Another Banger By An Underground Legend!!.......2007-05-27

This is Houston, Tx's great E.S.G.'s 4th album, and let me tell you it definitely is thumpin. I have 3 of his albums, this, 1995's Sailin' Da South, and his perennial classic debut, 1994's Ocean Of Funk. I feel that this can't touch Ocean... or Sailin'..., but it definitely beats the hell outta 90 percent of anything from 1999 and on. Here, he leaves Perrion records and his legendary producer Sean "Solo" Jemison, and enters another legendary label Wreckshop Records, where Fat Pat (RIP) got everybody crunk with Ghetto Dreams in 1998. Fat Pat died in 1998 a year before this came out, and ESG definitely came thru. Produced by Dub D, Sin, Noke D, Chikken Hawk, the album sizzles with southern fried funk and bounce. The production slaps all the way thru with a mix of crunk style and funky beats, and a few beats border on G-Funk. My fav is the bouncy "Who's Next To Plex," an nice mix of lowrider West Coast G-Funk and southern bounce and E gets his floss on. "Shinin' And Grindin'" is a hot bouncy slapper with ESG kickin slick, flossy flows; the song definitely recalls "Swangin' And Bangin'" from a half decade ago. Now this album is flossier than his first ones, so it may have a more mainstream atmosphere than before, but it still bangs because ESG is a great rapper, easily one of my favorite rappers period. Of course, E has the obligatory rider anthem on what else, "Do You Wanna Ride?" with a smooth beat, laidback faint keyboard background, and R&B hook vocals. E does flex his gangsta and grind a bit too on tracks like "Ain't 2 Be F---d With." "Stay Playa" is hella laidback with a smooth, melodic G-Funk style beat with E and some of his wreckshop homies. This album is more for cats wanting a more laidback album to ride to or to bounce to at the club. Definitely a fun album to listen to! 1 Luv to E.S.G. for givin' us another banger to roll to!

Respectable third album from E.S.G........2000-02-11

This album starts off really good with some great tracks. E.S.G. has always had his own style and on this album he sounds more comfortable than his last effort, Return Of The Living Dead. The majority of the tracks are very soulful and the production is tight. When he's laying some fabulous lyrics on top of that this album can't be nothing but a winner. However this album isn't always as great as I hoped it would be. He doesn't manage to keep up the quality througout the entire album. Midway it gets a bit boring and from there it sounds like everybody else's album coming out these days. but don't let that keep you away from buying this album because it's a good one. The majority of the tracks stand out for themselves. If the weak ones had been removed he would have got 5 stars from me.

ESG, Wreckshops next SuperStar.......1999-12-13

Manne, ESG does it again. This is his 4th album and first with Wreckshop. D-Wreck made a smart move signing ESG. Even with the loss of Fat Pat Wreckshop shows it is still the best label in Houston, and I will go as far as saying maybe the best in the industry. So if you liked ESG's earlier albums you will defiantly love this one. He comes just as hard as he had in the past and gots an allstar guest apperances. If you see the label Wreckshop pick it up.

ESG can't be faded.......1999-07-22
