8/10

easily not mack 10's album.  Based on a true story is way better.  I don't have his debut album, but the songs I have heard on it are bangin, I bet it is better than the recipe easily.  The recipe is decent.  I liked it a lot a few years ago when it dropped, but I don't listen to it at all anymore.  Mack 10 presents da hood is a dope ass album.

Maybe I'm just harsh, but I would give it between 4/10 and 6/10. Because it's not really a Mack 10 album, it's like Featuring Mack 10. Individual songs are dope but it's not good as an entire album.
Pros: Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg, Jayo Felony, Squeak Ru, Tray Deee, WC, K Mac, MC Eiht, Roadawgs, Boo Kapone, Binky, Eazy E, Techniec

Cons: not West Coast enough (Jermaine Dupri, Foxy Brown, Master P, Mystikal, Gerald Levert, ODB, Buckshot, Fat Joe, Big Pun). Mack sounds good on these songs but I don't like those artists. I think he sounds best with West Coast production and West Coast collabs, and these songs are not his strongest. Maybe it's just because it came after Based on a True Story and Bow Down that it's a disappointment.

If you see it under $5 I would pick it up, but definitely his first album, Based on a True Story, Mack 10 Presents the Hood are all better. There is only one solo song on the Recipe.

Best songs: Get a Lil ****, LBC and the ING, Gangsta **** Like a Drug (my favorite on this as it's Tray Deee and Squeak Ru), Get Yo Ride On, The Recipe.

peace,

I think it's dope!  The beats are bangin and I prefer other artists featured on Mack albums.
