WORST E-40 album EVER!
- Thread starter Old$chool
- Start date
just to add:
hyphy is for the club, the club needs hit singles; you can't play full-length albums there
=> you can't expect a hyphy album to be solid, it will have 2, 3 or 4 tight club tracks and the rest will be just filler; which is the case with last 40's
I don't have a beef with hyphy because it is the reason why new bay albums at least have these 3 or 4 good tracks while just a year or two ago they used to have exactly ZERO good tracks
but it also means that you can't expect any really good albums to come in the near future

Well, I've listened to the whole CD (finally got the chance to play the whole thing front-to-back last night), and my opinion is this:
First off, some folks on other threads have said that they think of the CD as being divided into like two parts: the West Coast/Hyphy/whatever else stuff on the first half, and more Southern-sounding tracks on the second half. Whether that's true or not, my opinion right now is that tracks #1 through #11 (although "White Girl" might be Southern-ish, I don't know) are fine, and 40's lyrics are on point. He spits well on a lot of these (especially "They Might Be Taping" and "Muscle Cars" among others), and while the production may get a little samey at times, the shit still bumps well in my ride. Hyphy or not, Tracks 1 through 11 are the best part of the CD.
However, the second half of the CD is where things go downhill a bit. I like three of these: "Just Fuckin'" is okay, and "She Says That She Loves Me" and "Happy 2 To Be Here" ring true (to me) lyrically. However, "U And Dat", "I'm Da Man", "Yee" and "Gimme Head" are just not the best songs that 40's done. I don't have a problem w/ the production or guests on these songs (I can even tolerate Mike Jones), but 40's verses on "I'm Da Man" and "Yee" seem awfully simplistic compared to what he does on the first half of the CD. As for "U And Dat" and "Gimme Head'", 40's lyrics on those are okay, but the choruses are annoying--maybe it's just me, but "Gimme Head" in particular goes on WAY too long! Those two probably should have been shortened a bit length-wise.
I think it's cool that 40 likes to reach out to the South, but I just think 40's had much better Southern-styled tracks and/or collabs w/Southern rappers on previous CDs--"Look At Me" (from CHARLIE HUSTLE), "Clown With It" (L&B), "Rep Yo City" (G&G), and "Anybody Can Get It" (BREAKING NEWS) all showed that 40 could "southern fry" his style (so to speak) with the best of them and still stay dope, whereas it seemed liked he simplified himself a little too much on MY GHETTO REPORT CARD's Southern tracks. Maybe I'll have to just keep playing those tracks and see if they grow on me any, I don't know.
So right now, I'd probably rate this about a 7 or 7.5/10. But again, it may grow on me later; I'll just have to wait and see. It's not his best, but I do hope 40 does well. Just my opinion, though.
PEACE!

I like the hyphy movement, i really do..
its just that with e-40 people expect that mobb shit from him, thats what he was known for...i would say for the past 3 albums e-40 fans have been scratching there heads tryin to figure out why he changed his style/and production selection...40 is just moving with the times...
but just because a few people think the album is bad still don't mean nothin..people are entitled to there opinions....and those same people who thought it was bad, they bought the album..i could understood you cats gettin mad if they bootlegged the shit and said it sucked lol

