Yukmouth is back with his second solo album after the success of his first album "Thugged Out The Albulation" which made lots of noise when it came out. His new album features the likes of Mac Minister, Lil Mo, Outlawz, Kool G Rap, C-Bo, Kurupt, Nate Dogg, Kokane, Mad Max, Phats Capone Bissiliani, Tech N9ne, Poppa LQ, Governer Matic, & CJ Mac.

1. "Old Testament Intro" has Mac Minister spitting some knowledge with a nice judgemental type piano beat in the background.

2. "Thug Lord" has a real up tempo type beat with a nice mobby baseline. Yukmouth rips this shit up from front to back he lets it be known he is back for the 2k1 very tight shit right here.

3. "Oh Boy" has a orchestral raise up type feel beat to it very tight beat I was really feeling it. Yukmouth rips this track up as well every verse is tight and the hook is tight as well nice catchy hook. Another bumping ass track.

4. "Clap Yo Hands" has a lully a bye type beat with a nice mobby ass baseline. The hook is some lully a bye type shit but the flows on this track are heat even though the hook is not so great. I was also feeling feeling this track.

5. "Hi Maintenance" has a nice laid back type beat type of a sensual pimp feel going on to it. This track features Lil Mo who was on such tracks as Superwoman and them Ja Rule cuts. She comes real tight I was feeling her but Yukmouth busts in with some very tight fuck a bitch lyrics very tight shit right here.

6. "Puffin Lah" has a real basic beat sounds like some shit from Jamaica or the Carribean. Yukmouth spits the tight smoke shit on this track this is a definite track to spark a blunt up to and just chill good shit by him once again.

7. "We Gon Ride" has a tight ass beat some real ride on em tight shit has sort of a orchestral type feel to it. This track features the Outlaw and they straight talking shit and rip that shit everyone of them fools is tight good shit by them. Yukmouth rips this shit up too another bumping ass track....

8. "Thug Money" has sort of an old style mob beat mixed in with somewhat of a mainstream feel going on to it. This track features the legendary Kool G Rap and he rips this shit up good to hear him again he was one of the greats. Yukmouth rips it on every verse he spits very good shit by him and also a tight hook on this track.

9. "Do It Right" has a nice futuristic up tempo beat a real raise up type feel on this beat. This track features west coast vet C-Bo and he rips this track up always to hear him and Yukmouth on a track together. The hook on this track is different sort of style but I liked it another very tight track right here.

10. "World’s Most Hated" has a tight ass beat sounds like its sampled from some day time soap opera. Yukmouth does not stop he spits some real tight shit on this track and lets it be known who he is. The hook on this track is nice and so are the flows very tight ass track overall.

11. "So Ignorant" has a nice tight beat going on to it real laid back feel to it sounds like something you hear at a party and just chill to. This track features Kurupt, Nate Dogg, & Kokane. Nate handles his biz on the vocals as usual and Kurupt and Kokane come with nice flows and Yukmouth comes nice as well another pretty good track overall.

12. "Ohh! Ohh!" this track has a basic beat sounds like some shit that you hear at a club. Yukmouth comes pretty good on the flows on this track and the hook is a real catchy one you either like it or you don’t its not a bad hook but decent track overall.

13. "Regime Killers 2001" this beat is real tight this is the kind of beat that just stands out its soem let it be known type shit. This track features Mad Max, Phats Capone Bossillini, Tech N9ne, Poopa LQ & Governer Matic. They all come very fucking tight on this track its just perfect. Yukmouth ends this song and ohhhhhh weeeeeeee does he do it the verse is long as hell and he does nothing but straight clown down on fools this track is fucking you cant sleep on this shit.

14. "Smile" very laid back beat on this one some good shit to kick back and ride to sounds like some sunny day type shit. This track features C-Bo once again and he starts this song out and rips a nice verse as he usually does. Yukmouth comes very nice as well has a nice hook on it as well some good kick back shit.

15. "New Testament" has a real basic beat with some piano up in it and Yukmouth ends this album out spitting nothing but some real good shit like he has the rest of the album. Good way to end it out with him spitting the real shit.

In end this album has some great production and Yukmouth spits some of his best work yet. This album should have your head nodding all the way through because its bumping from front to back. Yukmouth seems to spitting a lot of heat off his chest on this album and just lets it be known. I would go scoop this album up immediately because its probably one of the best albums of 2001. I also cant wait for the new Luniz album but while you waiting for that go get this shit don’t sleep..
