#89 RAP TAPES: East Side Story


The hispanic causing panic got me all on this stupid Mexican rap kick at one point, and you got to give Frost credit for one thing - he single-handedly created a genre of rap that may not be mainstream accessible, but is evident in every car show pictorial of each month's Low Rider magazine. This tape I dig, but the lyrics are kind of predictable, and the beats are kind of predictable, very oldies soul oriented samples and rehashing of old soul song concepts lyrically. It makes for a good tape to play here and there, but that shit can be kind of stupid if you actually try to seek it out.
