This is one of the good albums from one of the greatest rappers of all time...Nobody cannot beat this...First off this album is a classic...Second....it was recorded & made somewhere around in 1987-1990 when Esham was 13-15 years old...I never heard so much talent from a young teenager that actually was selling albums...This is one of the very best...I dont know why many people have never heard of him...:/...thats what started to upset me a lil...but anyways...this album is tight...most of the stuff he spits is str8 wicked...Fav. Tracks: RedRum, Devils Groove, Eshams Boomin, Amen Another Sin, Cross My Heart, For All The Suicidalist...Oh and yea...the cd is the re-issue version...the first version is different & its a cassette tape titled "Boomin Words From Hell 1990" which has a different cover...it gotz three different songs that is worth listenin to & it is not on the cd (Tellin it how it is, Dont Trip, & Whatcha Back)..if you find it...peep it out cuz its rare

Esham (East.Side.Hoes.And.Money), the most underated rapper eva, a man who Feminem and She-12 have been biting for years and they get the credit and fame, but f*ck them, Esham would destroy them in a battle rap. Esham recorded this on a low budget, i mean come on he was 15 years old when he did this, this is a re-issue, the very first version had 3 more songs, but i think it is long out of print. Don't expect beats E went on to make years later, these are very simple beats but E makes it great and his lyrics are amazing. Many classic cuts on here including Redrum, Some Old Wicket S*it, Word After Word, Devils In The Soup and many more but Knockin Em Dead has to be my favourite, its just the lyrics, beat and samples he used on it, but everything else is just as good. Esham will never rap as good as he did here, if you stumble on to Esham and don't know who he is and you are looking for something new to listen to check E out, but no Pop Rap fans please because you wouldn't be able handle it.

ignore the f#ckwit who gave this cd a review of 1 star, he is a nas fan which explains he duz not understand what true rap is -- UNDERGROUND FOREVER
i bagged nas's illmatic album and sed that esham is the best rapper which he is and this c#nt had a little cry and had to give this album a low rating EVEN THOUGH HE DUZNT OWN IT NOR HAS HE HEARD OF ESHAM

good on ya mate, showed us all how much of a f#ckwit you are

This is not rap buy rap albums like Nas and KRS-One and Rakim and Big Daddy Kane and Tupac and Kweli and Aesop Rock and even Necro those are all real rappers these are all wannabe thugs.
