5.0 out of 5 stars
AWESOME, April 13, 2006
This album is a huge step-up from "Hatchet Warrior", in my opinion. That was a really good album aswell, but this is an awesome album. ABK can actually sing really well also. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this album to all juggalos!

4.0 out of 5 stars
ABK keeps bringin' the flavor with 'Dirty History'..., August 20, 2005
Let me say first off: I don't get why ABK recieves so much hate from juggalos. IMO he's a real cool person to have on Psy. He's different, alot different than what you'd usually hear, and he fits in perfect with the mix of things. Also, he wasn't as bad on TFTLP as juggalos make him out to be...but anyway, back to this review.
For the most part ABK's debut on Psy, 'Hatchet Warrior', was well-recieved by most juggalos. It had alot of guest spots & such so I'm not sure if that's what drew most people in or if they were actually listening to ABK's vocals. Anyway, I think that's sort of the reason why this album wasn't as well-recieved.
'Dirty History', ABk's sophmore effort, is mostly just ABK. Yeah it has all the Psy family teaming up on parts of it but it dives alot deeper into ABK holding his own without having a guest spot on every track. The CD kind of flows together all-the-way through, too, and that might be why some people dislike it.
Here's my breakdown of 'Dirty History':
1. Intro - Alright intro. Sets the mood well for the album. N/A
2. Bombs on You - Real average intro-ish track. Sort of similiar to #2 on 'Hatchet Warrior' in the fact that it seems like its just an intro-track or something. Not really worth hearing IMO. 2/5
3. Stick and Move - Now here's when the album kicks off. Nice track with some a good, hard chorus. ABK holds it down on this track & if you've peeped the Road Fools DVD there's a real low-budget video shot for this one. 4/5
4. Down Here (feat. Violent J) - Interesting concept. ABK & J do well together but this track has always seemed kind of boring or something to me. Good to hear, though, cuz I know alot of people like it. 3/5
5. Gimmie Ah Beat - I love this track. It makes me think of freestyle beatboxin' or something. It sounds real fresh and ABK spits some hot ish for like 2 verses. The skit at the end is funny, too, and a nice segway into #6. 5/5
6. Party at the Liquor Store (feat. Colton Grundy) - When I first picked up this LP I loved this track. Now its kind of wore out on me. Blaze (Colton Grundy) is dope as f**k on this track & its always good to hear ABK & Blaze together. There's another low-budget video shot for this one on the Road Fools DVD, as well. 3.5/5
7. Hey Yall - The "single". Amazing track. Killa really goes deep in this one. There's a video shot for this one & its dope...NOT low-budget, too, looks like a real video (a good quality one, anyways). 5/5
8. Retaliate (feat. Twiztid) - Good track. A Twiztid appearence is always good no matter what & ABK holds his own here. Mono is really dope on this track BTW. 4/5
9. Trees and Woods - I'm not sure what to think about this. It seems like it would be good but its so slow-moving I can't stand listening to it. Shows some depth but once again its way too slow for me to stand. 2/5
10. Nevehoe (feat. Shaggy 2 Dope) - Nice native feel...again. Anyway, Killa's fresh on here, but Shaggs verse is really strange. "Your new name is vittle fingers/cuz you're a bank account rapist tryin 2 steal my dinners"...o_O. Not sure what to think after that. 3.5/5
11. Laugh at You - Probably my fav. off the album just becuase this one I can really, REALLY relate to. The whole "outcast, freekshow" theme applies here, and once again, its really easy for me to relate. I really like the part at the end, too, where the kids are screaming "THEY'RE ALL GONNA LAUGH AT YOU!"... 5/5
12. It Doesn't Matta (feat. Colton Grundy & Esham) - Another fav. of mine. The beat is SICK & this is another in-depth performance from Killa. Blaze's verse is unbelievably good & Esham sticks to the hook, which is probably for the best since both ABK's verses & Blaze's are untouchable on here. 5/5
13. Oh No - Meh. Skippable. That's all I can say. 2/5
14. Charlie Brown (feat. Violent J) - Well, this one is the worst on the album. Really, really, really annoying hook & unless you're as high as they are you're not gonna like it. This is like "Mr. Sesame Seed Pt. 2" as well & that's a really bad thing. 1/5
15. Put My Life on It - Back to fresh sh*t. Another good lyrical performance from ABK. 4/5
16. Can't Help It - Same as above ^. Another good lyrical performance & the hook is pretty hard too. Good sh*t. 4/5
17. 2 Whom This May Concern - Really good ending track. This one's a real good ballad-type track. Like sombody said before it sounds like a mix of "Nothing's Left" & "I'm Alright". Also another low-budget video of this is featured on Road Fools. 5/5
So, overall, I'm not gonna say this was better than HW, but I still liked it. Definitely not as bad as alot of juggalos make it out to be...
The low-points are really low on here, but the high-points are all 5/5 tracks. So yeah, definitely an album worth adding to your Psy. collection.
