Ghetto D is the sixth studio album by rapper Master P. One of the songs in Ghetto D, "Make 'Em Say Uhh!", is ranked at #36 on Blender's list of the "50 Worst Songs Ever", [1] and at #60 on the list of the 100 Worst Songs Ever by Matthew Wilkening of AOL Radio. [2] In 2008, it ranked #94 on VH1's 100 Greatest Songs of Hip Hop. "Here We Go", featuring Mystikal and Fiend, was a b-side, released on the "I Miss My Homies" single. The album was certified 3x Platinum on August 4, 2006.

Controversy

The original album cover, which depicted a crack addict sitting on a curb and smoking from a glass pipe, was recalled from store shelves. It was promptly replaced by the collage style cover.

The album was originally titled Ghetto Dope but was shortened to the current title before release due to the drug reference in the aforementioned title.

Chart performance

The album became the biggest-selling of Master P's career, peaking at #1 on the Billboard 200 and Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts. It was mainly on the strength of the three singles released; "I Miss My Homies" (US #11), "Make 'Em Say Uhh!" (US #7), and "Burbons and Lacs" (US #3) all became hit singles in the years 1997-1998. "Gangstas Need Love" samples Diana Ross's hit single "Missing You", while "I Miss My Homies" samples The O'Jays' song "Brandy" from the album So Full of Love.
