    Everlast a/k/a Whitey Ford a former member of the Irish rap group House of pain. I really think Everlast is very succesful in his mixing of music styles... This record is one of my own favorits and I think it's just great... But I think he could haved used Cee-Lo as something more than just a backup singer on "One, Two"... This is a musical experiment and if you like new alternative Everlast a/k/a Whitey Ford a former member of the Irish rap group House of pain.

    Everlast has always put out all he had on every album ever. He throws in oldschool and kickass blues riffs and is inspiration to me.

    This is my favorite album(with his first one). I love how his voice, musical sound, featured back-ups, and blend of styles tell his ideas and stories so well. Everlast rules! Keep up the good work.

    Bravado and roleplay being the essence of rock, problems only arise when the real Everlast, a Grammy-winning crossover artiste, rears his head. [Nov. 2000, p.116]
  2. An inventively arranged mixture of blues, hip-hop, strings, folk and metal, 'Eat At Whitey's' is like Fun Lovin' Criminals' cameo in The Sopranos: by turns, flash, atmospheric, melancholic, and very masculine.
  3. With deeply average tunes and deeply average rapping throughout, not even an appearance by Carlos Santana on Babylon Feeling can turn things around.
