Potluck - Straight Outta Humboldt CD Review - 7/9/07 a 6:16pm

This was sent in by Dark Jedi Hillz, someone you're going to be seeing a lot more of in the future.  While this album came out last year, I know there's a lot of you that still haven't heard it yet.
Well, its a good thing i got some high-THC hash to burn while reviewing this CD.
 
1. Rock The World: This is the first song I ever heard by Potluck.  High production was concentrated on to make this a major release, especially when you get 21 songs for about 13 bucks.  I didn't think the beat was that strongest out of everything to make the first cut. Stars: 2
 
2. Get High: Oh that's right!  ok, hold on.. (puff puff cough)..  I liked this beat a lot better..  nice n slow to match that nigga lippin on that pinner yo holdin'..  the Chorus reminds me a bit of Psychopathic and they're using that high-pitch voice which only seems to work in a few instances.  Stars: 5
 
3. Fire: Yes!  What a beat!  Low frequency booms with sweet sounding female backin vocals and whistles and great background sounds, chants and scatches. There is a video available on this one at Suburban and i figure its the mostest shit done live. This song truly showcases Potluck's incredible talent. Stars: 8.5
 
4. Skit.  Too much like the one that ICP did.
 
5. Mary Jane: Weird little voice singing in this one, not sure if i like it or not.  For good reason, they break down the set list on this song with a slower beat and long pauses.  A little too much on the hip hop side for me. Features The Luniz Stars: 2.5
 
6. Money Makes The World Go Round: Sick Chorus, sounds like Bone Thugs at times, great slow beat to it. These guys seem to bring all these genres together nicely. Stars: 5.5
 
7. Dank Alumni: My favorite down n wicked track on this CD.  The beat is out of this world.  The verses are incredible from start to finish. Another weed song of course.  I can stomp something mean to this bitch....  Stars: 10
 
8. My Life: Weird voice distortion again. Yeah, its ok...  not really into it.  We slow back down again on this track but and softer on the vocals. Your usual story-tellin verses. Stars: 3.5
 
9. What We Are: OMG!  You get Tech N9ne, Big Krizz AND Potluck on this bitch.  It starts in your face and doesn't let up.  It only gets better as it continues.  Real HipHop sounding chorus.  Tech rips it and Kalico is just as good back this shit up. Stars: 7.5
 
10. U Aint That Fine: Groovy little dance tune they could play in most clubs and its pretty funny.  Talking about stupid bitches thinkin they all that walkin they walk...  hahaha...  oh..  eh, i could take it or leave it.. Features E-40 & Bosko. Stars: 3
 
11. Skit..  ok, skip..
 
12. Roll Big: I like this song. It has nicely positioned guitars and the Kottonmouth Kings who bring it for the lyrics.  Sounds like real drums too. Stars: 7
 
13. Doing Alright: Uh oh.. Potluck bringin it scrubby..  talking about they just like to hang and chill and be true with homies and not needin bling n caddies..  Its decent. Stars: 5
 
14. Welcome 2 Humboldt: Pretty much another weed song but more about Humboldt County. Basically the Weed Capitol of California.  Its a whole Grower county.. hahaha..  some ganja type chorus.  Trippy sounds but a nice sounding buzz in yo ear. Smoke one on this one....  Stars: 6
 
15. Love Me: Uh oh.. a love song..  Skip.
 
16. Revolution: With Chali 2na from Jurassic 5, this shit is off the monsta..  sick sounding backup chant vocals with great lines and harmonizing. Stars: 8
 
17. Skit:  ...yeah
 
18. Marijuana 101: Time for school kiddies..   Each verse talks about a different step in the weed game. Listen close.  Great song, bitchen beat matched with down ass pot rhymes.  (puff puff cough) Stars: 9
 
19. One Day: yeah, i dont like this one..  too much enough of that already on this album...
 
20. Our History: A not so bad story-tellin rap about them startin up and growin in their underground roots. Stars: 3
 
21. BONUS TRACK: Funeral (featuring: Twiztid): Ok, this is it yo..  this is THE SHIT!  Best track on the album, but like i said..  not my favorite. Very emotional..  makes you think..   how we wanna be represented when we cant represent ourselves...   Magical female vocals by aggressively moving piano....  Stars: 10
 
This is just my opinion. What's great, is that everybody has their own tastes and dislikes or likes..  This CD is definitely worth buying..  Juggalo, backpacker, whatever..  I think Suburban Noize should be proud of having these guys on their label.

worst review I've read in a long time. This album is honestly amazing. "Love Me" isn't just a "love song" either. Whoever reviewed it is just an idiot who'd rather skip tracks based on their names opposed to actually listening to it.

this album has been out forever.

Must not have been payin close enough attention. Didnt even know this cd was out. Yeah I'm a dumbass but oh well. I got that Funeral song off the internet a couple days ago and I agree, 10!!!!!!!!!!! that song is dope as hell. Potluck is DEFINATLY a great addition to Suburban Noize!!

I'm gonna have to agree that this review is a bit off. Not to be a hater cause I still got mad luv for anyone that works on this website... but I just don't agree with some of the analysis.

"Love Me" is a good song, shouldn't have skipped it! "What We Are" should have gotten a 10/10. "One Day" is also one of my favorites on the whole album, which you completely disregarded. And "Dank Alumni" does have a dope beat, but there's no way that it is the best on the album... doesn't even have a fuckin' chorus! To each his own I guess...

Yea pretty fuckin stupid review... Love Me is one of my fav tracks on this cd... the only prob i have with Potluck, i mean i know its there thing and all) is every single track minus 1 or 2 is all about weed... it gets a lil week after a while these guys are mad talented don't get me wrong and if that started tacklin sum other subjects it would make all around much better artists... The track Our History is bad as fuck... i like it it ain't bout weed it don't always gotta be about weed damnit!! And yall say the KMK are bad wit that shit haha Dank alumni... meh it kinda annoys me What we are DEF deserves a 10 and the track wit Twiztid is the best on the cd... and thats my opinion. Just like an asshole Everybodies got 1

The person reviewing this CD needs to pull his ears out of his anus. This is one of the best CDs to drop in 06, and one of the most solid CDs to come out in a while... Most Juggalos, hell most people, would have their heads bobbin on the first track.

Um, this site already reviewed this album back when it came out. Why not review Everready again too while you're at it?
I think Hitchcock is ruining RJ. It's totally gay now.
