Livin' in the 80's!.......2005-10-03

GREAT CD set!! I'm once again living in the 80's!!! My favorites are White Lines, LaDiDaDi, and Joy and Pain. It doesn't get any better than this.....

Good CD's .......2005-09-02

I got the box set for my birthday a couple years ago. All four CD's are pretty good. Some of my favorites are White Lines - Grand Master Flash, The Show - Doug E. Fresh, Childrens Story - Slick Rick, 6 N' The Mornin' - Ice T, Back to the Hotel - N 2 Deep, Freaky Tales - Too Short, and Aint no Future In Yo' Frontin - M.C. Breed.

Old School Rap, Vol 1-4.......2005-08-16

This box set really took me back to the good ol' days of the 1980's. I literally dance all around my room when I listen to the CD's! Each rap reminds me of a fun and special time in my life. This is a great collection! So many of the old school rappers are represented.A+++!

These young bucks don't know nuthin about REAL HIP HOP.......2004-10-22

I was looking at the reviews posted and I dont know what these people (kids) are talking about. I am a child of the 80's and I grew up listening to the songs on these albums. Every last one of the are bonafide hits-they rocked the parties I attended-and I still listen to them. Any real hip hop head would know not only the artists listed, (most of them have made songs that are considered classics) but they would also know the words to the songs. If you want a real education about real hip hop, buy this compilation. I didn't, because I already have all these songs, and most of them are on cassette-how about that. Don't let the other reviews deter you -these hits are timeless and were the hype before crunk and bling took over the culture.

Unknown DJ?.......2003-12-16

Grandmaster Flash an unknown DJ? That's why one reviewer slammed disc three. Jeez. Anyone who says that doesn't deserve to get to get to write a review about old school hip hop. Seriously. Do your homework. This mix is far from his best, but the fact that Flash mixed it makes this valuable to any fan of old school.
Man, I am still scratching my head. How does one of the most important pioneers of hip hop get relegated to the title of "unknown dj?" I think it is fascinating to see what were his favorite tracks, given that he more than likely influenced many of them.

Legendary Music Vol. 1 - 420 Review.......2007-04-10

First off, I have to say I'm really picky when it comes to music, and have very few CD's in my collection that I like to listen to all the way thru. LMvol.1 with the exception of maybe one song is one of those cd's. Another thing I like about this cd is that you don't have to be in a certain mood to listen to it. For me, this cd takes me through all my mood-sets. So whether I'm feelin like some mellow beats or fast-paced rhymes, this cd addresses that nicely.

LL crew still a step above..........2007-03-28

... and I apologize if I didn't always rise to occasion
I had to come of age and apply
My knowledge to my personal experiences,
If I didn't I could have died in all seriousness.

We've come far,
As a person, as a people, as a world
It's time to raise the bar.
It's not hard, just remember who you are...
It's not hard, just remember...

The last track - track 11 - is now my favorite hip hop song. If only it were longer than 3 1/2 minutes and two verses. The 2nd verse is for sure one to remember. If you're a real fan of hip hop or just music in general, please treat yourself and get this album. If you like 50 Cent and Eminem, don't bother. You're not going to hear songs about candy shops or being in da club. It's positive but not cheesy and stupid...

don't know what "huntercat" is talkin bout.......2007-01-25

Arata is tight, no doubt, & if you can track down some older Legends stuff with him on it check it out. That being said, he's not on this album. This is a compilation of songs from the Legends various solo releases in 2006.

Dope from the east.......2005-03-23

Arata is kicking. He is a Living Legend member from back in the day and this is his solo. Most of the rapping is in japanese and is really cool. Arata rapps a little english but is much better with his own language and flow. The beats are top notch and all the way around this is a solid CD. If you are a LL fan you will like Arata

A must have CD!.......2003-09-30

This CD is one of the must have CD's ever made! These songs bring me back memories from when I first started listening to the hip hop, rap and pop artist. If you are hesistant on buying a CD like this, I would recommend it, especially when your throwing a good party, its a CD you will definetely enjoy!

