The Geto Boys (album)
''The Geto Boys'' is a remix album by the Geto Boys released in 1990. The album contains one track from the group’s debut album ''Making Trouble'' (1988), 10 from its previous album ''Grip It! On That Other Level'' (1989), and two new songs. All tracks on the album were rerecorded, remixed and revamped by acclaimed producer Rick Rubin with his protégé Brendan O'Brien. The cover of the album resembles The Beatles' album ''Let It Be'', and the songs attracted much controversy upon the album’s release.
==Controversy and release==
The original Def American pressing is the only WEA-distributed album with the following warning in addition to the standard explicit-lyrics sticker:
Due to the controversial nature of the lyrics, especially in the songs "Mind of a Lunatic" and "Assassins", the album's originally intended distributor, Geffen Records, and CD manufacturer Sony DADC, which manufactured Geffen's releases, refused to have any part in the release.〔Pareles. John. (Distributor Withdraws Rap Album Over Lyrics ). New York Times. 28 August 1990. Retrieved 17 June 2011〕 After Geffen terminated its manufacturing and distributing deal with Def American, Rick Rubin arranged alternative distribution with Warner Bros. Records, which agreed to distribute the album and all subsequent Def American releases with product manufacturing by WEA Manufacturing.〔Hochman, Steve. (Geffen Cancels Distribution Pact With Controversial Def American ). Los Angeles Times. 18 September 1990. Retrieved 17 June 2011〕 Marketing for the album was handled by Warner Bros. sister label Giant Records.
Subsequent pressings on Rap-a-Lot and various distributors do not contain the secondary warning. The version of "Gangsta of Love" contained on this album uses a sample from Lynyrd Skynyrd’s "Sweet Home Alabama" instead of Steve Miller Band’s "The Joker"; the version included on the original pressing of their 1989 album "Grip It! On That Other Level" had contained the Miller Band sample. "Do It Like a G.O." was released as a single with a music video but did not chart.
