This is Lil Slim's first release on Cash Money, this dropped back in 1994 and has a very strong New Orleans bounce feel to it...Mannie Fresh produced it so you know the beats are tight. "Eagle St. Bounce" is the first cut and its a tight lil bounce track that you can mob down the street bumpin....the bounce style is an acquire taste in music, you might not like it the first time you peep it but the more you listen to it the tighter it sounds. "Tha Lil One" comes up next and it has a nice beat to it and some decent vocals....its nothing off the hook but its a straight ass track.

"Ho's I Used 2 Sweat II" features B-32....this song they just talkin bout all these hoes they used to fuck and shit, very old school beat to it, I really never got into this song all that much, it aint bad but nothing great. "True To Tha Games" is my favorite track on this junt, it has a blazin beat and some tight vocals by Lil Slim, he kickin that classic New Orleans style gangsta shit. Track 5 is "Powder Shop" and its a pretty weak song, I cant get into this at all, the beat is just too damn simple and the vocals arent anything impressive.

The last song on this Ep is called "Blunt After Blunt" and it features PxMxWx Pimp Daddy, this is a really solid track with a nice ass beat, the vocals are tight as well. Overall this is a nice lil bounce album from New Orleans....I suggest this album to people that like old school music, if you dont like old school shit you will not like this album cuz its straight old school bounce shit, if you dont have a problem wit old shit this is a nice album for the collection.
