As I've said before, I think Hell Rell & 40 Cal. are the best out of the Dip Set Camp (JR Writer is a notch below, and Jim Jones & Juelz have some tight songs but also make some garbage ones and Cam'ron is just garbage all together) and Hell Rell keeps going strong with this one. With 12 songs, 1 is almost a classic, 1 is ok, the other 10 are good or real good sogns. Guests are minimal, on 2 songs, only rapping on 1 and doing the hook on 1. As usual he has mostly street/hustling focused lyrics with a more positive one here and there and always one or 2 for the ladies. Production is decent as well. A Raab does 4 songs, Kajmir Royale does 3, Hassiditty does 2 (1 with Hell Rell), MGI does 2 (1 with Goodwill) and Manti does 1. Still think his bestalbum is "For The Hell Of It" but this, "Streets Wanna Know" and "Hard As Hell" are all strong, solid 4 star albums, and I'll continue to check out more of his work. A nice album to have for his fans or fans of street rap.

Rell comes back with Black Mask Black Gloves and it was very good. I been following Rell's music since 03 and he a rising star. If you don't like gangsta music or hardcore lyrics than this CD is not for you ya dig. Top 5 songs Intro(Blacks Gloves), True Colors, Get Ready, Whats Up, and Think Of A Problem.
