In 2005 this record dropped under the radar. Death Row was running on fumes but still managed to drop what I consider to be one of the dopest Kurupt projects. What adds to the strangeness of this album, are the missing tracks that made it to "Down and Dirty", the missing Petey Pablo track and then the tracks that were straight up cut for good. Including "No Vaseline 2". It's all a crazy piece of gangsta rap history and Death Row. I'll give my thoughts on every track on this record. I'll share a few snippets even. After we look at the physical CD then in the end we'll grade the album. Join me as I dive right in to the deep end on Kurupt's "Against The Grain".
