He's crunk to the core and has delivered one of the genre's few great full-lengths. In eight years of major label releases though, Lil Wyte has been relentlessly thugging to a degree even Three 6 Mafia has to be impessed by. Maybe it's that Lil Wyte couldn't do it any other way. Maybe it's producers DJ Paul and Juicy J who work on all the tracks but still keep things fresh. Maybe it's the guest stars, all from Wyte's hood and all straight crunk. Lil Wyte is one of crunk's greatest champions and even a major label can't make him stray from releasing a street-worthy album. Not to worry, tracks like "I Did 'Em Wrong," "My Cutlass," and "Icy Whites Soljas" are so alive they're hard to resist if you have even the slightest taste for that brash and minimal sound from the South. "Static Addict" is a halfway successful attempt to keep the momentum going and the only time the album's party chants are standard issue. "I Sho Will" is the monolithic kickoff single with rolling bass, a gripping chorus, and the right amount of punch to announce Wyte's arrival. He's more concerned with giving it raw and getting the party started, and Phinally Phamous does just that. He's just not a troubled soul like Eminem.
Not that Lil Wyte can't make a point or two. Three 6 Mafia members Juicy J and DJ Paul signed the under-21 rapper immediately after the groups. The group fell apart but the Memphis-based Wyte was too skilled to be stopped. From start to finish, Phinally Phamous is hard, filled with street beats to make your head bob, and more fun than filling. When the quick-rapping, crunk to the core Lil Wyte first came to the attention of Three 6 Mafia it was with an all-white group of which Wyte was a member.

Not bad, and while mainstream rap fans won't find much to holler about here, crunk fans with a taste for underground beats will be supersatisfied. Lil Wyte, Wiley Doe, Hard Target - 'Take Me Away' Audio Only Monday 8th October, 2018 by Scottie D. With a rapid mouth and an attitude that's straight-up crunk, Lil Wyte came out of nowhere, landed his "My Smoking Song" on every Southern mixtape that mattered, and ended up one of the flagship artists on the revitalized Asylum label.
