May 31, 2021 Snoop Dogg: The Blue Carpet Treatment
On November21, 2006, In the shadow of a Suge Knight prison release, Snoop Dogg drops "The Blue Carpet Treatment". The album has a wide variety of producers and Nate Dogg has one of his final features. Snoop was hit or miss the few years prior to this album. We think this was his bounce back from the "slump". It's a long record but has something for everybody and still manages to be a real dope solid effort. Check out our thoughts.
Other topics: Suge Knight, Arsenio Hall, DJ Quik, Nate Dogg R.I.P.

May 03, 2021 Yukmouth : Thug Lord - The New Testament
On this episode we dive deep into Yukmouth's 2001, Thug Lord: The New Testament. The album has some of the most gangsta shit you will ever hear! Production on this record is off the hook. Rap-A-Lot was on fire around this time and Yuk was in complete control on this record. After his first album on Rap-A-Lot Records (Thugged Out: The Albulation), how do we score his sophomore effort?

April 12, 2021 Eazy-E: 5150 Home 4 Tha Sick
It's 1992 and Eazy-E drops 5150 Home 4 Tha Sick! His 2nd effort and it's a Maxi Single. Eazy dropped this album without the help of Dr.Dre as N.W.A. was fresh of splitting up and Death Row was a new unheard of label. With that, we get some dope producers stepping up! Cold187um, Madness4Real and so even Naughty By Nature. We give our thoughts on the record, the cameos and the landscape of gangsta rap. Check it out!
