This EP would be better if MC Eiht didn’t stop for breaks. He has no discernible talent when it comes to composing hooks, so he shouldn’t bother. He should just rap. Reciting “hood” poetry to “hood” beats is what he’s best at, so maybe he should rap one long verse on every song.
Even better would be to recruit guests, preferably “bitches”, to sing the hooks. Premier scratches, as featured on a few of these songs, can only do so much. Eiht, as far as MCs go, is nowhere near the best, but his grimy voice is listenable enough over a dope Brenk Sinatra beat.
