After launching the series in March of 2012 with
The Block Brochure: Welcome to the Soil, Pts. 1-3
,
E-40
continues to blow up his discography with
The Block Brochure: Welcome to the Soil, Pts. 4-6
, available in a three-album box set or three individual parts. Hardcore fans should just go for the full set since none of these parts towers over the others, although
Pt. 6
is the weakest of the three by a bit, featuring highlights with
B-Legit
("Mob Sh*t"),
Rick Ross
and
French Montana
("Champagne"),
Gucci Mane
Trinidad James
("Pablo"), plus the great solo
cut "Rep Yo District," which overflows with both hooks and hometown pride. The rest of the disc comes off as fun yet forgettable filler. ~ David Jeffies
