"E-40's little brother is out there with his second solo album. This time, he's out of Sick Wid It records and he released it under his own label Shot Records. I loved his first one, and "Six Figures" is a bit better and quite different. First of all, D-Shot is the one who produced the album. And to tell you the truth I was quite amazed by his production abilities. I had no idea the boy had SO MUCH TALENT. His beats are awesome and I wish he produced for other people as well. His music is some of the best I've heard. Another difference is that on this album he features a lot of guest rappers to help him out. He may be out of Sick Wid It but he brought a lot of their players on his album and others too. Rappers featured are : E-40, B-Legit, Levitti, Suga T, Mr. Malik, Young Mugzi, Mac Shawn, Too $hort, Spice 1, G-Note... Quite an impressive list, isn't it? I loved all of them of course, but I wish D-Shot had more solo songs. 1 solo song out of 10 songs isn't enough. I think he IS a very good rapper and should've rapped more. But he preffered handling production and executig the record. The last difference from his debut is that on this one all the hook are by singers. But don't let that deter you! Because the hooks are VERY tight and take nothing from the songs! D-Shot should keep up with his label and keep putting such quality material out."
