"KOKANE RELEASED A PRETTY AWFUL DEBUT IN 91 CALLED "WHO AM I" ON RUTHLESS RECORDS, BUT RECTIFIED THIS IN 94 WITH HIS UNDERGROUND CLASSIC "FUNK UPON A RHYME". I DONT THIMK U CAN BUY THIS ALBUM ANYMORE BUT IF U EVER C IT BUY IT QUICKLY! IT IS ONE OF THE MOST BIZARRE, UNIQUE, FRESH, PSYCADELIC RAP ALBUMS U WILL EVER HEAR.BUT AS 4 THIS NEW ALBUM, I THINK KOKANE HAS LOST IT.THE PRODUCTION SOUNDS PRETTY LOW BUDGET AND KOKAS LACKING ON THE CREATIVITY, AND ALL THE GUEST RAPPERS DONT DO ANYTHING TO HELP IT. MAYBE ITS BECAUSE COLD 187 DOESNT PROVIDE THE BEATS 4 KOKANE ANYMORE.IF YOURE A BIG FAN OF FUNK UPON A RHYME THIS WILL B A BIG LETDOWN, BUT IF YOUVE NEVA HEARD THAT RECORD AND U WANT A KOKANE CD THEN U MIGHT LIKE THIS. SONGS LIKE "MAJOR PAPERS" AND "ON THE GRIND" ARE PRETTY COOL OVERALL THO THIS IS DISSAPOINTING.BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD 4 KOKANE."

Worldwide bomb!!

"we call him Mr KANE all over the world, the spiritual, musical son of the motherfunker president GEORGE CLINTON. Believe me, this album is a new gangsta rap way, the perfect mix between p-funk and gangsta rap! you won't regret it!!"

They Call him Mr. Kane!

"This record came out in 1999, and is far from Kokane's strongest CD. It has som great tracks and overall a really good feel to it, but Kokane can do much better than this.



That being said I wouldnt have missed it for the world. It features SEVERAL beats by my favourite producer Battlecat (and everyone know Kokane+Battlecat = succes) as well as beats/apperances by DJ Silk, Bad Azz, Tray Dee, Spice1, Short Khop, Too Short and more.



I would recommend this cd for tracks 3 and 9 alone, but no matter what it is a must for any Kokane/westcoast fans"
