SlaughtaHouse was the second release from Masta Ace, only this time around he recorded with his crew Masta Ace Incorporated, consisting of Ace, Lord Digga, Paula Perry, Eyceurokk and Leschea.
This set includes a good mix of funk and jazz as SlaughtaHouse was notable for infusing West Coast funk-influenced beats with rough New York rhyming. For those wondering where the samples for the hidden track “Born To Roll” are, they’ll be included in the Sittin’ on Chrome set. Only track missing from this set is Earth, Wind & Fire’s ”Handwriting on the Wall”. I have every single Earth, Wind & Fire album and this track is not on any of them. If anyone knows where I can find it, leave a comment.

Big ups for this K. Ace is a legend!!
handwriting on the wall is supposed to be the b-side of the 7″ system of survival
Did I say tomorrow? Yeah, it was done, so I figured I’d just put it up now. Thanks for the info for the EWF track.
GOOD LOOKIN’ KEV! This is great!
You didn’t include the samples for “Born To Roll”?
“Born To Roll” was a hidden track and also released on his next album Sittin on Chrome. I didn’t see the sense in putting those samples in both sets.
Jeep Ass Niguh was my joint from back then…good looks on the compilation…peace
Good one Kev!
Vote for Kevin for the online awards. 1.5 days left to vote.
Galt MacDermot is a sample legend!
Sick!!!! But yo kev…what i’d like to see is a producer highlight on Dilla – with some serious Dilla samples!!!! Would make a top Xmas present!!!
If you’re good, then maybe Santa will deliver…
