This is Michael Mixerr. I will review I Ain't Trippin' EP/Album by South East 1. South East 1 was a group of four from San Diego, California in 1995. South East 1 was Ajamu, Chocolate T, Wendell B, and ANG. South East 1 was only a one time thing. They were on BottomLine Entertainment/Break Bread Records. They group disbanded in 1996 because Wendall B was in jail at the time and the music game changed with life. Stuff happens. For those who don't know, Wendell B was in jail at the time for some of the recording process for the I Ain't Trippin' album. I give credit to Kyle Evans for showing me this EP! And Sonny Bo also!
The very G-Funk intro starts off with the double guitars and deep bass along with the G-Funk sine wave. No one can fuck with the South East 1! Dopest Intro ever! Dago Luv is about having love for San Diego. All about that hometown love. Dago Luv is another great track! I Ain't Trippin' is the title track of course. So brothas and sistas, don't trip! Boui Session is more of a skit about smoking and drinking. South East 1 is about having fun. Smoking fruits and knockin' boots. Real G's is real shit! It's dope! Back N Da Bottoms starts off with a game of pool and then the phone rings. It was Wendell B and he was calling from jail. As I explained earlier, Wendell B was in jail at the time for some of the recording process for the I Ain't Trippin' album. Sample Fest is a sample crazy outro. There is a Limited Edition EP Release with an interview. The Limited Edition EP Release has 9 tracks.
The only downsides are that there are only 8 tracks and I didn't like the Back N Da Bottoms song either.
I rate this EP/album, I Ain't Trippin, 4/5****.
