E-40 - Grit & Grind
Reviewed By: Blutarski
- This track gets the album started off right with a knoccin ass
beat!!! E-40 rips the whole way through the track. He flows about how he
gets his lyrics taken by mainstream artists and gets no credit. He also
flows about how the Bay Area gets no love in the rap scene. I'm feeling
this track to the fullest, one of my favorites.
- A pretty good beat to this track. Some nice production and good
lyrics from 40. He raps about his flows and how his music knoccs. A good
hook and nice lyrics all the way around. A good track overall, I'm
feeling it.
- he track that gets all the play on the radio and TV. 40 and
Fabolous rip up the mic to a knoccin ass track. The beat gets your head
going and both rappers flow perfectly to some tight production. If you
haven't heard this yet you need to knocc it hard!!
- This track has that Down South feel to it. I'm not really feeling
that feel on an E-40 album, but it's still a clean track. The beat is
hard and knoccs, but the track could of done without all the shouting. I
like 40 and Petey Pablo the best. A coo track overall, although I don't
really thinks it fits too well on a 40 album.
- More clean production and knoccin beat to go along with it. E-40
rips up the mic perfectly to the production and gets your head moving.
40 flows about those who want to make it in the rap game, but don't got
what it takes. A tight track that's not just spittin, but actually a
message about the game. Tight track overall.
- I don't like the pace of this track. It doesn't even sound like a
rap song that much to me. It has more of an R&B and slow rock song
feel to it. E-40 has a slower pace flow on this one that I'm not feeling
too much. Kokane has some nice vocals on the hook, but I'm not feeling
this track too much.
- E-40 talks to his son about the rims on his car. This skit is
hilarious the way his son talks.
- y favorite track on the album. The beat knoccs hard and 40 rips the
whole way through. The production is so tight. The beat gets your head
moving. The hook is tight and I'm feeling all 40's lyrics. Can't really
say enough about this track, so just bump it loud cause it's tight!
- Suga T and 40 flow well with each other. The beat is alright, but
nothing really special and the production is coo. I like the piano in
the background. A decent track, but really nothing special.
- Another knoccin track. This one has a bit of a slower pace to it,
but it works for me. 40 starts if off with a coo flow. The hook is tight
and the production and beat overall gets your head moving. I'm feeling
Keak's flow and Harm comes clean as well. A good track overall, I'm
feeling it.
- 40 flows about his lifestyle. He spits some coo lyrics, but mainly
it's just describing what his life is like. A slower pace to this track.
Nice production and a good beat that's gets your head into the track. 40
spits some coo lyrics. A good track overall.
- A slow knoccin beat that gets your head moving. Bosko has some nice
vocals. I don't like E-40's flow as much as Bosko or Suga Free. The
computer effects throughout the track are tight. Great production, nice
flows and knoccin beat, what more could you ask for? I'm feeling this
track to the fullest.
- I don't like the background effect on this one. 40 spits some alright lyrics, but it's not his best work. I don't like the
vocals on the hook either. Overall it's not a very good track, skip it.
- Back to another knoccin beat! It gets your head moving and then 40 comes in and spits some tight shit. He flows
about the gangsta life being a man's game and to get out if you can't handle it. The beat is the best part of this track,
but 40 rips the whole way through as well. A good track overall, I'm feeling it.
- Stomp Down just talks a little bit. Just a little intro to the next track.
- Some nice production that gives an old school feel to the track. 40 flows about being a pimp, playa, hustla and gangsta.
Nice vocals on the hook by Levitti. A coo old school type of track, I'm feeling it.
- This track has some old school background music and production. It has that '70s funk style to the production. 40 has
some nice laid back lyrics that fit well with the beat and production. A nice laid back track to listen to.
- A nice coo little beat to this one. I'm not a big fan of Afroman, but he has some nice vocals on this track. Of course 40
and B-Legit rip up the mic. It might have been better as just a 40 and B-Legit duo, but Afroman holds his own and
comes with nice vocals on the hook. A good track to end the album with.
Overall this isn't 40's best album of all time, but I really liked it. There was a wide range of featured artists from around
the country. The production was clean and there was only about three or four tracks I didn't like. 40 flows about some
good topics and the addition of some mainstream artists means that this album should get some play on radios across
the country and not jus the West Coast. A solid album overall, I'm feeling it.
