5.0 out of 5 stars Real playas innovate, August 15, 2000

I've had this album for six months now and it's still growing on me like bacteria. The beats are really something mad fresh - reverse tape loops, little twittering synth sounds, sweeping string chords - there's no end to the invention Hutch brings to this crisp biccie: and all underpinned by that PHAT bass you expect from a west coast artist. Many of the flourishes are so subtle you don't notice them at first listening. Complementing the understated beats is Hutch's smooth, almost whispered at times, delivery on the mic. Yes, my friends this album is the dog's proverbials. Not instant gratification but an album of hidden treasures that'll keep you craving for a LONG time. Ease into it.

4.0 out of 5 stars "Pomona's Finest", September 6, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Executive Decisions (Audio CD)

Gregory Hutchinson Jr. aka Big Hutch, Cold 187 um has stayedtrue to his fans with his lyrics and of course he has elevated thegame when it comes to production as usual. Why he and the rest of Above the Law have never gone gold is one of the great mysteries of man. Check the black satin smooth feel of "Velvet Lifestyle," and the thought provoking "My Life." Don't waste your ducats on any of that garbage oozing out of New Orleans or that fake thug wannabes out of the Ruff Ryders camp. Big Hutch and the Pimp Clinic are on a whole nutha' level, I thought ya knew?

5.0 out of 5 stars The 187-Master on a solo!, December 30, 2005

By 

Loco-E "Loco_Eazyum_187_E" (Watts, CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Executive Decisions (Audio CD)

Big Hutch aka Cold 187um who's the front man of Above the Law, Cold 187um goes under his alias, Big Hutch to bring a solid solo joint to your ears. The better known man from Above the Law brings his distinct voice and style over some more G-Funk beats that Above the Law has always brung. Production is good and just what you'd expect from something Above the Law is on, nice, smooth G-Funk beats, Big Mil does 6 of the 15, Big Hutch does 4, DJ Silk does 2, SOC, Aaron, Tha Chill all do 1. Guests are on half of the songs, and KMG of Above the Law gets in on 3. It has 2 songs I skip, 4 are ok, and the other 10 are good, with one being a great song. A good album to have for fans of G-Funk or Above the Law. Big Hutch has a pretty tight album, I've seen the music video to the song Bubonic Plague if anyone is interested!

The 187-Master's best are 2, 3, *4(featuring Ha Ha Loc & Bam), 5(featuring KMG & Tha Chill), *6(featuring Xzibit & KMG), 8(featuring Safecracka), 9, *10(featuring Young Ten & Bam), 12(featuring Saafir), 13 & 15(featuring KMG & Bam).
