2.0 out of 5 stars "Live From The Ghetto" Review, December 13, 2004

This review is from: Live From the Ghetto (Audio CD)

Whether he's "Cold 187" or "Big Hutch", Gregory Hutchinson has been regarded by many as one of the most underrated producers on the West Coast rap scene. The producer and frontman for Above The Law has dropped classic gems like "Livin' Like Hustlers" and "Uncle Sam's Curse" with his group but they have never been able to mantain a following. Big Hutch's second solo, "Live From The Ghetto" doesn't really do the veteran producer much justice. The very same guy who blessed us with the amazing "Black Superman" in 1994 seems a little uninspired on the production tip these days. Aside from the laid-back "I Used To Respect You", this album doesn't do much for me. Maybe I was expecting more here but I can't help but feel unimpressed by "Live From The Ghetto".

Its safe to say that you're an ATL fan if you bought this album. And if you're an ATL fan, then you're probably going to be a little dissapointed by this release. I would say this album is more like 2 and a half stars as opposed to three, and it doesn't really come close to the level of "Executive Decisions" solo album release prior to "Live from the Ghetto." This album feels like "Forver Rich Thugs"; I wasn't feeling that album either.

Edit 30 July 2007: Crazy Jim is right on about this album - I used to respect you is easily the best song on this largely forgetable album, and one of the best songs in ATLs library.

Finally, a new release from the camp of legendary west coast rappers Above The Law. This album refreshes the scene with the same hard, g-funk sound that Hutch and ATL originated. Hutch is top notch when it comes to producing, so you can expect a quality effort when he has his hand in it. This album is no different. Solid solo follow up album to Executive Decisions. There are a couple tracks that he tried something innovative, with different results. All said and done, the album is still bumpin'. "Gutta" is classic. This is how the REAL west coast puts it down. Check out this album.
