  • Makaveli - The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory
    Take trip back to 1996 with us as we break down 2Pac's, Or Makaveli's, The Don Killuminati: 7 Day Theory. This album dropped just after 2Pac's death. It was a darker record with an underground feel. Politics, beef and mystery bleed from this record. We talk all about it.

    No Limit Records biting Pac, Dr.Dre's Aftermath, Nas and more!

  • Esham: Bruce Wayne (Gothom City 1987)
    In 1997, Esham put out one of his most underrated records: Bruce Wayne (Gothom City 1987). Esham was introducing a new sound after his equipment got stolen and his team got smaller. What we got in return was a record influenced by his street life, strip club adventures and cash hungry lyrics. The RLP crew contributes to several tracks and E tries his hand at some R&B even! Esham’s lyrical ability shines brighter then ever on this record. Take a trip to Gotham City 1987.

  • Above The Law: Time Will Reveal
    This was Above The Law's masterpiece. 1996 was a hell of a year in the Rap landscape. Many classics dropped, but there is only one Above The Law. Cold187um AKA Hutch, was a master of many classics in the mid 90's. Arguably the best producer of the West Coast. Checkout Time Will Reveal with us while we talk the beats, the features, the landscape of the West Coast. How much of this was actually made in the Ruthless era? You might think twice if you think it wasn't. R.I.P. KMG!

  • West Side Connection: Bow Down
    October 22nd, 1996, The West Side Connection dropped their debut album and it was fire. Formed of Ice Cube, Mack 10 and W.C., They collectively dropped their dopest lines on this gem. It's a record that demanded respect from the world. The West Coast was not to be forgotten, on their watch. We talk beats, lyrics and the West Coast / East Coast beef culture that was in 1996.

  • Bone Thugs-n-Harmony: Creepin on ah Come Up
    It's 1994 and Ruthless Records is about to unload hit after hit on the world. Eazy-E brings a new act to the table, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony. A new sounds is introduced to the world and Eric Wright struck gold. For what we consider Bone's debut record, it's amazing. It was a brand new style that helped evolve the rap game.
