This is ESG's follow up album to the very successful Ocean of Funk. As I understand it, this album has a few cuts from that album on this one. It starts off with a tight ass intro, the beat is banging and ESG drops some tight ass lyrics---very crunk littl intro. After that is "187 Skillz" which is a very chilled cut, I really like this song, the beat is dat on dat and the lyrics are really cold. Next up is "Crooked Streets" and this song is another pretty nice song, its a slower type of song but its still nice.

"RIP" is track 4 and I aint really feelin this cut at all--way to slow for me. It is followed by a crunk ass track "Swangin And Bangin" which is basically a Texas rap anthem. It has been screwed by countless numbers of screw companies. Its a very tight song. "Let Em Know" is up after that and its alright at the best--I aint really feelin the chorus on this but ESG drops some aight lyrics but its still kinda slow. Up after that is "Beauty And The Beast" which aint nothing special, you can at least listen to it but its nothing that you will be bumpin over and over.

"G-Ride" is up next and its a so-so song, nothing special nothing that whack though. "Baller Of The Year" trails this song and this song is tight as fuck, the beat is very nice and ESG gets off on this track---you can mob to this cut, very laid back beat. Coming up next is "For All The G's" which is basically a dedication to all the G's, the beat is pretty tight and he drops some nice lil lyrics on this track. A screwed version of "Swanging And Banging" is next and its tight as fuck.

"Smoke On" is a slower smoking type of song, its pretty tight and it features some female-I really dont know who it is. The last track is crunk as fuck "Murder Outro"---mane ESG rips shit up on this one and the beat is hella tight. Overall this album is pretty good, it has alot of slow type of songs though, but the songs that are tight are very crunk. It would be nice if you could pick this shit up sometime.
