This is OCF's first national release, this dropped back in 1996....They are outta Mississippi and have a lil Memphis style to them with more of a pimpin sound to em. The first cut is called "The Players Stroll" and it has a very laid back beat and they are just kickin some pimpin type of vocals, its a song you could kick back and chill to, its nothing off the hook and nothing that is too whack either. "Dirty Ho" is up next and its a song exactly bout what the title says, they are kickin some fast vocals on this track, but I dont like the way they deliver it on the mic, I really cant see anyone bumpin this track out.

"My Neighborhood Is A War Zone" is a really tight song, they got a newer version of this song on their new album, but anyways the beat on this track is really tight and da vocals they drop on this are really solid. "Come Smoke A Blunt With Me" is a really nice laid back smoking track, the beat on this track is off the hook and the vocals are really tight as well, its some ole pimp ass smoking shit that you would expect to hear from an album this old. "Down With The Nine" is track 7 and its tight as fuck, the beat is tight as fuck and the vocals are really dope, they are kickin some straight gangsta shit on this track.

"Now You Gotta Die" starts off with the verse from the dope ass track "Terrior"...it dont sound nearly as tight on as the one on their newer album but its still a straight lil track. "One In The Chamber" is a really dope track, Big Ced starts the track off from the jump, he sounds just like Eightball, its a straight gangstafied ass track that can have you mobbin down the block bumpin this junt. Coming up next is a laid back track called "Smilin Faces", I really aint feelin this track all that much, Tha Cellmates are on this track, its nothing I could see myself bumpin ever again after this.

"Smoke To This" is a smoke type of track that damn near every album has....this one is decent, its nothing off the hook and nothing super whack. "Dont Want No Big Pussy Woman" is a straight comedy track, when you hear the chorus which is what the title is you will start laughing your ass off, the verses are just straight comedy also, you can probably listen to this track once and then never again. Track 13 is called "Gangsta Story" and its a laid back cut with a bangin beat, the vocals are really solid on this track as well.

"The Players Stroll II" is next up....its alot better then the previous version on this album, the beat is really tight and so are the vocals...I think all yall will like this. "Aint No Party" sounds like a song from the late 70's or something, the beat is very old school, its basically like a DJ Club type of song, its nothing I could ever listen to. Skinny Pimp sends some shout outs on the Outro, I think its kinda faulty of them to say he is featured on this album when he just talks on the outro.

Overall this album is alot better then their newer one but it still aint all that...It does have some bumpin ass tracks but alot of bullshit tracks as well, if you can find it for the low-low I suggest you pick it up.
