Disco de Kottonmouth Kings: “Hidden Stash II: The Kream of the Krop”

OC's greatest are back with their 3rd full-length album and higher than ever. With the cancelation of the re-release of Hidden Stash I, Hidden Stash II has been released in it's place. On the 16 track effort enlightens it's listeners with tales of the suburbs in Cali, crooked cops, and hard times on the road, Kottonmouth Kings blow out another huge 'hit'. Songs like "Tell Me Why" and "Life Rolls On" are fine expamples of the Kings transformation from backyard beats to slow and stony bass-lines. "Bi-Polar" and "Dying Daze" are great showcases of the Kings' ability to mix punk with hip-hop. This album is every Kottonmouth Kings fan's dream. To sum it up, all I have to say is: Saint who?

this is one of the first cds i got from the kings. i have been listing to burned copies for years but now i have saved up some cash and baught them all. i have probably listend to this the most cuz i took it to florda when i went. i never got sick of it, great great stuff here. the only songs that i dont listen to as much are: New Destination, My Minds Playin Tricks on Me, and Grow Room Jam. now dont get me wrong, these songs arnt bad, they just dont appeal to me as much. this cd is great, so go out and get it.

KMK came out with Royal Highness and blew every stoners mind with their blend of funk, punk, rap, reggae and whatever other music they felt would better the album. High society took that to a higher level and blew KMK fans away once again. With Hidden Stash 2 out, The Stoner crew have proven themselves to everyone, once again taking their own sound to a newer level. Even though Saint Dog left, Johnny Richter more than fills in his shoes, he creates his own line of running shoes, sandles and flip flops. Each song blends wonderfully with the next song and keeps you wishing it was a double CD with twice as many dope tracks. Once again KMK never ceases to amaze their fans and disprove thier detractors.

The Kottonmouth Kings are back yet again with a new cd-big deal? HELL YEAH! This cd is probably their best yet. It isn't as long as High Society, but it still doesn't dissapoint. HS2-Kream of the Krop is still over 60 minutes long. They have Dog Boy back for 2 tracks, the Humble Gods for 2 tracks and The JUDGE on "Killa Kali"-in my opinion, the best song on the album.

No big rappers like ICP or Sen Dog on this one, but the Krew is better than ever. On track 10, D-Loc gets on the sensitive side, a damn good song. The whole cd is playable and KMK doesn't let down on their 3rd full length.

-I'm Out-

If you like the kottonmouth kings then def pic up this cd. it is a good blend of old school sounds by them with newer sounds. a must have for anyone who likes to bump kmk
