You was only 60 pounds when you weren't wearing boots!

"The line that Eazy E spewed at arch nemesis Dr Dre for his and Snoops' brutal Eazy diss "Dre Day" way back in '92. But it was true, pre NWA, Dre rocked the sequins, the eyeliner, didn't blow chronic ( don't smoke weed or cess cuz it's known to give a brudda brain daamge ), and rocked the above mentioned boots. But dress habits aside, this is pretty decent electro funk for the time, which was mid 1980's. you could kinda call WCWC a West Coast Afrika Bambaata and soul Sonic Force, but they pale in comparison to the Bam's crew. Taking influences like Bam, Cameo, Rick James and James Brown, they created a fairly decent catalog but nothing that would stand the test of time. Even though early hip hop/electro funk may sound cheesy in 2006, this sounds REALLY cheesy. It's good but you'd be enjoying Rick James( R.I.P. beyoootch ) or anything from early Bambaata days alot better, especially the "Unity" EP he did with The Godfather of Soul."
