When you think about it, House of Pain really were ahead of their time. Tracks like "Jump Around" may have been light on the content side, but they delivered in the production department--they played with sounds in the same way that Missy Elliott and Timbaland have popularized, and they crossed over to a rock audience long before Puffy ever tried it. On Whitey Ford Sings the Blues, Everlast's second solo album, the opening is an appropriation of "The Fat Boys are Back"; a couple of songs favor a sensitive folk-rock touch, with Everlast on guitar; and others reach back for House of Pain's best rock-influenced sounds. Though plenty of others have rhymed over rock and folk tracks, Everlast has a good feel for it and his songs are solid. If this isn't a career album, it's damn close. --Randy Silver

The Source
Whitey Ford Sings The Blues is a collection of rap meets rock tunes that are sure to appeal only to open-minded rap fans. read more

URB
Though Everlast's rhymes occasionally edge towards pedantry... Whitey Ford throws seemingly errant knuckleballs that miraculously, and somewhat arbitrarily, find the strike zone. read more

I love this entire CD!!
I heard Everlast for the first time a couple of months ago.The song "What it's Like," the song really got to me. I've been though alot of the stuff that the song talks bout. I think he's the greatest artist and I'll be a faithful fan 4-ever. I love the whole CD!!!!!!!! read more

I poured heart and soul into this album and it shows...
This album is all about my roots... my heritage. The blues were a major influence on my work, and I am happy that I was able to display my love for the music, and share it with everyone. I hope you enjoy the album, Thanks. read more

Whitey Ford sings the Blues
Man, this stuff is great. I've heard all the stuff Everlast did with House of Pain, but this is far the best. God bless this man for doing such things, when there is so much bull**** on Tv and radio. read more

5 out of 5 stars Music with a soul
Reviewer: kybluebird  1_stripes from Benton, Kentucky      December 27, 1999
I purchased this cd based on "You Might Know What its Like". I was beyond impressed with the rest of the tracks. I cannot believe that this is the same artist who did "Jump Around". Everlast shows that you can have an attitude and a social conscience. Also, he has the most fantastic voice I have heard in a long time. I listen to the cd just to hear him. Do yourself a favor BUY IT!

Reviewer: Chris L  1_stripes from Allen Park, Michigan      December 23, 1999
This CD is excellent. Rap meets Rock in this CD. Everlast is an excellent singer. This CD is almost like rap meeting rock in aerosmith's/run D.M.C. version of walk this way. Very good CD

4 out of 5 stars Excellent
Reviewer: Orion Powell (bob_dylan@aol.com) from Moscow, Russia      October 8, 1999
This is one of the greatest rap albums ever. Everlast created his own little genre with Whitey Ford Sings the Blues. This album puts any of those other guys trying to put rap and rock together (Limp Bizkit, Kid Rock, etc.) look like amateur hour, which they are.
