Summary: stoned and crazy: an album for all occasions
Comment: this album hasn't left my heavy rotation since i got it back in 97. it's an overall dope album that symbolizes an era that will never return - the era of good rap music. even then, the fissure between commercial and underground was prevalent, but the beatnuts music hearkens back to a time when good music was just good music. the lyrics are hardcore, but funny. the beats are psychadelic, but raw. and new talent, such as big pun and screwball are introduced. juju is as violent as ever and psycho les is as funny as ever. this is an overall great listen from beginning to end. also, tracks like intermission, finger smoke, be proud and horny horns - short instrumentals tracks - give the album a continuity unseen in albums today. you can actually listen to the album from beginning to end and see what the beatnuts are up to artistically and musically. some people might say that the lyrics are weak on this album but i disagree. for the music, juju's flow and psycho's wit are perfect. the music is never overshadowed and the lyrics are never bad. if you don't have this album, get it. your rap collection is not complete without it.

Summary: This Album Has Me Stone Crazy Every Listen
Comment: Stone Crazy has to be one of my favorite Beatnuts albums if I had to rate all of them. This album is full of underground classic and had a few tracks that got radio airplay. The songs that stand out on Stone Crazy for me were Bless The MIC, Here's A Drink, Off The Books, Do You Believe, N*ggaz Know, Find That (My favorite), Uncivilized and Thinkin' About Cash.
The guest appearance is all on point on this joint. I noticed every album The Nuts put out is full of guest appearances that keep their albums raw, hardcore and refreshing. The samples on Stone Crazy are very creative as well, I did some researched and Ju Ju and Psycho Les truly dig in some creates to get their polished sound. But I also love how these guys know how to have fun on the MIC, like on Give Me The Ass and Strokes. This is a solid effort and worth the cash.

Summary: SO GOOD I WAS STONE CRAZY
Comment: The beatnuts come back with their third album but this time they return as a duo, Psycho les and Ju ju again keep their already established sound (classic new york beats) and this time they bring guests to add to the proceedings, first up on the now classic of the books track the beatnuts join forces with Big Pun and Cuban Link who both lay some serious quotable verses over a classic beat which seems to come from a childrens program which has then been cut up and looped to great effect, This is one of my favourate tracks of all time in hip hop if not my favourate overall, it just shows you how much I think of it.
The rest of the album is pure magic also, Screwball also feature on a track bringing their queensbridge style which fits with the Corona duo. On the track Give me tha ass they take a well known song and put their own spin on it.
The beatnuts are in my opinion one of the most underated groups in the game right now, These latinos have proven their worth time and time again, if you have never heard the beatnuts before you owe it to yourself to do so and this album is a good place to start (It was my first beatnuts album)buy it.
