When Death Row was on the decline, and Bad Boy was on the verge of taking over music, all was not lost on the Left Coast. Bow Down, the debut album from west coast supergroup Westside Connection, gave listeners a much needed alternative to the pop-friendly sounds of Puff Daddy and the family. It was the best Cube had sounded since The Predator, and Mack 10 and W.C., of course, delivered with their standard West Coast swagger and attitudes. Regardless of how the beef started, Westside Connection got Cypress Hill good with "King of the Hill." The music is obviously banging, but the "World Domination" introduction and "The Pledge" interlude sum up the whole mentality of the album perfectly. "Bitch, you know the side. World motherfucking wide!"
