After hearing 'My name is ' went out and bought this album from HMV 11.99.
i had a mental picture of a skinny little black guy with round glasses looking a bit like spike lee (movie director)
to my shock a white guy with bleached hair .
Oh yes hear we go milli vanilli i thought
Then i read the credits and saw Produced by Dr Dre (N.W.A) probably best producer out there.
Now some people will find the album so offensive it would sicken them but when you sit and really listen to it the humour of his tone and the music it comes across as some comedy or cartoon character. Now listen to sounds in the background and you will understand why this album is just like listening to a film tracks like 'brain damage' "one day he came into the bathroom will i was pi**ing and had me in the position to beat me into submition"where he is being bullied 97 bonnie and clyde "oh wheres momma she's taking a little nap in the trunk oh that smell daddy must have run over a skunk " these lyrics are are just a couple of the top of my head but the overall content is priceless
Just imagine scary movie with a narrator intead of actors.
He manages to go through the whole album without using the N word which was a shock for me.
Now don't get me wrong i don't mind the N word but when its used every other line it gets a bit tire some.
20 tracks to get your teeth into
1) Public Service Announcement 2) My Name Is 3) Guilty Conscience 4) Brain Damage 5) Paul 6) If I Had 7) 97' Bonnie & Clyde 8) Bitch 9) Role Model 10) Lounge 11) My Fault 12) Ken Kaniff 13) Cum On Everybody 14) Rock Bottom 15) Just Don't Give A Fuck 16) Soap 17) As The World Turns 18) I'm Shady 19) Bad Meets Evil 20) Still Don't Give A Fuc
the orginality of the whole album is just absolutely refreshing
