Californ-i-a by way of BK
Example of a Chino XL line

"I'm the most psychologically dominate rhyme psychologist in the continent
The opposite of all these commercialized puppets profiting from topics about nonsense
Jewels and ice, my rhymes consumed by Christ, but I'm twice the man God ever thought to be
Stalking streets, leaving your corpse on beats, from New York to Portuguese
I'm Moses aborted seed, killing every body from the North to East
Now watch as the plot worsens
Punch in the face until my arms start hurtin'
You ask for the beating to stop like when James Gandolfini heart stopped workin"

That shyt easy to do

That's not all he does at all.

I like both Pac's and Chino's music. But similar to Canibus, Chino's music didn't "age" very well, I still listen to his songs sometimes, but the replay value is meh...no hits, and after hearin' a great punchline for the 100th time is not the same as when you hear a hit song that you immediately recognize and vibe to. Plus, his beat selection is also average at best.

That's a reasonable comment, at least your not being extreme for the sake of hating. I do feel like he expanded though, there's a bunch of Chino songs I can bump any time.

:to:


mixing issues aside Ricanstruction was such a strong effort IMO. Always been a Chino fan, very much an underappreciated talent. Even 2Pac stans have to realize Pac himself knew dude was potent, he wouldn't have mentioned some scrub by name on Hit em Up

-P-


Ricanstruction was so dope to me it's one of the albums that was worth the mammoth wait. It's probably a 4.5 mic album to me. Some of the lyricism and flows really were spectacular and I felt there was artistic growth on the album.

If you disagree with his content sometimes I could understand that, but he's far from trash.
From his first album to now he has fallen off considerabley lyrically, cadence wise, flow wise and technically. He has never captured a moment in his career like this, since this moment in time, friend. He just doesnt have it anymore. He spits struggle lyrics now.

Disc Two is the full album with a DJ Mix by World Famous MR. CHOC of L.A.’s POWER 106, with interludes with CHINO talking about each song. This is the only link I've found talking about it. http://z14.invisionfree.com/ChinoXL/ar/t515.htm