PARTY CD.......2003-07-15

Having originally purchased this on cassette (and VHS), it was inevitable that I buy it on CD (and DVD) when I upgraded. This is the perfect party CD (along with Volume 2) to pop into the player and crank up. It's a treat to listen to these old jams and you can always skip over the embarrassing stuff (Vanilla Ice). Turn it up.

Good........2002-08-08

This is a good album by MTV before MTV became all those TV shows and all about seriousness. This features many songs by famous artists at the time but not their major songs because if they wanted the big songs they would have picked "Straight Up" by Paula Abdul or "What's On your Mind" by Information Society. It features songs by artists that maybe no one has ever heard of which is good because we all need different music. I recommend this album. It is what made MTV famous in the first place.

A CD not to be forgotten, or missed!.......1998-11-28

MTV started off a beautiful thing when they released MTV party to go volume 1. Jam packed with hip hop classics as well as other memorable songs, this is a CD that will bring back memories, as well as becoming a time tested classic.

Nearly a decade into his career, Ice Cube remains at the forefront of gangsta rap--but when it comes to manipulating sounds, he sometimes seems one-dimensional, especially when compared with the likes of Snoop Doggy Dogg (who had a lot of help in that department from Cube's old N.W.A. mate Dr. Dre) and sample master Sean "Puffy" Combs. But on War & Peace, Vol. 1, Cube's first album in five years, the hip-hop renaissance man reestablishes himself as a kingpin in the studio as well as on the street. Every song is surrounded by minor-key melodies and moody flourishes that enhance the effect of the intimidating lyrics, and the overall sound of the mix is rich and deep. Cube doesn't stop there, however, adding touches such as a No Doubt sample loop on "War and Peace" and a queasy guitar riff on "Fuck Dying," compliments of neo-metal marauders Korn. Ice Cube plans to follow up The War Disc with The Peace Disc, which he says will be mellower and more ethereal, but for now, Cube remains the hardest in the game. --Jon Wiederhorn

Customer Reviews:

Ice Cube at his worst.......2007-06-14

Ice Cube was at his best in the days of Amerikkkaz Most Wanted, Death Certificate, The Preadator and Lethal Injection. He kept it gangsta but at least he slipped you some solid gems through the music. Unfortunately this album is not even touching those albums whether in content or production. Although I understand why he had to back down, I dont understand why would he make himself a laughing stock with this album. The Good: In the song Ghetto Vet(which was also in the I Got The Hook Up soundtrack) Ice Cube talks about being paralyzed by gun violence and songs like 3 Strikes You In and Penitentiary remind you vaguely of the old school Ice Cube. The Bad: Pushin Weight was a stupid single and Mr Short Khop sucks! Greed sucked on the Gang Related soundtrack and it sucks now. Ice Cube destroys any fond memories of Once Upon A Time In The Projects with a weak sequel and Cash Over *** will have tapping the skip button with the quickness. The Ugly: Dr. Frankenstein could have been the number 1 contender for the worst song on the album until......I heard the terrible F*** Dying(featuring Korn)! The worst rock/rap infusion ever made and what was Cube thinking making songs with Korn? Limos Demos and Bimbos and X-******* are Ice Cube at his sophomoric worst but as bad as they are they are pale in comparison to the grotesque If I Was F****** You. Bottom Line: This album is a disgrace to the west coast veteran and is Ice Cube's worst album ever. The production was lame and Ice Cube kept talking about the main stuff. Dont mistake this album as Ice Cube's best and all you bay-bay kids that keep saying that he stopped making good albums after The Predator need to check yourself. Lethal Injection will still be reached for after all these years when War And Peace Vol 1 will be catching dust like it should.

