Data Insight

The first album with credits on it, and they are unambiguous: thirteen of the fourteen tracks name Kaine and D-Roc together, with Mr. Collipark as the third name on most lines. The one exception is the opener "Them Braves", credited to Mr. Collipark alone. Guests are credited for their own verses, which is why Trick Daddy, Bone Crusher and Killer Mike appear on the tracks they rap on.

Me & My Brother is the Ying Yang Twins' third album and their first for TVT, released in September 2003. It debuted at number 11 on the Billboard 200 and was certified platinum in 2005. Mr. Collipark produced most of it, with Lil Jon and Derrick Williams contributing, and it produced "Salt Shaker", "Naggin'" and "What's Happenin!".
