Solid album.

(4 out of 5 stars)
"Straight outta Flint, MI, comes The Dayton Family's own Ghetto E with his solo debut. And while this isn't as good as his brother Bootleg's solo (Death Before Dishonesty), Ghetto Theater brings more of the same gangsta we've grown to expect from The Dayton Family.
The first single, Lolipops, is a stray from that formula, but the results are infectious. This is a track you'll have stuck in your head all day.
On the harder side, Ghetto E comes through with tracks like Ball Like Dat (featuring Shoestring and MC Breed), Playa Hatta (featuring Bootleg and Swift D), and Resume Of A Killa (featuring Bootleg, Esham, and Streetlife).
The album falters on only a few out-of-place and misguided tracks, but overall, Ghetto Theater is the perfect snack to hold you over until the next Dayton Family album."
