Legal Drug Money covers the same themes that so many other hip-hop artists were covering in the mid-'90s. The Lost Boyz rap about getting high, being rich, and other topics typical of the genre. The best track on this album is easily "Renee," a song about a woman who fell in love with an MC but gets killed. It's a really good piece; unfortunately, the rest of the album isn't as good. One might opt for Smif-n-Wessun's Dah Shinin or Heltah Skeltah's Nocturnal instead of this recording, as both are similar in style to Legal Drug Money but much better albums.
