Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

White Boys, director Marc Levin's (Slam) tale of Flip (Danny Hoch) and his friends' trip into the world of the gangsta rappers they think they want to be, features a diverse and impressive name-dropping cast. Snoop Dogg (featuring T-Bo) provides the raspy yet subdued title track with a slow gait that's downright subliminal. Raekwon adds the previously unreleased "Respect Power." DJ Hurricane contributes "Come Get It" and Busta Rhymes's "Flipmode Squad," the soundtrack's first single, is an unrelenting martial stomp. Clocking in at 74  minutes and featuring 17nbsp;cuts, White Boys is a near-overdose of street-tough posturing and hard beats. --Rob O'Connor

4.0 out of 5 stars White boy, white boy turn that down, January 30, 2011

This review is from: Whiteboys (Audio CD)

This cd has some great work from some great mc`s. You have Big Punisher, Snoop Dogg, Raekwon, Canibus, Slick Rick, Common, Cocoa Brovaz and Buckshot all on the same cd. "Come Get It" by DJ Hurricane, Rah Digga, Rampage and Lord Have Mercy is killer, Lord Have Mercy's voice is pure goth. Three 6 Mafia shine with "Wanna Be's" and Black Child even has a stellar cut with "I Can Relate". Well worth the money and if you're a Canibus fan, this version of "Watch Who You Beef Wid" is a different version then on "2000 B.C.".

4.0 out of 5 stars I Recently Saw the Film - Loved it - and I'm a Goth!, February 22, 2003

This review is from: Whiteboys (Audio CD)

Well, I only watched the film last night on my cable network down here in New Zealand. It was 4:AM in the morning, I could not sleep, and so I decided to get myself a drink and settle down to watch something that I normally would NOT think twice to even glance at.

From the openeing moments of the film, I was in for quite a treat, even though I'd never admit it to anyone in person.

The music was good, although I am a Goth and Industrial fan from wayback and have been in my own Gothic band for 10-11 years now. The beats were very well constructed and fitted the movie's atmosphere perfectly, I felt.

Quite honestly, I don't think I'd ever watch the film sober, for I don't think I'd fully appreciate it and enjoy it the same way i did this first time. But, in saying this - the Soundtrack and film are perfect for if you're having a party etc.
