Title: E40- Tha Hall of Game
Post by: davida.b. on May 09, 2004, 01:48:12 PM: Record Haters- Diss to Resheed Wallace and AZ. 40 kills em, especially AZ. 4.5/5

Rappers Ball (f/too short, k-ci)- Produced by Ant Banks. Great track. K Ci sings the chorus. E40 delivars this memorable line: Don't by an $85,000 car before you buy a house. 5/5

Growing Up (f/lil e)- If it wasn't for the annoying chorus, this would be a good song. 3.5/5

Million Dollar Spot (f/2pac, b legit)- PERFECT TRACK!!!!! 5/5

I Wanna Thank You (f/suga t)- The chorus definatly grew on me. E40 & Suga T spit great verses. 4.5/5

The Story- E40 delivers some deep verses. Great chorus with a Beastie Boys sample. 5/5

My Drinking Club (f/young mugzi)- This song must have been a college anthem. This is alcohol music at its finest. 5/5

Ring It (f/spice 1, keak da sneak, harm)- Fuck Harm!! If it wasn't for his goddamn annoying-as-hell singing, this would be a good song. Produced by Tone Capone (r.i.p.). 3/5

I Like What You Do To Me (f/b legit)- B flows his ass off, slightly annoying chorus. 40 doesn't do to bad either. 5/5

Things'll never Change (f/bo-rock)- This song is a classic! Bo Rock sprinkles us with his voice, and 40 discusses what's wrong with the world. 5/5

It is What it is (f/kaveo)- Dark song produced by Studio Ton. Decent beat. 4/5

Captain Save Them Hoe (f/the click)- This song grew on me, Everyone comes correct. 4/5

Practice Lookin Hard- produced by Studio Ton. E40 sprinkles us with gems again. Another westcoast classic. 5/5

Outsmart the Po Po's (f/b legit)- Typical anti-police song. Its enjoyable. 4/5

overall= 4.3/5

Its a very dope CD, I would definitely recommend checking it out, especially if you like the G-Funk type sound from around 95

Post by: soopa-man on November 29, 2004, 03:14:37 PM: This Album IMO Has 40 Water's Best Lyrical Performance Comparing To His Latest Shyt Like (Breaking News, Grit & Grind) Though Grit & Grind Was Enjoyable, The Production Was Solid, Breaking News Was Stale, This Album Has Both Sides Of 40, The Serious And Playful If You Havnt Heard It Listen To It's Worth That! Then Buy It, It's Worht It

Title: Re: E40- Tha Hall of Game
Post by: soopa-man on January 16, 2005, 01:58:59 PM: 40 Water cmae thruogh hard on this cd, yeah the beats are more uptempo but his lyrics are more introspcetive on himself and his opinion more than he ahs done in years! I Love 40's music but lately the beats are the same and the lyrics are falling behind, he always comes through with bangers but so do alot of old-school artist, dope album

Post by: ColdManey on March 21, 2005, 12:01:57 AM: Whoever said 40 is trash must be on one. 40 is the most creative rapper of our time. There's only one rapper better than him (alive) and thats Crooked I.
