Miffed at being denied his props by his contemporaries despite what, for a rapper, is a long career spanning most of the '90s (including a stint with Ice Cube and Mack 10), WC has here awarded himself a Heisman Memorial Trophy (usually awarded to football stars, most notoriously to O.J. Simpson) for achievements in rap. The fact that he's seen fit to award this trophy to himself shouldn't blind you to WC's qualities as a rapper--which are self-evident--it's just that recognition can sometimes be a long time coming. GHETTO HEISMAN is West Coast rap, lighter and more musically sophisticated than its Southern counterpart, though no less concerned with matters street, thuggy and druggy.
WC's old Westside Connection bandmates Ice Cube and Mack 10 make an appearance on the Funkadelic-influenced "Walk," while there's a hilarious skit ("Fake N***as") in the style of a gospel meeting, and "Tears of a Killa" shows the hard-scrabble flip side of thug life in the 'hood. GHETTO HEISMAN should, all things being equal, earn WC the genuine respect of both peers and public.
