| | Kurupt: MusicWorld® Hitmakers Story (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08) |
 | | On his third solo album, Space Boogie: Smoke Oddessey, hip-hop star Kurupt (aka Young Gotti) says that after nearly a decade of forging groundbreaking and often provocative jams that helped put West Coast rap on the contemporary musical map, he's starting to grow into his status as an elder statesman of the urban music scene. |
 | | Kurupt also brings a number of other talented folks into his musical modes on the new disc, such as fellow hip-hop homeboys Xzibit, Nate Dogg, Tha Liks, Daz, MC Ren from N.W.A. and Jon B., as well as some friends from the rock-rap camp like Everlast and Fred Durst and DJ Lethal of Limp Bizkit. |
 | | Kurupt seems happy with his life right now, having landed parts in two movies (The Plague Season and Keepin' It Real), and feeling satisfied with his latest CD, saying "This album is the first time I'm able to do whatever I want, however I want." |
