the new Rappers show their talent, like M.S and Hairy Balls with BQE and the Ill Illa Noyz with Sleepers. And to the Blaze Magazin's review: P.U.G. - PURE UNCUT GARBAGE!!!!!!!! DUCK DOWN 4 LIFE !!!!

Duck Down!.......1999-10-10

forget all the reviewz from blaze,source and the magazine that was rap pages on this album and go listen to this album at a record store and make your own judgement on this album, because i'm starting to wonder what the hell is wrong with these critics
