Eightball & MJG - On The Outside Looking In
Reviewed By: GRIM
Album Rate: 4.5 out of 5 Stars
This Eightball & MJG's second release, this is another crunk ass album, not as good as their first one but I dont think anything could duplicate that shit. The first cut is just a normal intro. After that is "Lick'em Up Shot", I aint really feelin the chorus on this cut but the lyrics by Ball & MJG are tight as fuck, they are droppin tight ass vocals to this bomb ass beat. "Crumbz To Brixx" is the next cut, and this beat on this track is chilled-very nice lil beat, the lyrics are really cold, Eightball starts off droppin real ass shit, then that niggas MJG comes in and kicks some nice shit.
"Players Night Out" is a different kind of cut for them, its alright but I still dont bump it all that much cuz the beat aint my style, the lyrics are nice though. "Sesshead Funk Junky" is crunk as fuck, the chorus is really nice singin, then Eightball starts it off kickin lyrics about gettin blown, really nice cut. "So What U Sayin" is next and its tight as fuck, it has an old school beat and I love that shit, the beat is very laid back and MJG shines on this cut with a somewhat fast rap, very nice song, Eightball gets off on this cut also. "No Sellout" is one of my favorite cuts on this album, the beat is John Blaze and Eightball kicks some dope shit on this, then MJG comes in and drops some tight shit also.
"Anotha Day In Tha Hood" has a classic old school beat also, very chilled laid back beat..The vocals are really laid back also, they are just kickin shit bout growing up and what goes on in the hood, very tight cut---1000 times better then shit they put out today. "No Mercy" is a solo by Eightball and its another crunk ass cut, Eightball really rips shit, he is telling a story and its really tight-you gotta hear this shit, he is straight droppin all the right words in all the right places. The next cut is called "On Tha Outside Lookin In" and its tight, its a solo by MJG.
"Break-A-Bitch College"---mane this song is funny as hell, its tight as fuck also, they are basically preaching bout how to break a bitch and how to pimp, very nice cut, yall need to peep this and learn some shit--they drop really nice lyrics. "Lay It Down" is a classic Suave song, it starts with Thorough from South Cicle flowing his ass off on this debut song, very nice shit, then that nigga Eightball comes in and rips shit up, he is followed by that Fryed out nigga Crime Boss-this gots to be one of his best verses ever, then MJG ends the song with a tight verse.
Overall this album is another must have, they are actually rapping on this album and kickin nice lyrics, not like that bullshit they put out today. The worst song on this album is 1000 Times better then then the best song on there new album. I gurantee yall will like this shit, anyone that likes southern music needs to get this album-but pick up Comin Out Hard first, then this one.
