1. A decent beat from Gemini to start the album off with. He pours his heart out on this track. He talks about some hardships in life and how hard his life has been. Not really feeling the beat too much, but it's hard to ignore the lyrics. A very deep track to start it off.
2. A tight ass beat by Yun-Gun for this track. Yukmouth starts it off with a tight ass flow. Gemini has the second verse and spits some clean lyrics on the mic. Yun-Gun has the third verse and spits some coo lyrics. Young Droop has the fourth verse and rips up the mic with his fast paced lyrics. Smuggla has the last verse, but I'm not feeling his verse at all. A tight ass track minus Smuggla's verse, bump it loud.
3. A clean ass beat from Yun-Gun. I'm really starting to feel his production skills. Mr. Kee starts it off with a coo verse. Gemini has the next verse and spits some coo lyrics. He talks about just bringing the heat on the mic and not fucking with any bullshit. Dutch has a short verse to finish off the track. A pretty good track overall, I liked Gemini and Mr. Kee more than Dutch.
4. A clean beat from Yung Sinn that fits perfectly with Gemini's style. Gemini starts it off with a coo verse. Yung Sinn is on the hook, but that's it. Gemini flows about those who talk about one thing, but do another. A coo track overall, I'm feeling it.
5. Gemini and B-Dog handle the production for this track, but I'm not really feeling it too much. I like Gemini more behind the mic then on the production. Gemini has some really good lyrics on the mic. He talks about the justice department in California and how fucked up it is. I'm not really feeling Hyst Gree-D or Key Locc too much. A decent track production wise, but I like Gemini's verse a lot.
6. A tight ass beat from Yung Sinn. I'm feeling all three on this track. Gemini, Yung Sinn, and Neves come tight on the mic. Only bad part is that it's a short track. Wish each would have had two verses. Still a tight ass track.
7. A pretty good beat from B-Dog. I like Squab on this track, but I'm not feeling Key Locc at all. Gemini spits some coo lyrics and has a good verse. I really like Squab a lot though, wouldn't mind hearing more from him. A tight track overall.
8. Another tight ass beat from Yun-Gun. Kaoz starts it off with a hard verse. Gemini has the second verse and spits some coo lyrics. They put it down for the 831 and 415 on this track. Spank Loc spits some coo lyrics of his own. A tight ass track from start to finish, I'm feeling it to the fullest. Some hard ass shit right here.
9. A fucking hard ass beat from Yun-Gun. This is a coo track for Gemini to shine on. He spits some coo lyrics on the mic and his flow fits well with the production. Another good lyrical track overall, I'm feeling it.
10. A decent beat from Yung Sinn. 7 Lady Outlaw is terrible. She needs to get the hell out of this track. Yun-Gun has the second verse, but I'm not feeling his verse either. Gemini spits some coo flows, but even his verse doesn't seem that tight to me. E.O.T. has a coo verse. Not feeling Birdman at all and I don't think either Yung Sinn or Neves come that tight. Just a poor track overall.
11. A tight ass beat frm B-Dog that gets your head moving. This is more of party type track than the other tracks on this album. I'm not sure if this first verse is B-Dog or Bigfoot, but I'm feeling it a lot. Gemini has the second verse, but I'm not feeling his type of style on a track like this. Yun-Gun has a coo verse next, but again his style doesn't really fit this type of track. Still a coo track overall, a knoccin one for sure.
12. A clean beat from Yun-Gun. Gemini needs to stick with Yun-Gun's production to flow over cause he fits better with that kind of production to spit to. More heart felt lyrics by Gemini. Doom is on the hook and spits some coo lyrics. Another good lyrical track from Gemini.
13. Just a hard ass track right here. Droop rips up the mic to start it off. Yun-Gun laces up a tight ass beat to flow to. I didn't really like Gemini's verse when I first verse, but it's grown on me. NightTrain comes with a clean verse of his own. Just a tight ass track from start to finish, bump it loud!
14. A slower paced track. Doom laces up the production and gives a good feel. I don't like Gemini's flow on the hook, but I do like his verses. Another track with heart felt lyrics from Gemini. A nice slow paced track, I'm feeling the lyrics.
15. Another slower paced track. Yun-Gun lays down a coo verse for Gemini to flow to. He talks about his dad and how much he misses him. The production sets a sad mood and Gemini lays down some sorrowful lyrics. A very good track, a lot of heart on this one.
16. Gemini and B-Dog lay down a coo beat to flow to. Young Blaze starts it off with a decent verse. Squab spits a tight ass verse. I really want to hear an album from him now. Gemini has the third verse and comes clean on the mic. I don't like Doe Doe at all, he's just a kid and I'm not feeling his flow at all. A tight ass track though, I'm feeling it.
17. A very long track with a lot of people and verses. The hook is pretty good though and I like the production by Doom. The majority of the track has good flows on it. A nice to bump that features a lot of artists.
18. Doom lays down a slow beat. Gemini flows about his mother and how she survived brain surgery. More of the heart felts lyrics that I'm feeling from Gemini. A very good track to finish the album with.
Overall this was a very solid album lyrically and featured some very good production. I think that it needed to be cut down to about 16 or 15 tracks, but even with the extra tracks I thought it was a solid album. Gemini shows he can spit some very good lyrics on a slow paced track and a hardcore track. He needed to cut down on a few of the features, but for the most part I was feeling the guest artists. A coo album people should check out from this 831 artist.
