Super Saucy (2005)

This Houston MC had one of 2003's squishiest pop-rap hits in ''Suga Suga,'' his collaboration with Latino crooner Frankie J. So it's disappointing that he spends much of Super Saucy unconvincingly asserting his gangsta bona fides — in ''Throwed Off,'' he lamely threatens to toss his drink in your face. Bash is best as an intentionally funny lover, dreaming — as on the title cut — of ''sipping on Apple Pucker'' schnapps over a wahwah groove John Mayer could dig.
