West Coast Killaz is guitar master Harvey "The Snake" Mandel's second production collaboration with his son, vocalist Eric Mandel. Their first, "Lick This" was a modern contemporary techno recording which offered body-moving instrumentals and hip-hoppin' trance vocals whereas West Coast Killaz is a rap/hip-hop record blended with Harvey's cool, quirky, overdriven guitar jams. The CD features songs about crack dealers, dope and drive-by shootings ("3rd Street Killaz"), running from the police ("You're Busted"), hoes, 5-0s, and drug dealers ("Street Soldierz"), and homeboyz down on their luck ("Gimmie A Hit!") -- and contains the ubiquitous profanity one would associate with a rap release (the CD carries a Parental Advisory: Explicit Lyrics sticker). Rap/Rock, total running time, 43:34
