Paul Wall Fast Life

Fast Life may be a misleading title, as Houston, Texas MC Paul Wall took his time on his third album. "We went back to the drawing board and came up with a new album," he said about the slow production pace on the release for Asylum. On the follow up to 2007's Get Money Stay True, the Grammy-nominated artist and former protégé of Chamillionaire is assisted by a talented cast of MCs and production hands, including Travis Barker, Akon, and Too Short. The album is also a chance for Paul Wall to debut his new rap group, Expensive Taste.
