"Obie Trice, real name no gimmicks" or so say the song lyrics, but lets face it Got Some Teeth was a gimmick (albeit a very successful one). Having Eminem on side is all well and good but the acid test is being on the same page as pioneers of gangsta rap.
So a Dr Dre production and the voice of Nate Dogg is just about as clear an indication of Obie's quality as you can get. But forget the line-up, musically The Set Up has it all - tales from the hood, tight beats and a catchy hook.
One of the stand out tracks from Cheers, The Set Up will undoubtedly hit a chord with rap fans and the increasing number of converts to the genre. Only one question is left - will Nate Dogg ever do anything other than serve up brilliant choruses?
