The Geto Boys 1990 Album

Geto Boys

A banging album where the energy never stops. While the first and final tracks are new, this is basically a remix album of their previous release, 'Grip It! On That Other Level'. I have heard the aforementioned album but I can't remember it well enough at the moment to make comparisons. At first I wasn't really feeling the sample on 'Gangster of Love' but it has grown on me and the 'gangsta boogie' part kind of makes up for it. 'Assassins', which is probably the most '80s sounding rap song in terms of the production (edit: it's the only song taken from their debut, so that makes sense), has a couple of what seems to be added/badly sampled vocals in the final verse that almost ruin that part of the song. I'll have to check the original to see what has happened there but it just sounds unprofessional. Best Tracks: Do It Like a G.O., City Under Siege
