What people are saying about 40 Watt Hype

"Who else is playing this type of music in the valley? Neo hip-hop is the style and all I can say is this is a true crossroads for music in the San Joaquin: white meets black meets Chicano meets 'unity' in a multi-cultural band with rural-urban street talk, songwriting, and production that would make Ricky Ricardo turn in his grave and wish his big Cuban Buena Vista social hour was hip to this scene."
