"The harrowing details unfold over production that revives the California G-funk both artists grew up on, though the results are a little clichéd and at times uneven."
"Lefty had been locked up in California's notorious Pelican Bay supermax after stabbing an inmate at his former facility; it's where he'd finish nine years out of an original 13-year sentence."
"It's now or never, that in the wake of Lefty's surprise feature on Kendrick Lamar's platinum-selling "TV Off," he's now in a position to change the direction of his and his family's lives for good."
"Lefty's new full-length, Can't Get Right, a collaboration with executive producer, producer, and costar JasonMartin, is a first test of whether Kendrick's handpicked choices for next in the West are panning out."
In the album "Can't Get Right," Lefty Gunplay, aided by producer JasonMartin, channels his tumultuous past and the challenges he's faced post-incarceration. Following his controversial prison stay, Lefty sees this release as a pivotal moment, especially after his recent collaboration with Kendrick Lamar on "TV Off." The album mirrors his life story, featuring themes of violence, addiction, and longing, infused with a nostalgic West Coast G-funk sound. While it draws inspiration from classic gangsta rap, the execution sometimes feels clichéd and uneven, reflecting Lefty's struggle but also his determination to make a significant life change.
