Review

Former Sick Wid It affiliate B-Legit spends the majority of Hempin' Ain't Easy boasting about blazing bud the way fellow Cali Bay Area rapper Too Short boasts pimpin'-ain't-easy about exploiting women. Beyond his drug-game fixation, B-Legit is as witty as ever and hosts some notable guests: rappers Snoop Dogg, Kurupt, Mack 10, Lil' Keke, and Mac Shawn, and E-40, as well as producers Ant Banks, Studio Ton, Daz Dillinger, Meech Wells, Tone Capone, and Bosko. Hempin' Ain't Easy is thus a solid West Coast release with an all-star lineup, not quite as inspired as his Hemp Museum album from a year earlier but solid nonetheless and certainly worthwhile for fans of Bay Area rap. ~ Jason Birchmeier, All Music Guide
