Comments: The solo debut by Dogg Pound MC Kurupt. It's not a bad album, but it could have been made much better by just cuttin' shit out. There's too much extra shit, like interludes, shout-outs, just talking & a few songs that kinda suck. If you just get rid of all that shit, you'd have a pretty damn good album. It's definitely got some good production by Dr. Dre, Daz, Warren G, Soopafly & Devanté. The best songs are Disc 1: 1, 5, 6, 8, 11 & 12. Disc 2: 3, 5, 7, 9, 10 & 11. - D

Review: Kurupt's long awaited debut is a double disc, a West Coast CD and an East Coast CD, although the sound is not much different between the two. All in all it is a pretty good album but not as good as I expected. Out of the 23 songs there are 3 I never listen to and 3 or 4 more that are ok, the rest are quality, which leads to the fact that this could have been a 16 or 17 song classic... Production is handled by a large number of people and is pretty good. D-Moet does 4, Battlecat, Devanté, Daz Dillinger, Storm all do 2, and Dr. Dre, Kurupt, Soopafly, RJ Rice, Easy Mo Bee, Studio Tone, Twin, Warren G, MED all do 1, and 2 producers aren't listed. He has 7 solo songs out of the 23. A little below his Space Boogie and a little more below his classic Tha Streetz Iz A Mutha but still a good 4 star album to have in your collection.
