N.W.A Album: “100 Miles and Runnin'”

This was their first release after Ice Cube left the group, due to problems over money between cube and the n.w.a manager. But N.W.A proved lyrically they could do without Ice Cube. The beats obviously stay tight, but the lyrics here are more funny in some songs, such as Sa Prize (Part 2), which is part 2 of n.w.a's classic F___ Tha Police, and it features some HILARIOUS skits between verses. Just Don't Bite It, is also hilarious, with the name explaining. 100 Miles & Runnin' has a dope beat and is faster song than the others, and they prove they can step up a notch on the mic. Real N*ggaz is another tight song great lyrics, and funky chorus. Kamurshol is a song that promotes their upcoming album Efil4zaggin, which was the purpose of this EP. Bottom line is, you wont be able to find it nowadays, its long out of print, but u can find it on the remastered version of Efil4zaggin, so if u havent already go that album, then get it for this, or if you are a collector, it is worth the search on ebay or whatever for this.

This EP is one of N.W.a's high points proving they were going to on without Ice Cube and even stronger without him and in my opinion is there second best piece of work next to S.O.C Here is a quick rundown:

100 Miles and Runnin-10/10 Like Straight Outta compton a very forceful entry and surprising beat

Just Dont bite It- 8.5-9/10 Preety funny but kinda a let down after such a forceful entry song

Sa Prize-10/10 This was just amazing best part of the CD great beat

Real Niggaz-9.5/10 Real good beat and good lyric delivery especially M.C Ren

Kumorshal-I wont really count this do to it is just a advertisment for Niggaz4Life but the beat is really good

YO man this cd is tight they dont have this ep anymore but it comez wit tha Efil4zaggin + 100 milez N Runnin pack.Tha first track is about escapin tha police its really tight i think mc ren has tha best verses dres is alright but y is eazys tha shortest dre shouldve been tha shortest he aint dat good.Just dont bite it is a track about mc ren rappin about this girl dat he knew from school.Sa prize F' tha police (part 2) is really tight too it starts off by tha d.o.c talkin to a cop about some guys (NWA) chillin so tha cops could come and bust them at 4 in tha mornin then tha d.o.c tells dre dat tha police is comin at 4 and nwa gets prepared to kill and then u hear tha cops and they bust in tha door and nwa starts shootin tha cops.Real zaggiN is a diss track to ice cube but they dont mention cube until dres 2nd or 3rd verse when dre says"so im glad we got rid of benidct arnold".Kamurshol is tha last track its just tellin everybody wut there new album is called and mc ren is tellin everybody to cop it so cop this and efil4zaggin if u dont already have it.

This EP brings back some good memories. Though clearly missing Ice Cube, Dre and co. were able to come up with some decent stuff. A good collectors item for old-schoolers.

These EP is the Bomb, Eazy,Dre,Ren,Yella,D.O.C was a Deadly Combination in the late 80's and in the early 90's.
