I wish there would have been more D-Sane slaps on there, but the album was hot.....my favorite cut by far is "Hustlaz Prayer".....that cut is hard as fuck.....the chorus is off the chains.....How did you link up with the Gin Blossoms for that? I've never really listened to their shit before.....is their music cool?
@CRANKY-MY ALBUM WAS BASICALLY DONE BY THE TIME I HOOKED UP WIT D-SANE,OR HE PROLLY WOULDA DONE MORE THAN THE INTRO,BUT U MUST ADMIT,HE DID A PRETTY MEMORABLE INTRO...
AS FOR ROBIN (GINBLOSSOMS HOOKUP- IT WAS REALLY JUST A CHANCE MEETING..I WAZ LIVIN OUT IN PHX ARIZONA,AND WAS LOOKIN FOR A STUDIO TO RECORD IN..I RAN ACROSS A SMALL STUDIO NEAR ASU...I WENT THRU THERE AND WAS GOING THRU SOME OF MY ADATS,AND HE HEARD THAT SONG,AND GRABBED HIS GUITAR AND STARTED PLAYIN TO IT,THEN SAID HE HAD NEVER WORKED WITH A RAPPER,SO I SCRIBBLED OUT THA HOOK IN LIKE 3 MINUTES,AND HE LAID IT ,AND PUT DOWN THAT LIVE GUITAR ON THA TRACK....
NO I PERSONALLY HAVENT HEARD ALOT OF THIER MUSIC,I DID HEAR A FEW SONGS.I GUESS IF YOUR INTO THEY ARE GOOD...IKNOW OVER THEIR CAREER THEY SOLD LIKE 4 MILLION
@ILLSTATE-THNX FOR THA FEEDBACK..I AGREE...CODE OF THA STREET WAS BASICALLY MY AWOL ALBUM WITH A FEW NEW SONGS...THOSE SONGS WERE ALL RECORDE BETWEEN 1998-BEGINNIN OF 2002-THEN DIDNT COME OUT TILL JUNE2003-SO U DO THE MATH...THE WCMGANG AND THE LAC WAS MOSTLY LATE O3-04,AND THEN MY NEW SHIT IS ON SOME MORE COMMERCIAL SHIT,SINCE I BEEN TRYNA GET A SIGNED TO A MAJOR....

151 - Code of tha Street
151 - Code of tha Street is one of my favorite albums. To me, the sign that it is a great album is that every time I listen to it, I like it more. When I first bought it, I think I skimmed through it pretty quickly and I think the only cuts I really went back to and bumped were "Throw It Up" and "West Coast." I also didn't really know you were reppin the NW, I thought you were just a Cali guy (w/ the Clippers jersey and LA map on the cd), then I figured out when I listen to the lyrics more you really do rep the S.E.A. and I guess are one of those guys who shoots back and forth up and down the West Coast.
One day last year I was on a long ass bus ride from Iowa to Minneapolis and I had the 151 cd in there and the bus ride was so long I really did soak the album, and I discovered that "Hustlaz Prayer" is such an amazing cut, especially the chorus. It was dark, there was pretty violent thunder and lightning outside and I was on this bus, it is probably one of the more memorable connections I have with a song to a sitaution. I'll always remember that, I must've bumped it like 20 times from Des Moines to Minneapolis.
Then last May I started lovin "Thug Entrapeneurz," great great song and I couldn't wait to get home to Seattle for the summer and drive around the city bumpin it. That was probably my favorite song last June.
And yes, D-Sane did lace an amazing intro. That's what made me buy the album b/c I heard the intro on northern-ridaz and I'd just sit there on my computer and keep listening to the stream. Then I saw it in a CD store here in Minnesota and got excited, immediately copped it.
But w/ the album as a whole, I like it today much much more than the day I bought it, that's one sign of an excellent album.
Then I learn 151 goes on to be in tha Lac, do the best Seattle anthem of all time (Dirty South from the Lac), man keep doing your thing you're a very talented person.
