...She's Always Right is one of my favs on this album. This album produced by Moka Only and Rob the Viking and Paul Nice is a heavy hitter no more little leagues for these guys...Moka Only also a talented artist puts in just the right amount of umpf to take this album to the limits it deserves. When you hear Jampacked or Get Stung you will understand what being a Scorpion is all about and the fact all three of the main artists are all "Scorpios" it gives it a sound like no other hip hop album to date..If you haven't heard this album go out right now and get it you will not regret it and you'll be hangin on every word waiting for the next track to play....

"Well who are you? Im the one that they call A-B. And do what? Step to me you'll be O-U-T."

Before I got that I had only heard of Prev from Swollen and Moka as featured on the first Battle Axe compilation. I showed a friend of mine my 2 Battle Axe CDs and he set me up with this beauty and Bad Dreams (before they added "Bring it Home" and ruined it by reproducing the "Fuel Injected model" of song production). I popped Bad Dreams in right away and put off this one until I was bored and popped it in my discman.

"Well who are you? Im the one P-R-E-V. And do what? Step to me youll lose your J-O-B."

I was blown away by the tracks at the beginning and the end of the albums. The middle lags a bit but I can see the attempt at CRAPPY experimentation. At any rate, it is all forgiven by the end of the disc. The 3 minds at work on this disc flow and intertwine so well that on my favourite song that I have been quoting all along ("Antz out of a Job") has all three of them on every chorus basically completing a single idea as one mind.

"Well who are you? Im the one M-O-K-E. And do what? Step I'll crush you like an A-N-T."

A must buy for anyone loves 2 or more of these artists individually.

I know that there is alot of Battleaxe fans out there, and if you are I strongly recomend you get this album. If you like Swollen Members (who doesn't), you will love this. Abstract Rude, Prevail and Moka Only put together one of the tightest albums I've heard in a while, and with MC's like these three you can't go wrong. ALL the tracks are dope - GET THIS ALBUM!!!!

if your a fan of battleaxe hip hop, this is right up there with "Balance" solid rhymes as always from these three masters of the mike. And excellent production from Moka Only and Rob The Viking, Heavily recommended

Anyone who knows these cats, or even if you dont, I got a few words for you. Buy it, blazin joint!!

THIS WAS AN ALRIGHT CD....THE LYRICS WERE ON POINT, BUT THE MAJOR FLAW WAS SOME OF THE BEATS, NONE OF THEM WERE REAL CATCHY AND AT TIMES SOME SONGS SOUNDED SIMILAR WHICH CAUSES US TO SKIP,SKIP, SKIP...AND WHEN YOU SKIP SONGS YOU MISS VERSES, SOMETIMES WE MISS VERSES THAT COULD BE GREAT, BECAUSE SKIPPING A SONG FOR REDUNDANT BEATS. ROB THE VIKING ALWAYS HAS GREAT PRODUCTION AND SOME SUPER ECCLECTIC BEATS, BUT THIS ONE JUST WASN'T THERE, THE PRODUCTION WAS GREAT, ALL THE SONGS BANGED REAL HARD, BUT JUST NOTHING THAT SET THEM APART, OR LETS JUST SAY THERE WASN'T ANY TRACKS THAT YOU COULD JUST STOP AND SAY "THAT WAS A BANGER".

beats are pretty tight,and naturally the lyrics by 3 westcoast kings are tight as hell

This is a [kickin] album with heavy beats and lyrics you can definitely relate too...She's Always Right is one of my favs on this album. This album produced by Moka Only and Rob the Viking and Paul Nice is a heavy hitter no more little leagues for these guys...Moka Only also a talented artist puts in just the right amount of umpf to take this album to the limits it deserves.
