With “One Mo Nigga Ta Go,” Yella honors the memory of Eazy-E while showcasing his talents as a solo artist. The album captures the raw energy and emotion of 90s hip-hop, making it a must-listen for fans of the genre.

In 2016, Yella was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of N.W.A.
