Kurupt - Space Boogie: Smoke Oddessey
« on: March 01, 2002, 04:06:49 AM »
Kurpt has alwayz been one of my favorite MC's since I first heard him way back on the Chronic.  His first album disappointed me, but Streetz Iz A Mutha really got me feeling him again.  So I was anxious with this release, and believe me yall, homeboy came correct.

1.  Blast Off (Intro) - Wierd intro, kind of pointless, I don't like it all, but its just an intro, nothing major.  Not even worth rating.

2. Space Boogie f/Nate Dogg - Tight ass beat with this song.  At first, beat is boring, but keeps getting better as the song goes on.  Kurupt flows for a long ass time at the begiining.  And Nate drops some heat as alwayz with his vocals.  Damn good way 2 start off the album.  4.5/5

3.  Hate On Me f/Soopafly, Defari - Another tight ass beat.  Different than what Soopafly usually brings to the table.  But def. a banger.  Soopafly also drops a tight ass verse.  I can't wait 4 a new Soopafly album.  This song is straight heat.  5/5

4.  On Da Grind f/Daz Dillinger - This song was originally featured on R.A.W.  Fits this album perfect.  Cuz its a commercial song.  Both Daz and Kurupt come correct.  Really like the Gangsta voice.  Liked it on R.A.W. and I still like it.  4/5

5.  It's Over f/Natina Reed - Song is way 2 poppy 4 me and any other hard core Kurupt fans.  But did its job getting Kurupt some airplay.  Just doesn't do it 4 me.  And the damn chrous sticks in my mothafuckin' head 4ever.  2/5

6.  Can't Go Wrong f/DJ Quik, Butch Cassidy - Big fan of DJ Quik so you know I love this track.  And I'm really feeling Butch Cassidy.  Hes the new Nate Dogg in my opinion.  Tight song right here.  DJ Quiks beat is nice and laid back, typical Quik.  Both come with good flows.  Tight 4.5/5

7.  On, Onsite - Tight ass song.  Oh man the beat really gets my hyped.  Fred Wreck's best beat in my opinon.  Kurupt spits some shit 2.  Song I repeat over and over.  Second best on album.  5/5

8.  Sunshine f/Jon B. - This songs average.  Got 2 admit I hated it at first, but it did grow on me.  Good song 2 just chill and smoke to.  Kurupts flow is ill.  But Jon B. just doesn't do it 4 me.  The only time I like Jon B. was when he did that song with Pac.  Beat is laid back, like I said just an average piece here.  3/5

9.  Tha Hardest Mutha Fucka's f/MC Ren, Xzibit, Nate Dogg - Huge fan of MC Ren so I loved this song.  Beat is tight 2.  Another Fred Wreck.  Song would of been 10x better though, if Dre had produced it I think.  Come on Dre, help Kurupt out.  Nate has a good chrous, and X to tha Z comes hard as usual.  4/5

10. Gangsta's f/Daz Dillinger - My favorite song on the whole album.  Beat is just phat as hell, Daz Dilli at his best.  Both flow back and forth and just never get sick of this song.  I fuckin' love it.  5/5

11. Bring Back That G Shit f/Snoop Dogg - Beat is average and so is the song.  I've heard both come better than this.  But its good 2 see Snoop on the album.  3.5/5

12. Lay It On Back f/Fred Durst, Nate Dogg - Another average song, but its got a good beat and it also has Nate Dogg in it, so it def. is listenable.  Fred doesn't do bad either.  I was very surprised.  3.5/5

13. Just Don't Give A Fuck f/DJ Lethal - Don't know why everybody hates on this song.  Its phat as hell.  The beat just seems to suit Kurupt perfect.  Classic Kurupt right here.  4/5

14. At It Again - Hate this song, another poppy rap song.  Not good at all, Kurupt needs to stick to nothing but hardcore, he sounds to wierd in these poppy songs.  2/5

15. Kuruption f/Everlast - Another bad song.  Don't really like this at all.  Not really into Everlast at all.  The beat just doesn't seem to fit Kurupt.  Not a good song, but oh well.  2/5

16. Da World f/Daz Dillinger - Good way to end the album, esp. after the last two tracks.  Typical Daz and Kurupt right here.  Beat its phat.  4/5

Overall this album is phat.  Def. worth getting, esp. if you a DPG fan and westcoast fan. Beats for the most part are top notch.  Get this album if you haven't already.  7.5/10

one of the worst displays of lyracism and probably up there with Da game, Nastradamus, peace disc as one of the most tragic falls from grace from a quality mc


a generous 2/5

this album is tight.  They only downfall was the lead single.  That was a terrible attemp at commercial success.