An Underrated Disc From The Father Of Gangsta Rap (4.5).......2006-09-23

Ice Cube made a very solid return to the rap game after a 5 year hiatus with his War Disc, where he promptly confronts ghetto difficulties. While doing so, he reaffirms his status as a premier rapper in the game today with hard, angry rap deliveries over some very nice beats. Ice Cube his just returned now with his latest studio album "Laugh Now, Cry Later" too which boasts some great tracks as well.

"Ask About Me" is a powerful opener, with a vibing instrumental beat and Cube spitting his lyrics strongly. "Pushin' Weight" is a good track where Cube explains how he's still holdin' it down in the game with his rhymes. "Dr. Frankenstein" is another tight track featuring Mr. Short Kop for another appearance on the album. "War and Peace" sees Ice Cube suggesting that peace is needed for all and he states "Westside for life but still down with the East". "Ghetto Vet" may be my favourite rap cut on the album where Cube takes a setting of a hospital describing a scene of contemplating suicide while near death. "Greed" is a heavy gangsta cut to follow it up, then Ice Cube moves into lyrics about money with "Cash Over A**" and "The Curse Of Money." The last few songs on this album are some of the best, which include "Extradition", a track laced with a sweet beat, "Penitentiary" and "3 Strikes You In", an aggressive cut.

Overall, this is a fairly strong rap release from Ice Cube who doesn't touch on anything political but rather spits about the hood as usual in a variety of ways. Lyrically he most often on the mark and his voice sounds mature and very strong. Recommended to any Ice Cube fan.

One of the best from Cube........2006-03-24

Well this album might not be as good as Death Certificate or The Predator but it still is a great album from Cube. When I first heard The War disc I liked it but not alot. I finally got around to hear the album again and I started to enjoy it more. Cube takes over as producer in the war disc and he does a good job at it too. Songs like Cash Over A$$ is one of my favorite songs on the album. X-B!%@#'s is another good track from cube. I understand alot of Cube fans not likeing the album much. When you hear Amerikkas Most Wanted, Death Certificate or Predator, he talks alot about racism, struggles in the hood, and violence. In The War Disc he talks the cost's of fame and money, example: Greed, The Curse of Money, and Limos Demos and Bimbos. Also he talks about all the haters and women going out being gold diggers, example: X-B!%@#'s and Cash over A$$. Some stuff he talks about the hood and violence, like Ghetto Vet, 3 Strikes You In, Once Upon A Time In The Projects 2, and Penitentiary. I recommend this album to anyone who likes Cube or is just a big Rap fan. Get this instead of The Peace album because that album isn't Ice Cube's best work. Can't wait for the new album Laugh Now Cry Later out June 6.

As Chuck D. put it, "most of my heroes don't appear on no stamps." But quite a few of them have been signed to Def Jam records. Aside from a brief period in the early '90s (anyone remember Downtown Science?), rap's premier label has remained ahead of the game for the past 15 years. Proof positive is this collection. Starting with LL Cool J's classic "Radio," it gathers many of the label's early hits--singles that were wildly successful at a time when hip-hop didn't have many commercially viable outlets--along with several of its new generation platinum-plus selections.

Besides the well-chosen inclusion of Domino's sadly overlooked "Getto Jam" and Oran "Juice" Jones's classic "The Rain," there aren't many surprises in the lineup, which is a good thing. From EPMD to Jay-Z, all the songs you wanna hear are right here. On the minus side, 3rd Bass and Nice and Smooth could have been better represented, and we could have done without the Foxy Brown and Ja Rule tracks. All told, however, this is a bit of History worth owning. --Rebecca Levine

Def Jam Needs To Open The Vaults (Rating: 5 out of 10- -2.5 stars).......2007-05-29

With a title like "Def Jam 1985-2001: The History Of Hip Hop, Vol. 1" you would think that they would take you through the history of their record company over a 16 year period. Well they do...sort of. Since '85 (the year I was born), Def Jam has had a major spin of artists that were on their roster, that had big hits. Artists like LL Cool J, The Beastie Boys, and Public Enemy really held down the company through the mid to late 80's with chart topping singles like "Radio", "Fight For Your Right" and "Fight The Power" respectively. Some of the lesser known artists from the 80's were on here as well like Oran "Juice" Jones with his song "The Rain" (the reason I bought this album, because I couldn't find the song anywhere else). Then in the 90's they have most of the artists who are currently hanging around today like Jay-Z (of course), DMX, Redman, Method Man, Foxy Brown. Most of them all scored hits and chart topping singles with the songs on here.

