This Boogie goes from good to great near the end when the GANGSTA chant comes in. Wale says it “crank like a motherfucker” and he’s right. What he should’ve done was interpolate it, at least the main parts of it, into the other chorus sections. As is, the song, which celebrates the Cali “gangsta” lifestyle with Kurupt and Daz, is a would-be classic.
