5.0 out of 5 stars Westsiiiiiiide!, September 24, 1999
By Philip Y. (Israel) - See all my reviews
I got this album right when it came out and I still think what I thought of it then. An incredible album - just pure gangsta rap. Ice Cube and Mack 10 tear it up but I think WC is the one that shines on that album, finally getting the reccognition he deserves for so long. Also awsome production by QDIII and Budda... A classic album also because it's one of the few who really stands up for the West Ccoast, demmanding the respect it deserves! The Crew isn't ashamed to diss the hell out of everybody who pisses them off - whether it's East Coast critics or rival rappers - The Westside Connection will drop bomb on their a** all day long. BOW DOWN!

5.0 out of 5 stars Killer connection, May 21, 2007
This album gets five stars for the following reasons. 1. It doesnt betray its purpose with silly records like Get Ignit and Lights Out. 2. The production was hard. None of that street party music the second album had. 3. Ice Cube was always on point, and WC and Mack10 shine right along with him. This album reminds of NWA's N***az4Life. Uncompromising gangsta rap at its finest. Standout Track: BOW DOWN, GANGSTAS MAKE THE WORLD GO ROUND, ALL THE CRITICS IN NEW YORK(NYC needs to be dissed for giving a talentless stoolbucket like Puffy a pass), THE GANGSTA THE KILLER& THE DOPE DEALER, DO YOU LIKE CRIMINALS, CROSS EM OUT AND PUT A K (Cube and Mac10 take shots at Cypress Hill and Q-tip), KING OF THE HILL(continued assault on Cypress Hill on this dope diss record), 3 TIME FELONS etc. Filler: None. Bottom Line: Westside Connection's Bow Down is one the best rap albums from a group in 96. Hard edged rhyming over gritty beats. Just a great album period. BOW DOWN!

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the last great West Coast HipHop Albums........................., February 12, 2007
By The Specialist (Parts Unknown) - See all my reviews
Cube was already a hiphop legend and screen star when he assembled WC and Mack 10 to form Westside Connection. This album dropped at the height of the West Coast-vs-East Coastal rap war. These dudes come hard and get their point across that these 3 West Coast Gs aint nothing to mess with!
Dub C is off the hook on here, dude is the knockout punch for real.

Top Joints:
Bow Down (Classic)
Gangstas Make The World Go Round (Classic)(Mack's blasphemous verse kills it)
All The Critics In New York
Do You Like Criminals
The Gangsta, The Killa And The Dope Dealer
King Of The Hill (Vicious Cypress Hill Diss)
3 Time Felons
Westward Ho (Where we Going?)