So why such a low rating? Good question. Every one of these song here bang, but this doesn't cover all of Def Jam's roster within the 16 year period. You're probably thinking that as big as Def Jam was, everybody wouldn't be able to fit on one CD. True, but the problem that I have is that most of these songs are easily accessable, with the exception of a few, and mostly on their solo albums. Notice how there are few artists from the west coast on here. In fact there are only two; Warren G. and Domino. Many people may not know that Def Jam left out a boat load of artists who had singles just as good as the ones on here and could have blown up if they had the correct promotion. Artists like Jayo Felony, Richie Rich, South Central Cartel (just to name a few) had banging singles just as the ones on this CD, but suffered poor promotion back in the 90's. Who ever was on Def Jam's marketing team should have been fired. Those people should have a place on this album as well as others that should be accessable to fans of Def Jam at a reasonable price. It sucks that we are given a CD full of people that everybody knows (not to mention there are aready a few other Def Jam Greatest Hits CD's that are floating around). Most of these songs were already played into the ground back in the day, and fans already have the albums that these songs are on.

What I'm trying to say is that Def Jam needs to expose the artists that they just forgot back in the day, not to mention let their albums go out of print. Here are some of the albums/artists who suffered poor promotion that didn't make it on the album: Take a Ride, All Day Everyday, Conversation, Seasoned Veteran, This Is the Shack, just to name a few. Given those album might not have had banging singles like the ones on this album, but if they had the proper promotion and air play, they would have gold/platnum plaques. Some of the lesser know artists get exposed on the Def Jam Music Group Inc.: 10th Year Anniversary, but not all of them...let alone paying a high price for that. It sucks that Def Jam has forgotten a chunk of their roster, and doing whatever it can to make sure they stay forgotten by not putting them on this LP. Buy this if you're looking for some old big name hits by big name artists at the time the songs came out. But you can make a Def Jam Greatest Hits CD yourself, and not spend any money on this here. Hopefully Def Jam will open their vaults, and dig deeper to expose fans of artists that they forgot on the "History of Hip Hop, Vol. 2" album, but with all the new artists and it's new management, there is a lesser chance of that happening. Peace.

good.......2005-03-30

this is a good compilation but where the hell is t la rock and jazzy jay's it's yours? thats a rap classic for sure and i reckon def jam's first record should at least be on the greatest hits. its not on here and it ain't on the other one either. WTF?!?

Def Jam Classics.......2001-08-10

Def Jam has developed the reputation of being the staple of hip-hop music. From the days when LL Cool J and the Beastie Boys ruled the airwaves to the modern times of Ja Rule and Method Man, theyv'e always been able to sign the superstar artists. Def Jam's History of Hip-Hop compilation captures the shining moments of their time as rap's dominant label in one album. Only the classic rap anthems make the record.Slick Rick's "Children Story" and EPMD's "Crossover" are too joints alone that make this album a must have. Throw in the G-funk of Warren G and Nate Dogg's Long Beach duet "Regulate", Jay-Z's club-banger "Can I Get A" and Mary J and Method Man's "All I Need Remix" and there are just too many jewels to pass up. All of these tracks belong on any bodys musical collection and theres no better way to get them than in one dope cd.

REVIEW.......2001-02-20

This is a great CD with alot of good songs on it, spanning three decades. It has a variety of different styles and doesn't get old. It is great for me because I like new music as well as old school music.

I mean you have old school stuff like Public Enemy and the Beastie Boys, new school stuff like Jay-Z and Ja Rule, plus all of the isht in the middle. Thing is destined for stardom! Yeah, well I guess that's all there is to say.

