WC - Ghetto Heisman
« on: November 10, 2003, 06:22:18 PM »
I guess I just feel like reviewing it.. its one of my fav albums.. note: I took the credits from the vault( i hope you don't mind tnp/jome..all copyrights to you guys. )


1.Highlight Reel (intro) : X/5

2.Bellin featuring Kokane Produced by Brian Wilson additional vocals by Deidre Oliphant : an alright beat, WC has some nice verses in it, its nothin special-nothin wack. 3.75/5

3.The Streets (re-twist) featuring Snoop Dogg and Nate Dogg
Produced by Scott Storch for Tuff Jew Productions/Tha Hustla Foundation : A very dope beat with this song. Very dope verses by WC, and snoop throws a nice verse too. And nate dogg with sweet chorus.. 5/5

4.Fake N***as (skit)
Arranged by DJ Crazy Toones & WC
Performed by Bubba Loc : x/5

5.So Hard featuring Scarface
Produced by Buck Wild for Kurrup Money Entertainment
Contains interpolations from "The Bridge is Over" written by Lawrence Parker and Scott LaRock
Contains an interpolation of "Heads High" (Smith, Browne)
Contains elements from "Can't Make It Without Me" performed by Shawne Jackson : At first I thought it wasnt that good but i listened to it a bit more and found it was actually better. both have nice verses 4/5

6.Flirt featuring Case
Produced by Rick Rock for Sharick and Mook, Inc.
: Pretty tight beat, kind of club beat or good for a party i guess. Case helps WC out here to make it good, WC throws tight verses as usual 4.5/5

7.187um Burgers (skit)
Arranged by DJ Crazy Toones & WC :X/5

8.Walk featuring Ice Cube & Mack 10 (Westside Connection)
Produced by Battlecat for BC Powda/Future Sounds Entertainment
: a westside connection song, with dope verses to make it tight as hell. 4.5/5

9.Tears of a Killa featuring Butch Cassidy
Produced by Battlecat for BC Powda/Future Sound Entertainment : 4/5 wc just rappin about his life basically.

10.Da Get Together featuring Butch Cassidy
Produced by Tony Pizarro and Flip for Audio-Tone Recordings
: kinda another club beat/party song. wc has dope sound on this one.  4.25/5

11.Throw Ya Hood Up featuring Toothpick from South-West
Produced by Tony Pizarro and Flip for Audio-Tone Recordings :good beat, toothpick has some ok highlights. 3/5

12.Wanna Ride featuring Ice Cube and MC Ren
Produced by Tony Pizarro and Flip for Audio-Tone Recordings : Ren has verrry tight verses imo. cube is pretty tight verses too like always. wc also as usual. 5/5 my favourite track on the cd. can't seem to get enough of it.

13.Bang Loose featuring Dr. Stank, Lady T and Dauville
Produced by Tony Pizarro and Flip for Audio-Tone Recordings
Additional vocals by Traci Nelson
Contains elements from "Atmosphere" performed by Funkadelic : the production isn’t the best. Lady T throws down a tight verse, Dr stank and dauville arn't anythin special, wc does tight on this one too.  3.75/5

14.Get Out
Produced by Da Neckbones
Hook produced by Black Chill, WC & DJ Crazy Toones
: this song reminds me of "lets get high" kind of a same kind of sound to it, overall its an alright track, the chorus seems to sometimes get boring. 3.25/5

15.Let's Make a Deal featuring Gangsta and Lina
Produced by DJ Crazy Toones for Bandana Swangin Ent.
Additional vocals by Lina : Lina has good vocals, same with WC : 3.75-4 /5

16.Something 2 Live 4
Produced by Derek "LA" Johnson for The Hustla Foundation/Ultimate Entertainment Group : 3 tight verses. 4.25/5

OVERALL: I give this cd a 4.5/5 I really enjoy listenin to this cd, seems like an addiction, theres not many flaws, not too many useless skits either. Its a good westcoast album by Dubcee, maybe not as good as The Shadiest one(imo) but still a great one. 8)


Executive Producers:WC, DJ Crazy Toones, Tina Davis and Kevin Liles

any feedback is appreciated

4.5?!?!?! Damn!

I'd give it like a 3.

Most hip-hop is now keyboard driven, because the majority of hip-hop workstations have loops and patches that enable somebody with marginal skills to put tracks together,...

Unfortunately, most hip-hop artists gravitated towards the path of least resistance by relying on these pre-set patches. As a result, electric guitar and real musicians became devalued, and a lot of hip-hop now sounds the same.

Thanks haha.

Dont listen to this cd much anymore, Dubcee is still good though, probably would give it a 4/5 now if I listened to it today.

4.5/5?

For real?

I've slept on this then. I have all of WC's albums on tape or cd except this one and the Low Profile album, which I can't find anywhere for the life of me. WC has never disappointed me. I picked up the felli fell mixtape a couple of months back, it as pretty good.

I need to give this a listen.

^I'd say 4/5.. at the time I did this review I was really into it and stuff, now it sounds sort of boring, with acception of a few tracks


Edit: Just read it over, what a pathetic review lol

I love this album, he is better than The Shadiest One. For me Ghetto Heisman is a classic.
