The album titled, "Too Tight" was shelved by the infamous Death Row Records. I'm sure it's no surprise to any of you today, since Death Row has pretty much shelved every highly antisipated album since the fall of it's hey day in the mid to late 90's.

I just listened to the Hammer album and although it's obviously dated, the album contains verses from Mac Mall, Big Daddy Kane and 2Pac (amongst others) throughout the Cd.

On track #8 (skit) they diss Rashid Wallace for dissing E-40. And follow on to mention Mac Mall, Dru Down, JT The Bigga Figga, Spice 1, Luniz, Lil' B.I.G, Black Pearl, Jet, Felony, Rappin' 4-Tay, Duce Life, K.P. etc etc...claiming that The Bay sticks together.

Followed by track #9: Town By The Bay where Hammer reps East Oakland and the Bay.

Just thought I'd throw it out there and enlighten some of you. Incase ya didn't know Hammer was putting it down for the Bay while he was on Death Row Records.

I wouldn't say this Death Row, Hammer album had slaps, but I just think of it as something that could of been, but never was.

The game has evolved so much from the 90's yet, has also fallen from grace in so many areas.

After listening to the album again, it sounds to be a rough draft of what it was to be.

Reguardless, it's kinda cool to listen to it now just for kicks. In which I think it's a much better mind state to listen to an album. Open / broad minded when we listen to it...not like listening to a lot of the newer stuff, where the hype is so big, we expect an overwhelming song or whole album. We can argue that we listen to albums now a days (new ones coming out), with an open mind, but fact of the matter is, most of the time it's out of curiosity. Only to find out that the ol' saying is right...curiosity killed the cat.

Back then, the music spoke for itself and artist didn't put too much on it. We the people / fans (there were real fans back then), made those albums CLASSIC, not the artist pumping it up to be something it wasn't. They were, what they were on their own...CLASSIC.
