 Just incase you are just gettin into E-40 Apr 03, 2006
Those of us in the Bay have been slappin this s*** for years, This CD is a classic. You can listen to it straight through over and over and maybe hear where some of your favorite rapper's got their slang from.

 Different... but it's still good! Jun 26, 2005
This album shows a big change in E-40's style - mainly in terms of the production. On this one - Rick Rock handles a major part of the beats - 7 out of 16 songs. Some of his beats are great, and some are kind of weak. Lyrically, y'all know where E-40 is at. He keeps coming out with some new slang (sometimes a little but too much, but it's all good!), and those fast flows (which makes his sound off-beat at times). But the thing is - E-40 spits nothing but game. I think the best songs on the album are "Pimps, Hustlas" (An AWESOME beat by Tone Capone, great verses by 40 Water and a remarkable guest appearence by Levitti - best song on the album, so addictive!), "Fallin' Rain" (a laid-back song, with a classic R&B sample, produced by Rick Rock, where 40 talks about his life), "The Slap", "It's a Man's game" (the hardest songs on the album, both produced by Rick Rock"), "Mustard and Mayonaise". And you gotta mention "Rep Your City" - the club banger of the album. It's got a very good beat by Lil' Jon, and all rappers (E-40, Petey Pablo, Bun B and Eightball) deliver tight verses, but all that screaming and shouting by Lil' Jon is getting way too annoying!! Without it, the song would be perfect... There are quite a few other songs worth mentioning, showing that this is another VERY solid record by Charlie Hustle. Only about 3 or 4 songs out of the 16 are not that good. Producers include Rick Rock, Tone Capone, Bosko, Mike Dean, Mike Mosley & Sam Bostic and a few others. As I said earlier, E-40 changed his style on this album quite a bit, and fans that has been following him since his "Federal" days (like myself) will miss the Mobb Sound, but it's still a very good album. With 40, it's all about consistancy and quality - he's been in the game since the late 80's and he never fell off.

Unique In Tha Game Apr 23, 2004
E-40 delivers a solid album in "Grit and Grind." He made a smart decision in using "Automatic" as the first single. He and Fabolous contrast well with 40's slang-filled flow and Fab's cut-throat style. "Whomp Whomp" and "'Til the Dawn" have good collaborations from the Bay Area's finest and "Slap" provides a good opening and solo flow from E-40. Towards the last tracks, the album loses some of its fire in "End of the World," "Pimps, Hustlas," and "Fallin' Rain." I was also somewhat disappointed in "Roll On" featuring Afroman. There was not much rap on the track, but that could have been 40's intention to end his song wit just tha music playing. Overall, E-40 shows he is unique in the game with his one-of-a-kind slang, metaphors, and comparisons and proves that he could be da best artist in the Bay Area.
