16 Years Ago Today: CHECKMATE (B.G.) #FreeBG

[LevelUp]

Checkmate is the sixth studio album by American rapper B.G. released on Cash Money Records. It was his last release with Cash Money Records. All production was done by producer Mannie Fresh. It features guest appearances from the Hot Boys, & the Big Tymers. The album debuted at #21 on the Billboard 200 with over 128,000 copies sold in its first week released[4] and was certified Gold by the RIAA a month later with over 500,000 copies sold.

VERY SLEPT ON even though it went Gold, Mannie's prduction was also slept on, all of the beats are unique and cold asf

I actually really enjoyed this album. Was on the fence about I Know when the single initially dropped but I ended up liking more tracks on this vs CCITG surprisingly. Almost all of it, really. Had it on replay quite a bit. Still have the OG CD too

FREE BG
