Hvid rap er noget af en blandet landhandel. Fra Vanilla Ice's hedengangne hitliste-hip hop over sumperne i Cypress Hill til verdensstjernen Eminem. I Amerika har de fleste hvide rappere - på nær sidstnævnte Eminem - stået i skyggen af deres sorte brødre eller gået andre veje, blandt andet hos det alternative label Anticon. La Coka Nostra er en hvidt hardcore-kollektiv, der består af medlemmer fra House of Pain og Non Phixion. Tonen er vred, rytmerne er benhårde og La Coka Nostra rapper nådesløst om vold, kriminalitet og barndommens svigt. Som det lyder på "The story goes on": <i>"His father died young/Never knew him to shield him from the rain/Started shooting heroin at fourteen to numb the pain/Track marks similar to tattoos tell the story of a sad fool"</i>. Hardcore homies med hang til Eminem vil kunne lide denne her, men fans af Limp Bizkit kan også være med.

"Over the course of 51 minutes, redundancy unfortunately sinks into the ethos. But that's the risk with any sonically specific endeavor. Those engulfed in the mood will undoubtedly float in the gravity of the moon. For the rest, it's hit and miss".

""A trusted brand" is a fitting description for La Coka Nostra. When it concerns Ill Bill, Slaine, Danny Boy and DJ Lethal, nobody is expecting radio-friendly hit records, you know what you're gonna get and what you're gonna get is raw tracks. On the previous album those were interspersed with some additional blues sounds, thanks to former group member Everlast, but this time around everything is simply filled to the brim with bombastic boombap".
