Album Rate: 5 out of 5 Stars
This is one of the best releases ever to come out the south, this was Thre 6 Mafia’s first nationwide release but it had a very strong strong underground feel to it, the lyrics, the beats and everything about this album was off the hook. It starts off with “Da Beginning” which is a dope ass intro where they just talk and shit. “Break Da Law 95” is next up and it’s a remix of a cut they had on their underground tape, it’s a very hype get buck type of song, it stands out from the other tracks on the album because it is a get buck sounding cut, but anyways its off the hook, DJ Paul starts this shit off hella tight, but his second verse on this track might be one of my favorite ones cuz he rips shit.
“Da Summa” is next up and its flat out amazing, this song is a classic, very nice and chilled cut, DJ Paul starts this shit off dropping a really tight verse, the chorus on this track is just flat out tight as fuck, Koopsta comes in next with a dope ass verse with his singing/rapping, next up Lord Infamous drops a tight ass verse with his original style sounding voice, not that fake ass shit he does today.