3.5 star album from the "Eastsidaz".......2006-11-21

Their 3rd group album, if you want to call it that, comes 4 years after thier 2nd and best album. Most of these seem like they are from 2000 - 2001 time frame and just were never used. With 17 songs, you get some more of the Eastsidaz, Goldie Loc is on all 17 songs, Tray Deee is on 15 and Snoop is only on 7. Other guests drop in on about half teh songs as well. Of the 17 songs, 1 is almost a classic, 1 I skip, 7 are ok and the other 8 are good, nothing great though. Production credits aren't given but I know Battlecat does a few songs and Jelly Roll does at least 1. For their fans I'd cop this but they have much better work. As usual Tray Deee far outshines Goldie Loc with his nice raspy gangsta voice and tight flow, Goldie is average at best once again.

Hot!...But..........2005-11-13

This is a weird CD. Not musically weird, because it may be one of the best recordings to come out of the west coast hip-hop scene in the last year or two (along with The Game's "The Documentary & Warren G's "In The Midnight Hour"). But weird in the fact that it seemingly came out of nowhere & the CD itself gives no clue as to it's origin. There are no liner notes, production credits or any information as to when or where it was recorded. The sound quality is excellent which is what matters most, but otherwise, this is very cheaply put together, for some reason. Even the cover photo of the group is out of focus. By all accounts, this is all new, or at least relatively new Eastsidaz material. Most of the usual suspects pop up for some good collabos. Nate Dogg, MC Ren(!), Kokane, Suga Free & even Redman guest on various tracks. Even familiar themes & skits, like the "WBallz" radio spots are included. However, the CD suffers to a degree, because there is about a 8 second silence between tracks which makes the flow of the album non-existent. Also, the sequencing is a little off as well. Max "The Mack" Julien has a great skit in the middle of the disc, but it would have been even better if it had been the CD's intro. There's also two bonus tracks, that go uncredited entirely. Some featured artist on certain tracks are uncredited also. Never mind all the minuses, though. True DPGC fans will be feeling this. With the exception of "Vegetarian" which is kind of a wack track that champions eating pork(?), it's tight all the way through. If it could find major label distrubution, and fix it's minor issues, this could be considered near classic material.

THIS ISN'T A REVIEW, IT'S A QUESTION.......2006-05-03

I was just listening to the 30: sample of short side, and b**wjob betty, and they both sound EXACTLY the same. Does anyone know if the b**wjob betty on the Greatest Hits is the same one as on his Get In Where You Fit In album???

Classics, but not a whole CD.......2006-04-26

Well considering I was born around the time these songs were produced I dont have much to say about remembering these classics. I have to judge the album when I heard it which was in 2004. I wouldn't buy the album unless I remembered these songs from back in the day. Im not hating on it but it's just sounds a little old for my style. The CD has two songs which I would put on my Ipod. Players and dont ever stop. Maybe female funk? I dont want to diss Short but dont buy this CD.

ONCE YOU FIND THIS, BUY IT ON SIGHT!.......2004-01-08

THIS RARE DOUBLE DISC CONTAINS THE ENTIRE CONTENTS OF TOO SHORT'S FIRST 3 TAPES, WHICH WERE ALL RECORDED LOCALLY BACK IN 1985. THOSE TAPES ARE VERY RARE AND EVEN THIS CD THAT HAS ALL THE SONGS FROM THOSE 3 TAPES ARE RARE. TO THIS DAY, SONGS LIKE ''DON'T STOP RAPPIN'', INVASION OF THE FLAT BOOTY B***HES'', ''GIRL'', ''WILD WILD WEST'', AND ''SHORT RAP'' ARE ALL GREAT SONGS TO PARTY TO. KEEP IN MIND THAT THE WEST COAST HAD NOT YET ESTABLISHED ITS OWN SOUND. SO, IN OTHER WORDS, THESE SONGS PRE-DATE GANGSTA RAP, N.W.A., ICE-T, EAZY-E, AND ALL THAT STUFF. THESE ARE ACTUALLY SOME OF THE BEST TOO SHORT SONGS THAT'VE EVER BEEN RECORDED. YOUR TOO SHORT COLLECTION IS NEVER COMPLETE WITHOUT THIS CD. YOU MIGHT HAVE TO ORDER ONE OFF OF THIS WEBSITE BEING THAT THIS 2-DISC IS HARD TO FIND.

