    Brownside - "Eastside Drama" (1997) [5 Minutes of G-Funk Review]

    Brownside - "Eastside Drama" (1997) [5 Minutes of G-Funk Review]

    Originally published for the 4th of July weekend, I dropped the long awaited review of "Eastside Drama" by the legendary and infamous Brownside.

    I would like to dwell deeper into this album because there is sooooo damn munch to say about this project that both DJs Tony G and Julio G had a major hand in developing for the streets.

    This is a staple in every Chicano's library and now you get to hear the G-Funk Junkies take on it.

San Diego the Mecca of Chicano Rap

Season one had an in depth breakdown of some of San Diego’s Rap Legends first Album/ EP. Dope content, hope they touch base with the whole San Diego car and eventually branch out to the rest of the state. Waiting on more material keep up the good work.
