(5 out of 5 stars)

"I've been a big J Zone fan and after readin interviews of him not wantin to do another album after "Pimps don't pay taxes" I was dissapointed, but pleased when earlier this year he'd be coming out w/another album. Now that I've finally got the chance to listen to the whole thing a dozen times here's my lil analysis. Production wise J Zone has always been great on, but a few of the joints on here really were upsetting....they were good, but not what you'd expect (Steady Hoggin and Too Many Babies). I totally skip Too Many Babies cause as funny as it was the first time listenin it really is annoyin more then entertainin now. 1 skit should probably have been cut from the album all together (2 bit club) and I think he should of put "S.L.A.P." on here as well or atleast a joint w/Huggy Bear, I totally missed him on this album. All together it's a great album I particularly love "5 star hooptie" "Prima Donna" (cause Copywrite is too ill) and "Ho Kung Fu"...those are my choice cuts, the others are great cept the ones I named earlier. With all my lil gripes I totally recommend this to anyone who loves humor and great beats, but buy 'Pimps' and his other EPs too, cause honestly that's still his best work."