N.W.A........2007-01-19

These CD's were dope. I listen to it during a long drive. It's like a mix tape. NWA helped start the so called 'gangsta rap' (not my term).

Great Compilation of songs, but why put edited versions on an explicit compilation........2006-07-12

The N.W.A. Legacy volume 1 has absolutely amazing songs such as Dr. Dre's Keep Their Heads Ringin', The D.O.C's No One Can Do it Better, Daz's In California, and many more. But the disapointing part of this compilation was the It was a Good Day remix and the Westsyde Radio Megamix, for one reason because it was edited.


The legacy includes MC's from the Westside Connection, Snoop Doggy Dog, members from N.W.A (official and unofficial), and a couple more. The songs on this compilation are worth the time listening to except a couple. The best songs on the first disc include Eazy's Boyz-N-Tha-Hood remix, the Westside Connection's Bow Down, and N.W.A.'s Straight Outta Compton. The best songs on the second disc include Dre's Keep Their Heads Ringin, Daz's In California, and N.W.A.'s F*** the Police. The songs that are not good at all that would've been good are the Westsyde Radio Megamix, and the It Was a Good Day remix. These aren't good songs because they are edited versions (I am going to talk about the random edited tracks on the explicit cd).


The songs are absolutely amazing, but they edit Ice Cube's It Was a Good Day remix and the Westsyde Radio Megamix on an explicit cd. It is ok to have an edited version of explicit lyrics but it is ridiculous if you put edited tracks on an explicit version of a cd. And how do you edit a friggen Eazy-E song when he is one of the most violent and vulger rappers ever (it's not a bad thing). The It Was a Good Day remix had potential to be great due to the change of the beat (the original beat was a lot better), but they again randomly edited it. Basically what I'm saying the producers shouldn't have edited random tracks on this compilation.

The legacy is still worth buying because it has some rare and great tracks.

One Of The All-Time Great Compilations.......2005-01-20

First of all, one luv to the bay for putting down some of the best lyricists and musical talent to ever walk into the studio from Sly & The Family Stone to Peebles to Too Short to The Click. This compilation gives us a view of the bay area rap scene came through and to me a lot of information of the independent rap label came about. The compilation starts of with Numskull of The Luniz giving you a thesis of what to expect on this compilation and the CD just rolls into it with "I've Got 5 On It. The CD just flows on with interviews and some of the trunk rattling joints that put the trademark on the bay area rap scene. Mac Mall gives great insight on the formation of YBB and on how Vallejo(35 miles north of Oakland) was a hotbed in the making for gangster rap. Another reason I appreciate this CD is due to the fact this compilation did not exclude MC Hammer for what may happen with him and all of the sellout controversy that went on in the early '90's. The CD gives us an all-star cast at the end with the cut "Bay Luv". Overall this was a maximum effort from the bay. As I have been saying again and again, we need some from the bay or L.A. to step up today flip the script to the way it was. The only way is to stop trying to compete with the mainstream artist because they are in for a minute. All I have to say is the bay area produced some of the best music in the rap music industry and will never be forgotten. One Luv to the Bay!!!!

the Bay Area's finest.......2002-02-20

I got this CD when it first came out in 98. It's a great reminder of when the unique Bay Area funk sound was at its apex in the early and mid 90s. I also remember when they actually used to play these songs on KMEL. If anything, this CD is a excellent insight to the independent spirit of the Bay. Those were the days.

