I know that alot of people probably havent heard of these kats but they are tight as fuck. This album was basically produced by Grim Reapers from Short Stop records which Lil Troy releases albums on. The beats thoroughout this album are on point. This group is made up of 2 niggas: Gangsta Slim and G-Down, both of them are tight as fuck. The first track is the intro but they rap on it, mane they drop some tight ass shit on this, the beat is banging and the lyrics are on point. After that is "Down South" which is another tight ass cut, these niggas dont rap to fast-they have a strong Texas feel to them but are very good on the mic......The beat on this track is bangin and the chorus is tight as fuck.

"Trouble Makin" is one of the worst cuts on the album, its alright but aint nothing that special. This track is followed by maybe the best track on the album "Married To The Game"--this track has some female singing the chorus and mane she can sing her ass off and Gangsta Slim and G-Down drops some bomb ass lyrics to this laid back beat-----very tight song. "Welcome To Hell" was produced by Icy Hott of Street Military and features Kidnappa---this song is crunk is fuck, it has a strong Street Military feel to it, you can tell its Icy Hott making the beat cuz this beat sticks out from the others, its very uptempo compared to the others. G-Down and Gangsta Slim drop the first few verses then that nigga KB comes in and tears shit up and flows his ass off.

"Confess" is up next and its a slower type of song about confessing to all the bad shit they have down thoroughout years. "Heart Of a G" is after that and its tight as fuck, these niggas speed it up a little bit and tear shit up--very nice song. "Niggas Trippin" is track 9 and mane this shit is cold as fuck--these niggas amaze me with this song--some of the best shit I have ever heard from Texas-lyrically wise. "Dying To Survive" didnt let me down either, this shit is tight as fuck G-Down drops great vocals and the beat is super tight---the chorus is really nice also-----great song.

"Criminal Stylez" is another tight track, the beat is really bangin and G-Down and Gangsta Slim drop amazing lyrics again--they never sieze to amaze me. The last track is the outro but they flow on it, very nice lil laid back track---I bump this shit all the time. Overall this is a fuckin classic album---I dont know anyone that has it besides me but it dont look underground and the production is great. I cant believe these niggas aint got another album out. Go try to find this shit today, I gurantee you will like it!!!
