A Letdown at the hoedown

Review Score: (6/10)
While riding high atop the crest of publicity he garnered from his "Copkiller" publicity and Time-Warner pullout, expectations at the time of this release were pretty damn high. Probably too high, because "O.G." was a critical high point to slam all others to the ground.

I would have been satisfied if this album continued in the same vein, but unfortunately it's wayyy too patchy. Too many throwaway tracks like "99 Problems", "Funky Gribsta" and "Pimp Behind The Wheel" to take it very seriously, although there are more than a few tunes worth owning. You just gotta dig 'em out.

"Gotta Lotta Love" is hated by many, but is one of the only tracks on this album with any substance, so it's essential. Ditto "I Ain't New To This", "That's How I'm Living", and "Message To The Soldier".
