Hollywood (Flavor Flav album)
Hollywood is the self-titled debut solo album by hip-hop artist Flavor Flav, his only solo release. The album was in production for at least seven years with the oldest track being "Hot 1," first released as a single in 1999. The only guest appearance is from Smooth B of Nice & Smooth. Ol' Dirty Bastard, The Beatnuts and Ce Ce Peniston had been slated to appear on the album, but did not make the cut. This album is sometimes mistakenly referred to as Hollywood due to the image of the sign on the front of the album but it is self-titled.
