Kuruption ain't a bad thing!, July 1, 2001
Kurupt is one of the best rappers out there. From the time I heard him on Stranded on Death Row I fell for his skill. He can come on strong at times, but he can also be really smooth. I don't see the fact that this album is not as popular as say The Chronic 2001 as a bad thing.....cuz then when you hear someone bumpin this you'll know there goes someone who really knows rap. He knows how to mix East and West and make it bump! I think that the people who say Kurupt ain't no good don't know rap. He's one of the best in the West...he puts his heart into his rhymes and I give this album its well deserved 5 stars.

Kurupt is for real., July 30, 1999
By A Customer
Can Kurupt do without Deathrow? Hell yeah he can. He has become CEO of ANTRA Records, his own Bicoastal hip-hop label. He is a true innovator. The best tracks are: "This One's For You", "Make Some Noize", "Put that On Something", "We Can Freak It", "Fresh", "C-Walk", "Housewife", "That's Gansta", "Ask Yourself A Question", and the whole East Coast CD. BUY IT!

Good SOLO debut - 2 discs one for each coast??, December 3, 2004
Kurupt's long awaited debut is a double disc, a west coast cd and an east coast cd, although the sound is not much different between the two. All in all it is a pretty good album but not as good as I expected. Out of the 23 songs there are 3 I never listen to and 3 or 4 more that are ok, the rest are quality, which leads to the fact that this could have been a 16 or 17 song classic... Production is handled by a large number of people and is pretty good. D-Moet does 4, Battlecat, DeVante, Daz Dillinger, Storm all do 2, and Dr. Dre, Kurupt, Soopafly, RJ Rice, Easy Mo Bee, Studio Tone, Twin, Warren G, MED all do 1, and 2 producers aren't listed. He has 7 solo songs out of the 23. A little below his "Space Boogie" and a little more below his classic "Streetz Iz a Mutha" but still a good 4 star album to have in your collection.
