Masta Ace does it again,
By
This review is from: Sittin on Chrome (Audio CD)
The best rapper you have never heard of, Masta Ace, puts out another classic cd. Sporting one of the most consistent careers of anyone to enter the rap game, it is hard to find a bad Ace cd, and although this is not his best effort, its a close contender. By far his most accessible work, its an enjoyable listen that will ultimatly leave you wondering why you have never heard of this stunningly talented mc before.
There are no really standout tracks here because unlike most cds, there is no filler, but some cuts do stand out. Born To Roll is an absolute necessity for anyone that loves ot pump the base in their care, but be careful because this one might blow out your system. INC Ride is a classic Ace posse cut as he talks about what he sees in his neighborhood. In the midst of the East vs. West Bloody feud, Masta Ace managed to blend West Coast beats with East Coast flow to create the perfect album for its time. I Highly suggest you pick this one up, along with anything else by Masta Ace

Completely slept-on classic,
By Patrick G. Varine "Make beats, not war, haha..." (Georgetown, Delaware) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Sittin on Chrome (Audio CD)
This CD is great. In the midst of the whole East-West beefing, Masta Ace, Lord Digga, Paula-to-the-P and Leschea put out a bumpin' album that marries the smoothed-out slickness of West Coast production values with the rough edge of New York hip-hop, and the result is a perfect album for ridin' around on a Friday night.
Ace says it at the end of the intro: "Let's take this ride..." From the silky bump of "The INC Ride" to the deep hit and mellow vibes of "Terror," there isn't a whole lot NOT to like about this album. Fans of Ace's later work will complain that he doesn't have much to say in comparison to his later, more concept-oriented albums, but the h*ll with that. Redman never had ANYthing to say; doesn't mean he didn't say it WELL. He's still my favorite MC! "People in My Hood" is an excellent slice-of-life about folks around the way, "4 Da Mind" flips a tricky beat into a nice song and I'll be honest, "Born to Roll" should be mandatory listening for anyone with subwoofers in their ride. To me, this album has a wide appeal for hip-hop heads from coast to coast. Don't sleep. Especially when it's this cheap used on Amazon!

Born To Roll',
By hockeyplaya187 "Hckyplaya187" (Compton, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sittin on Chrome (Audio CD)
Sittin on Chrome by Master Ace is a diamond in the rough. I loved it when it came out and I still love it now. The style is Brooklyn Bass with an LA sound to it. When its done right it is hot and incredible sounding. Sittin on Chrome my top choice for tracks but there are others..INC RIDE, People in my Hood and Born to Roll are the some of the strongest..The only thing that keeps it from a 5 star album is the other rapper on the album. I dont even know his name or care to..the beats are all knockin though even the intro..Classic Unknown Material right here..
Born To Roll' the best beat to jam for sure LOCC