I'm a older cat and I like both the old smobbin' bumblez in the trunk studio ton mike mosley masterpieces and then I do like his newer stuff too. IMO I think Rick Rock is a overrated as a producer. His beats don't sound all that great to me. 40 keeps things flowin' lyrically and his beats are always changing, but when I look at my entire 40 collection. I don't think I feel any of his cds are complete garbage. I might say a couple of them are not as good as Federal or In A Major Way, but I still think overall his material is tight. I do wish we could have a old school Click cd again....some of that hillside mob shit...or even that so-called cd with just B-Legit and E-Feezy...it was suppose to be a duo type cd that never came out...
The bottom line to this whole topic (that's gone overboard), is that, it has nothing to do with being Old School or New School. It has nothing to do with who produced what...
It was one Cat's opinion about E-40's new album & he wasn't feeling it...fuck it.
...but MoFo's are quick to label each other "haters" & call each other out their name because some dudes on here ain't agreein' with everybody else.
Just because 40 blows the Bay MoFo's think they automaticaly are made & now the world know about your stompin' grounds. Think about it for a minute...y'all Homies got to keep doin' for ya-self.
Walk up to somebody & let em' know you from E-40's stompin' grounds, unless you doin' somethin' big the reply to that would be "AND?"
40 has been in the game a long time, had Pac on all his early stuff, was on Pac's All Eyez On Me, was in the movie 3 Strikes...plus & now he gettin' worldwide love? That shit is waaaaay overdue, but fuck it...better late than never huh?
Wether you like the new 40 or not, these back & forth post don't mean shit...that man is still out there doing his thang while everybody is bitchin' about stupid shit that ain't ever gonna come to an agreement.

TO THAT SQUARE ASS WANNA BE INTERNET THUG BITCH, NAV THE FAG:
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I ain't even gonna get into who would say what in a muthafucker's face. That's shit's for the streets, not the internet alright "gangsta." Quit tryin to prove to me how much of a thug you are you fuckin square. Don't talk about it, BE about it. Only the PHONIEST muthafucker would get tough over the internet, so thanks for showing how "real" you are. And quit sayin' nigga, punk, cuz your wannabe faggot ass don't look Black to me.
You find it "sad" that I didn't spend my money on a Brokeback Mountain dvd instead of on 40's CD? Only a straight up FAGGOT would say some shit like that. For real. I KNEW you wanted to suck E-40 up, you gay ass square.
Go back and read your first comments, you little hoe-cake. Your very first line is throwing insults in everyone's way that don't agree with your opinion. So Eat a dick (which I'm sure you do) and stop with the internet tough guy shit. That shit won't work on me son.
look kid i said brokeback mountain cuz u sound like a fuckin homo
and i wouldnt say nothin bout some street shit unless yo punkass didnt start comin sideways and sayin some shit i know u wouldnt say to nobodys face.
i aint bout talkin shit on no internet u the internet thug who started shouted out names u chump, if u ever wanna see me in real life jus let me kno im always down no question so let me kno if u tryna see me tuff guy.

Listen little Middle-Eastern kid,
Not that I HAVE to explain myself to you, but I'm a 32 year old grown man who was raised in the ghetto. You talk about beef? What beef? You don't know me you fuckin square. You're a JOKE to me. I could care less about your wannabe ass. You talk the talk online, but I HIGHLY doubt you walk the walk in real life. Cuz a REAL muthafucker don't HAVE to tell you they're real. And ANY real muthafucker would know that and feel me on that. So let's not even go there son. YOU started this WHOLE shit-talking business from that gate. Like I said, YOUR first post calls everyone a HATIN BITCH that don't agree with your opinion. You come on here, talkin tough guy shit on a message board as if that's supposed to scare anyone. But like I said, that shit won't work on me. You think throwin a hat on that says "The Bay" and tilting it sideways and sayin "nigga" in your posts makes you hard or down? You come on this bitch claiming all this street shit over and over and trying to tell me that I'M being an internet tough guy when YOU'RE the one who started posting about how gangsta you are? Trying to tell me that I don't know about the streets "yo?" What the fuck do you know about me kid? Nothing. I can tell by your tough guy comments, that I've been through a HELL of a whole lot more shit than you have, cuz again, only the phoniest muthafucker tries so hard to prove how tough they are. A REAL muthafucker doesn't have to cuz he KNOWS it. Bottom line is, you started with the shit-talking, I continued it. And no amount of your tough guy internet shit is gonna stop it. You know you ain't EVER gonna come see me anywhere. So why keep posting your laughable comments? It ain't doing nothing but driving in my point: That you're a silly kid, trying to be a hard ass with a muthafucker he doesn't know anything about.
