This Memphis junt caught my attention by the guest appearances, when I got this album I found out it was just Split Personality under a different name: Jay-Pee, Tran, and Smooth. The first cut is called “Shake That” and it features Innocence, Squeeky and Tom Skeemask...the beat is pretty weak and the concepts of the song is really weak as well, its a song bout shaking your ass and shit like that, the female Innocence has a desecent verse but Squeeky’s verse is pretty weak and I usually like his stuff. Comin up next is “Where They At?” is another dance club type of track, it sounds like a fake ass Cash Money song and shit, I really cant get into this at all....WHACK!!!!!!!!

“Where You From?” is coming up next with Indo G, Innocence and Al Kapone...this is a get buck type of song that would get the club crunk, its probably the best track on the album and it really aint nothing all that special either, just something you could bump from time to time. Indo G comes really hard as well as Kapone. “Lets Get It Crunk” is track 5 and it has some descent vocals but the beat is horrible, if the beat was half way good I might be able to bump this but overall this cut aint doin nothing for me. “Ned The Wine O” follows that and its a really solid track, it has a bumpin ass beat and the vocals are solid as fuck.

“I Wanna Get High” is coming up next and features SMK, GK and London Fog.....this is another really solid track, the vocals on this track are really tight compared to the other tracks on this junt.....I’m happy to see GK on this track, he is a very solid rapper that deservers a solo album, anyways this is a very tight lil track. “I Just Cant Concentrate” comes in at track 8 and this sounds like the old Split Personality stuff.....it has a really tight beat and some bomb ass vocals, I know everyone could bump out to this junt. “You Aint Better Than me” features SMK and London Fog.....this cut is bout peeps flossing in the hood in they caddy’s and shit and thinkin they better then you.....it has a nice lil concept behind the song and some descent vocals, its something you could listen to from time to time.

“The Great Escape” features that girl Innocence again....this track has a really solid beat and tight vocals, I really cant believe these are the same cats that made the first 3-4 cuts on this album that were soo whack cuz this is pretty bumpin. “MEMPHIS” is track 11 and mane this cut struck a good part with me.....I love songs with smooth ass R&B chorus’s which this one does, I really could chill out to this track and get my perve on, nice laid back beat and smooth vocals.

“That Girl” is a song bout relationships and stuff like that...I really aint even gonna comment on this garbage. “Shine On” is coming up next and its a very slow style cut, I really couldnt get into this track for the simple fact that it was just too damn slow. The last track is called “Grand Finale” and its a get buck type of track, I really aint feelin it at all, they just tryin a lil too hard to be buck on dis junt.

Overall this is a pretty straight album, if the start and end of it wasnt as weak as it was it would be a solid album but the start and end are just soo weak that it pulls it down. I wouldnt recommend buying this junt new, maybe pick it up if you can find it used somewhere. The beats are solid throughout the entire album so I dont think you will be disappointed there at all.
