Pioneering the sound of West Coast mobb music, the Oakland rapper independently distributed this remarkably influential, funk-heavy debut from the trunk of his car. The minimalist production—relying on deep Roland TR-808 bass lines—provides a hypnotic backdrop for his slow, deliberate tales of street hustling and extreme hedonism.
