Kottonmouth Kings – High Society

Suburban Noize/Capitol




The poster boys for the LA suburbs return to spread more bud-fueled mayhem and they brought most of the Suburban Noize family with them. Johnny Rictor joins D Loc and Brad Daddy X as the lead rappers. With those three as the core of the group, High Society is able to stay focused even with all the guest musicians. High Society produced the hit single “Peace not Greed” and what should have been a hit single “Day Dreamin’ Fazes.”

You’re going to love this album, even if you don’t normally listen to hip-hop. Besides, it’s 4/20. What else do you have to do today? Work? You need to keep it real with the Kings.

Kottonmouth Kings – Royal Highness

It’s 4/20 so that means Kottonmouth Kings and lots of ‘em. Did you ever see that movie Alpha Dog? This record is kind of like an audio interpretation of that movie’s Orange County lowlifes.

Royal Highness was the Kings’ first major label album and “Bump”, the album’s hit single, was featured on the Scream 2 soundtrack. Saint Dog is featured prominently on Royal Highness. These days, Saint Dog and his brother are a hip-hop duo on Suburban Noize. Listen carefully and you’ll hear remnants of Brad Daddy X’s pre-Kottonmouth Kings punk band the Humble Gods. This is the album for people who wish rap had more of a punk influence.
