B.G. Knocc Out & Dresta: Real Brothas (1995)

 

5.0 out of 5 stars Banging, hardcore g-funk...a slept-on gem, December 3, 2006

By

In late 1995, Compton natives and half-brothers BG Knocc Out & Dresta released their debut album "Real Brothas" to little fanfare on Eazy-E's Ruthless Records. Recently I have been going through my collection and reviewing some of my favorite albums, trying to steer people towards some underrated hip hop releases. "Real Brothas" shines on multiple levels. While on the surface the duo may just look like another jeri-curled, Compton Crip rap group, Knocc Out and Dresta are two of the toughest, grittiest west coast rappers that I have heard, and despite their young age they come as hard as any, heavy with threats and stories. Musically the production is excellent, graced with the slow rolling, heavy bass, whiny synths, and hard beats of the best g-funk records of the 90s. Unfortunately, this album is long out of print and impossible to find, making its legend even greater. "Real Brothas" is one of my favorite west coast g-funk albums and I highly recommend it.

1. Everyday All day
2. Jealousy
3. Whose the "G"
4. Compton Swangin'
5. Life's a Puzzle (Feat. L.V.)

B-Legit: The Hemp Musuem (1996)

 

5.0 out of 5 stars Bela Geezy OFF Da Heezy, October 17, 2001

By	fox (Kansas City)

Well if you like the click and are a yea area rap fan this should be one of your favorites. I'm sure if you asked more than 100 w/coast rap fans if legit can hold his own at least 80 would say he can. Even though his cousin e-40 blew up the click, legit could have blow up himself with a big label backing him. B-legit has always had a good solid understandable flow, he raps right on the beat, kinda like too short. He really dosen't need the help of the click but it would be a crime if they didn't rap together, c'mon I mean there family. Now to the album it's self. Producers Studio Ton and Mike Mosley are never a let down, they can always suply none stop mob funk. All the songs on here u should be able to listen to because legit can flow and the producing is good but if u like legit for his hardcore sound than you'll do like me and skip over the softer tracks at times. The guess apperances on the album are very good and with all creditable w/coast rapper's( C-Bo,Kurupt,Celly Cel,40,A1,Lil Bruce and the Mossie). Singer Levitti also adds a much needed soulful sound to the album. What really suprises me about this album is tha song "Getto Smile", which is a wonderfull remake colaberation of singer Daryl Hall's original late 70's hit "Smile for me", Daryl Hall singing the chourus in between legits rap verses. Also the bonus track #15, not originaly intended to be on the album is a nice gift to all B-legits fans.

1.	Intro - B-Legit
2.	City 2 City - B-Legit
3.	For So Long - B-Legit
4.	Check It Out - B-Legit / E-40 / Kurupt
5.	Gotta Buy Your Dope From Us - B-Legit / C-BO / Little Bruce
6.	The Hemp Museum - B-Legit
7.	Neva Bite - B-Legit
8.	Ghetto Smile - B-Legit / Daryl Hall
9.	Don't Do It (Interlude) - B-Legit / G-Note

Ant Banks: The Big Badass (1994)

 

The Big Bad A-- Bringin It 2 Ya In The 9 Fo', July 11, 2006

By	G-Funk 4ever "Honda Civic"

Here you have one of my favorite producers in my favorite year for rap: Ant Banks in 1994! His lyrics are decent, but the production is out of this world; it is simply amazing how he flips those p-funk samples, and makes those syrupy, elastic, and almost celestial and galactic space boogie G-Funk beats! Is Banksta a distant relative of George Clinton??? I love the bouncy Zapp influenced "Straight Hustlin" with those interesting keyboard riffs, I can't even began to describe, along with a neat talk box. I love the slower rollin' "Hard As Hell" with a whiny synth in the beginning and first verse! "The Loot" with Too Short is a banger about grindin for paper; Short Dogg kicks in some funny lyrics. Banks gets on now rival Pooh Man in the ultra funky "F-----' Wit Banks;" the flow and lyrics are decent, but once again the beat is stompin' with that 510 funk. "Streets Of Oakland" puts it down for the O with a smooth guitar ridden beat. "Parlayin" kicks in game with sick flows from Banks and his cuddy Goldy. Both kill the mic over a smokin' bouncy beat. Banks is much better known as a producer than a rapper. He can rap, but those beats are better than 99 percent of all beatsmiths out there. He helped create that G-Funk explosion like Quik, Above The Law, and Dre, and spread it north to the bay area.

1. The Big Badass
2. 2 Kill A G (Feat. Spice 1, Too $hort)
3. Streets of Oakland (Feat. Boots of The Coup)
4. The Drunken Fool
5. Parlayin' (Feat. Goldy)
6. Clownin' Wit Da Crew (Feat. The Dangerous Crew)
7. Fuckin' Wit Banks (Feat. Too $hort, Goldy)
8. Straight Hustlin'
9. Pimp Style Gangstas (Feat. Rappin' Ron, Ant Diddley Dog)
10. The Loot (Feat. Too $hort)
11. Packin' A Gat
12. Hard As Hell
