Rated 5/5

Review by _Hawk_ Aug 05, 2004 (edited over 5 years ago)

This is really a great album. Although I think it's more a collection of outtakes, it's full with raw beats, infectious grooves and freestyle raps. The Neptunes produced this gem with the same attitude as with Eclipse's "Grindin", so it's streetfunk all over.

'VA Banga' is a Skillz rap over the backbeat of Rosco P. Coldchain's "Hot". 'Grindin' freestyle' is just what the title says: it's a superb freestyle rap over the backbeat of "Grindin". And 'Ladies & Gentlemen' uses Justin Timberlake's "Senorita" in full effect.

The versions are short (I guess about 3 minutes each), but it's really worth to score this lp. I was lucky to pick it up in a Hip Hop recordstore, haven't seen it yet since ... Buy !
