While preparing this text, I asked to write my outline for me in order to cover this topic as best and as fully as possible and present it to you easily and clearly. For my first album article, I would like to discuss one of the most underrated G-Funk albums to come out in the early 90’s, Steffon’s Trippin’ Wit No Luggage which came out in 1994. The album was surprisingly released by the popular Ruthless Records label. Looking back, there really was no album promotion other than a music video for “Frost Bit” and a few magazine advertisements. Every song on the album was produced by Ruthless Record’s former head producer, Rhythm D, and features no guest appearances. The standout song for me would have to be the lead single “Frost Bit” that was mentioned earlier in this post. The story of the song is about a black kid named Ronnie who sells out and tries to be white. If your a fan of story telling songs, this is a must listen for you. The rest of the songs were laid back, party-oriented west coast funk that included Steffon’s humorous side. After his debut and death of Eazy-E, it looked like he basically disappeared from the rap game but was later featured on Eazy-E’s posthumous album, The Godfather Of Gangsta Rap. A few years later after that release, he now goes by the name of Roach Killa and owns a independent record label known as Lefsyde Productions.
