This is Michael Mixerr. Today I will review the album, Don't Fuck With
Texas by P.K.O. (For those who own the Don't Fuck With Texas album on CD
and cassette, the names for Don't Fuck With Texas may vary.) This album
was released on Youngsta Records in 1989. P.K.O. was a rap group from
San Antonio, Texas! But get this! The whole album plays as one song so
you can't skip any tracks. I guess that's an error that Yo! Records and
Midwest Records had made and never fixed it. (Later Youngsta Records
titles were also distributed by Clout, SoSouth, Select-O-Hits, and SW
Wholesale.)
Don't Fuck With Texas is the hardest intro and first
track. Don't Fuck With Texas is the hardest intro ever known to
humankind!! It samples Van Halen - 1984! It always blew me away how Nino
managed to get away using 1984 as an uncleared sample. Because if Van
Halen knew about this, they would have filed a lawsuit as they did with
Tone Loc. I'm not sure how Nino managed to pull this. Dopest intro
ever!!
World War discusses the members of P.K.O.'s point of view
on war in general. This is a pro-war track rather than a pro-peace
track. Life In The Ghetto talks about what type of shit goes on in the
hood. Such as drugs, abuse and poverty. These two are political songs. I
like that, don't you?
Money Mackin' Trick is an edited version of
Money Mackin' Bitch , which would later appear on the Armed And
Dangerous album in 1990. Linny Nance from Dallas sings the background
vocals. The production was done by DJ Snake. World Peace is the same
thing as World War. Youngsta Mafia Theme is a shout out track.
I
love the Rock Intro. This album is more rock and hip hop than the
others. This album was overlooked. If this album had been longer and had
more songs, I would have given this album a 5/5***** and a 4/5****.
There should have only 2 skits instead of 4. Around 14 tracks would have
been appropriate. Their Armed And Dangerous album goes even HARDER!!
I rate this album, Don't Funk With Texas, 4/5****!
