good album too bad deathrow's glory days are behind them
good thing kurupt and dpg is reunited but you qwanna hear the outtakes listen to the ep version on youtube where kurupt diss snoop, badazz, daz, and soopafly on no vaseline2 there's a track featuring kokane too. god album after this kurupt left tha row once again this wass deathrow's lasdt stand anyway suge knight lost crooked i, spider loc and signing petey pablo did'nt mean jack anyway kurupt, roscoe, and the row's last few troops give it their all. .


Go hard or go home!
Filler: Im back(sucked on Dysfunktional Family Soundtrack and it sucks now), Jealousy(wack plus MOP's verses were off big time), Hustlin(wack cipher), Can you feel it(wack club record that falls short) etc. Standout tracks: ANARCHY 87, THROW BACK MUZIC 86, DEEP DISHES, SLIDE N SLIDE OUT(where's Kurupt?), MY HOMEBOYS, BULLS**T AND NONSENSE(again where's Kurupt?), CALICO and YOU F****N WITH THE BEST. Bottom Line: We are going to have to come to grips with the fact that Kurupt hasnt been the same since he left Deathrow and changed his style around. He went back to Deathrow but he still has the same schlocky rap style he had out of the record company. Songs like Speak on it and Tha Past would be good but its ruined by his retarded flow. Beware of any album that comes out of Deathrow nowadays! One last note: You f****n with the best is also on Bang Em and Domination's album God Giveth and God Taketh Away. Pick that album up its not a disappointment like this one.


Ok but not that good
Only some hot songs on here. Ok album. Worth the money tho. Best songs are Calico, Throwback Music, Anarchy 87, and Homeboys. Rest of tracks are str8 and some are wack. Not as good as dpg's Dogg Food tho. .


Kurupt Can Do Better {3 Stars}
The fact that this album was pushed back for three of those years comes through on some of the songs as they sound outdated with their generic rhythms and dated topics. Kurupt's first studio release in four years seems sort of unpolished and rushed. The production is distinctly west coast and allows Kurupt to spew his trademark venom in vintage west coast fashion. Some of the songs start to sound the same toward the middle of the album and other songs tackle generic topics like "beef". That can make things seem dry and boring. Guest appearances include Eastwood, Young Tone, Roscoe, The Dayton Family, Spider Loc, Big Tri, Domination, and Tupac.


my favorite album right now
it's almost all good. i didn't like this album that much when i first got it but i gave it a chance and i grew to love it. great combination of old-school-gangsta-death-row-sound, unexpected lyrics, easy-listening-2pac-type flows. give it a try.

i wish they promoted it. i wanted to see this do well. death row could have had a classic with a little promotion.
