celly cell came pretty tight on this album. I only gave it four stars because it is'nt as good as the G files or Heat 4 yo azz. But his new one did a good job of coming with some new sounds on some tracks, and the same gansta old school style on some other tracks. If you like celly cell definately buy this cd, it's worth it. check out tracks 4,5,10,14,and 16.

I had to special order this CD, but it was worth the wait. If you are not into west coast rap, you probably wont like it. If you are into the South stuff, he's got a little something on there for you. He has some bangin' songs like tracks 9&10. The others are also very good too. He is still an innovator in the game, and has that certain flavor to him that makes him hot. This is also the deepest i've ever heard Celly's lyrics, with his final track talking about the death of his father. This is a good CD, i'd recommend that you pick it up.

It's been almost 5 years since Celly Cel's last album (and his worst "deep Conversation") and over 11 since his debut, and this one is not far behind "G-Fliez" "Heat Fo Yo Azz" and "Killa Kali" (his first 3 albums). It's nice he took a few years off and came back with a solid album. This one has 16 songs, 12 are good, 2 are ok, and the other 2 are near classics. Guests are on just over half the songs, but only rapping on about a third of them, so you get enough of Celly Cel after a long break. Production, like on most his albums, is very good. Pro Hoezak does 7 songs, Sam Bostic does 2, JMC Mob, Rhythm X, Hobo Tone, G-Man Stan, Binky Mack, Stix, and Big House each do 1. A nice album to have for some West Coast rap fans.

This cd is off the hook. Celly Cel is an OG and he straight drops it this album. It reminds me of myself back in the day, any true gangsta should pick this up, or any music fan for that matter.

Celly Cel back again in 2005 with nice album. This tru West Coast Music which have got synthesizer bass sound and a lot of great gangsta rhymes, thise man is OG and he from Bay Area this is gangsta getto where black people shut each other and they are exploitation from white goverment in the USA.( Bloods & Crips and the other gangs wchich are situated in all Cali)But Celly Cel don't give up and try to make a good cd. The effect is great. Becouse he is from Sicc Wic Record and cooperate with great mc like Spice1 E-40 B-Legit C-bo, and great producers like Mike Moesly and Studio Ton. Effetc is great. If you are west coast fan oh no If you like good music with a lot of bass sound and gangsta lyrics this album is for you. This is good alternative to MTv

I'm a huge Celly Cel fan, so I was really glad when after a long wait (almost 5 years) Celly Cel dropped his 5th solo album. I've got to admit I am a little bit dissapointed, cause all of his albums till now are classics to me, and the main reason is that I felt that the production on this one wasn't as consistant as on previous albums. Some of the beats are really good, but some just fail to impress. In terms of lyrics, Cel has always been humble, never got into that ghetto fabulous sh**. He makes music from the streets, for the streets. His flow and voice sound tight as always. Guest on the album include E-40 (who's on the best song on the album), Juvenile, WC (on a song that it's actually just a remix of a song they did on his last album "Deep Conversation"), his crew the Hillside Stranglaz (they don't impress that much) and a few others. On this album Cel shows a lot of maturity, he talks about his life, his career, to go along with the usual gangsta topics (which Celly Cel is pretty good at). It's less hard-core than his previous ones. Overall, I thought the album turned out nice, but some of the beats are lacking or didn't suit Celly Cel's style. He deserves to work with some hotter beatmakers than the one he could afford here. I think the title of the album suits it's content perfectly, and as a loyal Celly Cel fan (ever since he was on Sick Wid It) I enjoyed hearing from his once again...
