I posted all those joints in the Kurupt Super Thread this past year.

I assume by now all the links are expired.

I will try to repost them sometime this year.

West West niggaz!

Streetz is a mutha is a classic....Def in my top 5 albums.

Space Boogie....Pretty dope...should've never made it's over, and try pushing it for crossover success, but give it to him for trying it. That being said, most songs are also dope. (Hardest track def 'Hate on me' IMO)

Kuruption....We can freak it, One of his all time best songs. However, he should've cut the scrap, and make this a one cd album.

Against the grain was cool....though I wold've thought most of this material was made before he left the Pound.

Originals...One or two songs perhaps, but really not even on the radar.

Same Day Different Shit...Was good to hear some Raw Kurupt getting back that flow we all like.

Doing a lot of Collabo albums....(Jwells Cool, Dj Quik..should be cool...J-Ro...rather see him do one with Tash...)

Really....Needs another PROPER Solo. Like another Streetz or Space Boogie. Loooong overdue. Hopefully Fredwreck will be up in the mix again for this one. Def get that sound that makes a Kurupt album!

Other musics have consistently kept my attention lately though i have been fiendin for some pac and biggie.....

Allmusic.com's Review For Kurupt's Tha Streets Iz a Mutha
http://www.dubcnn.com/connect/index.php?topic=209817.msg2120932#msg2120932
The Philly native and Southern California transplant's second solo venture minus Daz Dillinger (though Daz supplies production and makes a few lyrical appearances) is hardcore West Coast rap dripping with funk and violence. Kurupt, a truly talented and versatile lyricist who appeared on Pete Rock's Soul Survivor, prefers to downplay his wordplay in favor of confrontational flows on Streetz Iz a Mutha. This is an angry and somewhat controversial record, mainly on the strength of the damning "Calling Out Names." Streetz represents true new-wave SoCal gangsta rap. Daz drops a few LBC funk tracks, namely "Your Gyrlfriend" and the title cut. Dr. Dre provides a signature track and guest emcees on the laid-back "Ho's a Housewife." A philharmonic track provided by Bink Dawg lights up "Trylogy," and Kurupt teams up with the legendary Blastmaster KRS to show his more abstract side on "Live on the Mic." Production is slack in places, and those looking for anything but hardcore may be a little disappointed. This is a very listenable joint, swelling with an updated G-funk sound, but the lyrical content is not for the faint of heart. A veritable who's who of West Coast rappers make guest appearances, including Jayo Felony, Snoop Dogg, Nate Dogg, Xzibit, Warren G, Dr. Dre, T-Mo from Goodie Mob, and KRS-One. Fans of Tha Dogg Pound and L.A. hardcore will definitely dig this. Unspectacular but solid, this was part of a late-1999 West Coast revival.

well i was listening to it and decided to read the review and well they was wrong

although it ain't no fucking classic like all these DPG dickriders be saying,
it was a spetacular album but nowhere near a classic anyways here it is
