Review:Where are you the Original Gospel Gangstaz ? I Love your Music , it brings me back to Highschool when I would rap your songs at lunch time to all those listening . For a second there, I thought I was one of the Original Gospel Gangstaz in Highschool. Keep holding on to the group and Bind Satan and his angelic race because the OGG's rip it up Jesus style.

Review:Het raprapport. Gospel Gangstas deel II. Het is 1996. Het G-Funk tijdperk. Het verhaal speelt zich af in de straten van LA. De mensen hebben de band met God verbroken. Bendes vechten tegen elkaar en maken elkaar af. De hoop is al opgegeven. Maar de stad wordt opgeschrikt en komt in rep en roer. Vier gangsters zijn er op uit om de stad te redden, koste wat het kost. Dit was niet hun eerste poging. Ze maakten eerder hun debuut met Gang Affiliated. Deze keer maakten ze het Christelijk complot met Holy Terra, het nieuwe platenlabel van DJ Dove (voormalig SFC). Holy Terra is de duivels ergste nachtmerrie! De Gospel Gangstas zijn bekleed met de wapenuitrusting van God, daarom deinzen ze nergens voor terug. Ze komen wijzer, zelfverzekerder en relaxter over. De CD is een complot en elk nummer die op de CD staat is een wapen op zichzelf. In het 2e nummer 'O.G.G.'s Go On' (Original Gospel Gangstas Go On) laten ze met trots zien dat ze in de laatste dagen samen met de Heer sterk staan. De munitie voor dit nummer is een synthesizer tune, vergezeld van soulzang in het refrein. Deze formule komt in andere nummers ook terug. Het opvallendste nummer is Demon Killa. Hierin rekenen de GG af met de duivel en demonen met krachtige volzinnen als deze: "I Bible whip'm... and my Bible might remain a conceald weapon. See prayers help my text spit, my Bible is my next clip...".

In de titelsong 'Do or Die' moeten mensen kiezen uit 2 mogelijkheden: Hemel of hel. Backslider (afvallige) gaat over het feit dat als je relatie met god vervaagd is, dat je altijd terug kunt komen. Na een controversi‰le, opschuddende, extreme en radicale terreuractie van de Gospel Gangstas wordt je tot nadenken gebracht met een preek. De Gospel Gangstas sluiten met een uitnodiging en gebed dit complot af. De Holy Terra saga continues..........

Review:This is the long awaited second release from the west coast rappers. This one has crossed over to their new lavel Holy Terra records, run by none other than DJ Holy, Terra. This being their second release I had high expectations for this album, and at first listen I was not disappointed. I thought that the sampling and beats were cool and George Clinton-like, but I found that after listening for a couple of weeks, it was already colledting dust on my shelf. I guess it's probably because that whole gangsta thing isn't quite what it used to be and the days of snoop are just about over. However it was enjoyable and I think that if you are still into that whole sound than you should probably check this one out, they are still pretty dope. Also keep your eyes peeled for new projects coming out on the Holy terra lavel like, CMC's "Everyday Death Sentence" and R&B artist Bobby Ross availa. Plus, somewhere down the line, a dance hall reggae group called Christian Massive.

Review:Het is 1996. Het G-Funk tijdperk. Het verhaal speelt zich af in de straten van LA. De mensen hebben de band met God verbroken, maar Gospel Gangstas staan paraat om tegen de veroorzaker, de duivel, te vechten. Ze maakten wederom een complot, maar dit keer in samenwerking met Holy Terra. En ze zijn weer geslaagd. Ze brachten de wereld in Rap & Roer. Zelfs in Nederland staat hun CD al drie weken in de Mega Gospel Top 20. Hah! Ze bewijzen dus dat er wel markt voor HipHop is. De CD klinkt volwassener dan hun vorige. De munitie is relaxte G-Funk beats, soulstemmen, ruige teksten, synthesizer tunes. Het coolste nummer vind ik Demon Killa, waarin de GG's koelbloedig afrekenen met de slaafjes van de duivel. The Holy Terra Saga continues.....

Review:This albumn is a MUST for those of us who used to listen to the likes of NWA, Ice Cube, and other 'west coast' ganster type rappers before we knew the Lord. It is refreshing to listen to some 'REAL' rap with a gospel twist. I thank the Lord Jesus Christ for these brothers and their music. Before you judge, LISTEN TO THE LYRICS! "Do or Die" and "Maybe If" are ALL THAT!!!!!!!!
- Bernard Green Jr. Atlanta Georgia

This album is rockin tha west coast hip hop to tha max with J.C. in da house! The double G's have a great message in this album and the lyrics are true! Keep the west coast rockin guys!
- Maceman

To the people who have disrespected the ministry of Christian rap long enough, this album addresses a vital need, that of getting the message to the streets in a way those people will receive it. Props to the O double Gs.
