AllMusic[1]

Organized Bass is the sixth studio album by American rapper and record producer Kilo Ali. It was released on July 29, 1997, via Interscope Records. The recording sessions took place at Synergy Studios and Purple Dragon Studios in Atlanta. The album was produced by Red Money, Cooly C, DJ Taz, Kool-Ace, Mr. Richards, and Kilo Ali, with King J and Organized Noize serving as executive producers. It features guest appearances from Big Boi, CeeLo Green, George Clinton, JT Money, and Kool-Ace.

The album debuted at number 173 on the Billboard 200, number 44 on the Top R&B Albums and number 9 on the Heatseekers Albums charts in the United States. It was supported with two singles: "Show Me Love" and "Baby, Baby", which peaked on the US Hot R&B Songs chart at numbers 86 and 77, respectively.

In June 2021, Kilo Ali filed the lawsuit for copyright infringement against NLE Choppa, Latto, Norva Denton and NLE Choppa Entertainment/Warner Music Group, claiming that NLE Choppa's song "Make Em Say" uses elements of Kilo's "Love In Ya Mouth" from the album.[2]
