 MC Eiht - Biography - AOL Music
Veteran West Coast gangsta rapper MC Eiht dedicated much of his life to rap, beginning his seminal career with Compton's Most Wanted (CMW) while only a teenager.
Despite his youth, Eiht's contributions helped catapult CMW to national fame in 1990 with It's a Compton Thang.
Eiht's sales numbers unfortunately went downhill from there, though he retained a cult audience over the years and remained loyal to longtime affiliates Slip and Mack 10.

 MC Eiht - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
MC Eiht also had a role in 1998's movie, Thicker than Water as Lil Ant with Mack 10, Fat Joe, Ice Cube, WC, CJ Mac, Big Pun, and Cypress Hill's B-Real.
The feud was fueled by the fact that Eiht had ties to the Crips (he's a member of Tragniew Park Compton Crips) while Quik had ties to the Bloods (he's a member of Tree Top Piru, another gang from Compton).
More recently, MC Eiht has begun working with Snoop Dogg, appearing on two songs from Snoop's new album Tha Blue Carpet Treatment and also participating in Snoop's side project Warzone along with Goldie Loc and Kam.

Eiht: "The only problem I see with it is that you have two powerful entities in the music business.
Eiht: "I think the way rap is goin' is that a lot of rap artists are gonna finally start gettin' into their own projects as far as runnin' their own companies and their own labels."

 Rap News Network - Compton Rapper MC Eiht Delivers New Release
Eiht says, "Chill made the beat, and she wanted to rip it, so we let her get down, and we decided to hop on down there with her.
More importantly, however, MC Eihts music is the soundtrack of the streets, and of the Hub City, Compton, California, a feat that is envied by many other artists, despite their heavy padding from corporate bankrolling that has helped spawn a growing number of wanna-be imitators.
Designer gangstas versus real Compton is the result, as MC Eiht has watched the commercialization of a culture that came into significance through artists like himself, who grew up in Compton, and who brought its issues to the attention of the rest of the world.

Banks’ assertion on his madly successful album keenly demonstrates how deeply it is ingrained within hip-hop consciousness that MC Eiht is known as being the streets’ ultimate spokesperson for the West Coast.
Rolling Stone Magazine was among the media outlets that joined in the frenzy to address the fact that Eiht’s record label, Epic Records, felt compelled to issue an extra warning sticker on the disc, which stated that Eiht’s lyrics were not necessarily the opinions of the Sony label.
Again, as noted by the album’s title, Eiht is reveling in the light of a long career that has garnered him sheer respect from the streets, as well as countless props from other artists.

Here Eiht rhymes gently about doing whatever it takes to get paid while Slip's keyboards hover alongside some smooth, jazzy guitar and "la la"s in the distance.

With MC Eiht proving his legitimacy as a legend in the rap game, his successes seemed to be frequently overshadowed by his well-publicized “beef” with fellow Compton rapper DJ Quik as they exchanged jabs at each other throughout the 90’s.

 Veterans Day - MC Eiht - Song Listings
The two survivors are skilled craftsmen at this point in their careers; neither is especially original or groundbreaking here, but they both stick to their guns and continue doing what they've done so well for years, namely street-corner gangsta rap.
The result is another solid if unremarkable album courtesy of Eiht, not necessarily his best but definitely one of his best.
If you're familiar with Eiht's music -- whether his early-'90s work with CMW, his mid-'90s breakthrough albums for Epic Street, his late-'90s efforts for Priority, or his latter-day independent releases -- you'll know what to expect here: for 15 years the guy has rapped in his own trademark fashion, and Veterans Day is no exception.

 MC Eiht Review
In other words I can't come and listen to MC Eiht and expect him to sound like Rakim and then say his album is wack because he's not flowing the same way..
I think Eiht does a pretty decent job on this album...I understand that he's definitely trying to reach his audience and base of fans, but I wish he could've flipped some different messeges in his lyrics...
Personally, I think MC Eiht sounds best when he has beats that you picture singer Barry White getting loose with..My favorite cut to this date is Barry White inspired 'Hood Gone Took Me Under'..
