Shortly after this, Kool G Rap appeared on the Juice Crew's classic posse cut "The Symphony" before they released their debut album, Road to the Riches in 1989 Eventually, in 1993, Kool G Rap parted ways with DJ Polo to pursue a solo career. He then planned to release his next album, The Giancana Story, on Rawkus Records in 2000. Due to several complications with the record label, the album release date was pushed back several times, and the album was eventually released in 2002. My Life", the single from the album, featuring Talk Box legend G-Wise, reached No. 6 on the US Billboard Hot 100 Rap singles charts.

Complete your Kool G Rap collection. On The Juice Crew alumni's only LP under the legendary Rawkus label, G came with bars that did not disappoint, but with a bevy of guest features (most notably Joell Ortiz, NORE, Prodigy, and The Firm), G was overshadowed on his own LP that does not provide enough from his own voice to get a repeat play.

The Giancana Story is the third solo album by Mafioso rap artist Kool G Rap. It was released on November 26, 2002. A leading member of Marley Marl's Juice Crew that forever more holds a preeminent place in the history of hip hop, continues to etch his name in the minds of hip hop fans world wide. With the witty, storyline stacked, thrilling release "The Giancana Story" Kool G Rap serves up nothing less than fan dazzling entertainment. Bone chilling details, and haunting street life scenarios are effortlessly illustrated by Kool G Rap's dynamic lyrics.

Kool G Rap is very angry, boys and girls, his delivery never fails to break its percussive, bruising thud on to each track. If amorphous rage is your bag, there is much to enjoy throughout The Giancana Story. Is this satire? Every once in awhile, it got bad enough for me to ask this, but even satire requires a moment where you're let in on the joke, if only to catch your breath. Drama (Bitch Nigga)" breezes through a day in the life of Kool G which he succinctly summarizes as "guns, ho's, drugs and ice. Even if I could get over my disdain for the heavily dated pimp roll of The Giancana Story, there is nothing underneath to make enduring these thug platitudes worth my time.

The Giancana Story is the 6th full length project by Kool G Rap (including Polo albums), released in 2002. When I first heard this LP some months back I thought it’d be strange to hear Kool G Rap in a modern setting in hip hop but god damn, Giancana pulled it off. This album has some really beautiful moments. In a morbid sort of way, it is a mafioso project, yet again. I can’t say I disliked one instrumental on this album neither. The tone does seem like G Rap was going for a more commercial sound but hey, it works

HipHopDX's Afrikka also scored the album as four out of five and said "Kool G Rap once again proves he is an incredible storyteller and rhymesayer. With the Giancanna Story you have an album every serious fan should not be without. The farthest thing from a disappointment, there is no filler material, no water-me-down interludes, just pure music
