East coast production wizard DJ Premier has announced a new project with West Coast rap legend MC Eiht, of Compton’s Most Wanted. DJ Premier will executive produce MC Eiht’s upcoming 11th album, titled Which Way Is West. In addition to executive production duties on Which Way Is West, DJ Premier will release the album on his independent label, Year Round Records. Which Way Is West will feature production by DJ Premier, Marco Polo and other upcoming producers, as well as appearances by Year Round artists NYGz. MC Eiht rose to fame as a member of gangsta rap group Compton’s Most Wanted, best known for three classic albums, It's a Compton Thang, Straight Checkn 'Em and Music to Driveby. He also had a starring role in the movie Menace II Society, which produced the single "Streiht Up Menace.” MC Eiht has released albums consistently over the past 15 years, including his last release Affiliated, which hit stores in 2006.

you're right, but DJ Premiere got mad talent. premo should be able to make that type of style

yeah...but Primo has those beats that make hits before anyone starts spitting...

it think it would be easier for Eiht to rhyme on Preem beats, than say it would be for a dude like Evidence to Rhyme on a Manny Fresh beats.

there is a certain essence to "traditional hip hop beats" that I think everyone can vibe too...

Jus watched EYES ON THE WESTSIDE..And ole Premo will be very very mad if he heard how Eiht was talkin bout how he dont fuck wit Eastcoast niggas...And if how he heard em on Ashy 2 Classy DVD he talks super bad about the Eastcoast artist with Mako Capone...
