I have never heard of TREAL at all never heard any guest shit or anything from them so I didn't know what to expect. All I know they are from Memphis and that this CD must be some real local shit. They are produced by some guy named BO $. This album features Peanut, TANK, Drill, Tiny, Taterhead, Drummaboy, Killa Mane, Brain, Moo Moo, and Pooh.

1. “Intro” Just some talking and they are chanting Chapel Hill in the background. (2:15)

2. “Welcome To The Land” is some real get buck push em off get buck type shit it has some guitar and some piano in this beat and all of em come real nice with the raps on this one. Like I said this track makes u wanna start throwing chairs and shit. (4:18)

3. “U Aint Crunk” has a tight ass beat and it samples Triggerman like a lot of southern artists do. This track is some more up tempo shit and once again some good crunk shit just like the title says it has tight beat change when the hook comes in and they all come tight another good track. (5:34)

4. “Dirtyz” is a more mid tempo track with some piano and some horns and shit in the background. After getting u buck on the first two tracks they slow it down on this one basically a track about bitches and some pimp shit. (4:14)

5. “Wicked World” starts off with some devilish laughing and ahs a slower beat more of an evil type twist to this track some shit from the depths of hell. Im liking this track as well good shit on this one more evil type shit but tight for sure. (6:32)

6. “My Life(Tribute To Big Dog)” Aight this track has a real slow my homie died type beat. They dedicate this song to their homie Big Dog who is shown on the backcover. They got some girl named Carmen Robinson singing the hook on this one. Good track to bump if you have homies that are dead and gone. (7:08)

7. “24 Hr” Starts off with someone making a phone call saying hey only have 24 hours to live. Beat has some tight sampled piano in it as well as some tight orchestra type shit in the background. They all come tight on this track as well another tight track to bob your head to. (5:44)

8. “Talking While You’re Walking” manne this shit starts off with some deep dark piano then all of sudden it just gets buck. This once again is some get buck and wild type shit, another tight track that I was feeling. (4:35)

9. “Bounce It Up” starts off with some tight piano that sounds like its sampled from something ive heard before. This track is more mid tempo type feel and more of a single type track a good track for the club. (5:00)

10. “Interlude (Makin That Money)” basically has them kind of acting like fools, singing about smoking and talking about bitches, like I said sounds like they was high and just fucking around. (3:20)

11. “City Of Memphis” has a real slow beat with some slow ass piano in it. This track was one of the okay tracks of the album nothing too special on this one had me skipping to the nest one a little too slow for my blood. (4:27)

12. “Sleep Walker” has a tight evil type beat with some what sounds like some Chinese type shit in the background but for sure tight. This track is tight I was feeling it had a tight hook with some tight raps a track worth checking. (4:09)

13. “Down & Out” Starts off with some slow piano and then just gets faster and faster. Has an aight hook and the raps are nice on this one, this track is another one of those aight type tracks. (4:14)

14. “On The Grind” Another slower type track with some piano in it, basically a song talking bout being on the grind and trying to make it big and shit pretty nice track but I think it could have been better. (5:24

15. “Off Da Wang” has another get buck up tempo beat and once again makes you want to get buck as they did on a few other tracks on this album. This is basically a chanting track but makes you get buck a good track to end the album out on good shit for sure. (5:43)

This album shocked me for sure, I didn’t expect much cause like I said this shit looked real local but the production on this album is real nice and everyone on the company has some real talent, I have a feeling in the near future we may hear the name TREAL a little more if they keep dropping shit like this. This album has mostly get buck throw a chair hit a muthafucka type shit so if u like that shit you have to get this shit for sure. Welcome To The Land!!!!!!!!
