With only the occasional sluggish beat, the production is mainly comprised of fast, energetic beats that are the perfect compliment to Eazy’s rapping.Įazy-E is the same “badmouth nigga on the violent tip” “from the C.P.T.” he’s always been. Taking the elements of your typical G-funk beats such as creeping bass rattles deep, slow-rolling synths frequent kicks and snares and your occasional drum undertones, Eazy hyperizes the average West coast, gangsta rap instrumental to match his upbeat flow. But on songs like Wut Would U Do and Tha Muthaphukkin Real which he slows it down a bit to provide contrast to his speed.īecause he flowed faster than your typical Cali gangster rapper, Eazy-E selected a crop of high-paced beats. Usually relying on his gangsta poems and his signature voice, Eazy-E is consistently exhibiting a fast flowed assault. With possibly his fastest G-funk beats ever like Nutz on Ya Chin, Eazy showcases what he’s capable of as an MC. Of course, nothing changes on this album.
His whiny, teenage voice uptempo beats and fast paced flow varied from that of the usual smoky, husky voice slow-going funky beats with relaxed flows of most west coast gangsta rappers. He was only 32, and left seven children in the world… Recorded during his life, released posthumously after he died of AIDS in the Spring of '95, Eazy-E left us with one we can appreciate.Īlways one to be different, Eazy-E stood out in the rap crowd, well, not in a real crowd, because he was like 5-foot-3, but his rapping style was particularly unique, especially differentiating from other west coast rappers. One of those lives was gangsta rap star Eric Wright. Eazy went out with a bang, and surprisingly, it wasn’t the bang of a gun. His unapologetically hood lyrics, his recognizable nasally voice, and his uptempo flow makes Str8 Off Tha Streetz of Muthaphukkin Compton a great record.
