Even without the use of samples, Ant Banks has created an inventive form of West Coast hip-hop. Playing keyboards and drums on every track and lending his vocal stylings here and there, Ant Banks compliments the rest of T.W.D.Y (Captain Save'm ... Full Descriptionand Dolla Will) through 19 impressive tracks. Armed with a stock pile of West Coast guest MCs (Too $hort, Ice-T, MC Eiht, E-40, and WC to name a few), T.W.D.Y. runs the gamut of topics including racial profiling ("Blue Suits & Badges"), controlling women ("Boss Bitches"), living in squalor ("In the Ghetto," which samples "The Ghetto" by Rick James), and drug use ("X-Files"). While T.W.D.Y. isn't exactly a radical departure from pre-existing West Coast rap, it's a fine addition to the genre.
