Release Notes:

MC Eiht’s newest solo due soon, enjoy.

Aaron Tyler (born May 22, 1967 in Compton, California) is an American rapper
better known by his stage name MC Eiht. A pioneer of gangsta rap, he first
emerged as one of the lead rappers of Compton’s Most Wanted (C.M.W.), and later
became an actor and solo MC. He is best known in the acting world for his role
as “A-Wax” in The Hughes Brothers’ film Menace II Society, and for providing the
voice of Ryder in the video game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. C.M.W. is set
for a reunion which will feature on DJ Slip’s next album The Minority Report. 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. One of
his most famous songs would most likely be Streiht Up Menace from the motion
picture Menace II Society. This song is considered by many to be one of the
greatest rap songs of all time. He is best known for his catchphrase
“Geyyeahh”.

DJ Quik and MC Eiht constantly dissed each other while both had growing
popularity at the time. The feud was fueled when DJ Quik gave shout outs to
C.M.W. on an early mixtape, and MC Eiht interpreted it as a diss. Also 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 Piruanother gang from Compton).
The beef was ended when DJ Quik offered to make a song with Eiht, and end the
beef. There was also an incident where a man died in a scuffle between Eiht’s
people and Quik’s people. MC Eiht can be seen in the Wu-Tang Clan’s video for
“Can It All Be So Simple”.

In recent years, MC Eiht has become involved in a number of side projects when
he is not releasing solo albums – including two collaboration albums with Spice
1 (The Pioneers and Keep It Gangsta in 2004 and 2006, respectively), a record
with Brotha Lynch Hung (The New Season in 2006), and another Compton’s Most
Wanted album (Music To Gang Bang, also in 2006). 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.