Tight '94 tracks.......1999-11-04

Some of the tightest Bay Area rap tracks to come out around 1994. I spent years trying to track down the Mac Mall remix of Game Recognize Game, and this CD was the only place that I could find it. The hits start getting a little weak near the end of the CD, but the first section more than makes up for it. Unlike other compilations, the songs are well recorded and equalized. Perfect for cruising...

Definely a "must have" for all those from the "Yay"...........1999-10-14

I must admit that I was on a serious mission trying to find some music from back home (Cali's Bay Area). First on my list was The Click, JT the bigga figga and DruDown. I came across this and saw all the titles on the track and listened to some samples and almost died. It brought me back to '91, '92 days at the side show on Hegenberger and Emeryville Denny's.

A MUST HAVE for all those away from the "Yay" (and others that appreciate the sound) wanting to re-live your early 90's or just parlay....

THIS ALBUM IS THE SHIZNIT..A MUST HAVE!!!.......1999-02-25

THIS ALBUM IS ALL THAT, A BAG OF CHIPS AND A SAMS CLUB HOT DOG..HAHAHAH..SUP YALLZ, IF YOUR A DIE HARD BAY AREA RAP LISTENR THEN THIS ALBUM IS A MUST FOR YOUR COLLECTION. IT LACES UP ALL THAT WORLD ENOUN RAPPERS AND THEIR RECORD HITS. THE SOUND QUALITY IS HELLA TIGHT AND IT MAKES YOUR TRUNK LIKE A TRAMPOLINE CUZ' IT WONT STOP BOUNCIN!! REMEMBER BAY-LUV WORLDWIDE..AND NEVER HATE!! AND TO EVERYONE THAT MADE THIS ALBUM POSSIBLE YALL DID AN EXCEPTIONAL JOB..LETS MAKE VOLUME 2 EVEN BETTER!! ONE LUV BAY-BEE

Big Frost put it Down.......2006-10-24

Great album from start to finish. i always loved frosts music but I also always felt the he looked and sounded like a fat ICE-T not that that's a bad thing just what i think of frost but hes dope

Oh and lil kraze put a review old g its O.G. and it means original gangster not old gangster haha

Frostbit.......2005-08-01

Frost or Kid Frost is one of the biggest Latino rappers / emcee hailing from East Los Angeles, California and this release That Was Then, This Is Now Vol. 1 was a major disappointment. The problem is originality. There are too many hooks and lyrics being stolen and that's bad. On to the brighter side, there are a few gems here but not enough to save this lp. "Outlaws" featuring Kurupt & King T is a good song of West Coast gangster love. Bay area's B-Legit & Richie Rich helped out on the banging "Heart Of A Savage". The actual icing for Frost was the orchestrated "Big Business" featuring Xzibit & Jayo Felony. Those alone are worth checking out this release.

Still Dope After All This Years.......2000-06-30

After more than 10 years, Frost still is the godfather of latin rap. In That Was Then, This Is Now, he is featuring names like Mad One, Nino Brown and Xbiztz, and make some "outros clássicos" of chicano hip-hop. "Latin Kingz", "Mamacita" and "Los Katrachos" are hits in the party El Chicano that I do in Brazil. Obrigado, Frost!

Album of the Year.......2000-04-22

This is truly the album of the year! Frost has really outdone himself in this latest project. From beggining to end this album will easy make up for the 15 bucks payed for it. First Frost put together some of the best producers in the game, then he wrote some of the most thoughtful lyrics written in a while and finally brought together some of the most famous and respected rappers from both the black and brown world. A must for anybody who can reaaly appreciate true art and to anybody else that just wants to play one of the best albums of the year.

That was then, This is now.......2000-03-17

Frost the true old G from East L.A the godfather of the real G's. Frost putting it down and also representing the West Coast Gambinos and Also us MEXICANS! I can't wait to VOL.2 comes out I'll be the first to get it. Frost got some other real old G's representing in this CD like South Park Mexican. So don't waste your money on some FAKE ganster rappers out there buy this Alubum today.
