This is Michael Mixerr. Today and tonight I will review the Pork - Under The Influence album released on Acropolis Records in 1997.
Pork was known as Kyle Adams from Pasco, Washington, US near Seattle. Although Pork is not very similar to Sir Mix-A-Lot and Kid Sensation, Pork is similar to Wojack, Syko, Red Head Steve, Sweet P, and Crafty. Pork had somewhat made a name for himself in the Seattown music scene. The rapper Pork was very well known in Pasco.
Under The Influence album has that pure West Coast gangsta rap funk sound. Most of this overlooked masterpiece compromises of hardcore gangsta rap and sexual suggestive themes. Some of it is freestyle rap. Pork keeps it both lyrical and gangsta at the same time. Most of this album is what playas be listenin' to. Some of these tunes are good to play at nighttime.
The title track of this album is the best track! Heavy hitting bass notes over guitar strings loop into this track out loudly. The bass is very deep. Think deep bass. The producer added a bit of auto-was to add into the effect of the deep bass which from a production aspect fits in quite well. Auto-wah with deep bass is a superb choice. The producer did a great job for this track. Still, Pork keeps it very gangsta.
Dollar Focus is a really sexy song. Yet it is gangsta at the same time. Dollar Focus is both about crime and sex. The track Dollar Focus proves to be very powerful lyrically. This should have been a single and a music video.
Dat Niggaz got a tight electronic cymbals kit to it. I really love it. The beats are quite smooth and impressive! I got hooked on this and you will too.
I rate this album, Under The Influence, 5/5*****.
