Everlast’s sophomore album as a solo artist, Eat At Whitey’s, was released in
2000
Following the success of 1998’s Whitey Ford Sings the Blue, Eat at Whitey’s finds him
beefing up his sound as well as bringing in big names, such as N’dea Davenport (who
adds her vocals on the sexy, R&B- flavored “Love for Real”), Goodie Mob’s Cee- Lo,
Cypress Hill’s B Real, and Carlos Santana, for whom Everlast penned the Grammywinning
“Put Your Lights On.” Everlast is still fixated on redemption and regret, but his
intensity and passion make up for the narrow focus, as, guitar in hand, he conjures up
a nocturnal, sultry world populated with saints, sinners, and homeboys.
