Chronic Chronicles

"Juicy J's solo release from the Three 6 Mafia showed how important he is to their success with this lp. The original version of "Like A Pimp" is found on here as the remake on Da Unbreakables. The song "Name It After Me" has one of those old school pimp type beats that should have been named Like A Pimp. "Mafia Niggaz" features the entire Mafia and Frayser Boy. Taken from Linkin Park, "Smoke Dat Weed" featuring Lord Infamous is an anthem for smokers, drinkers and popers. Chronicles contains three instrumentals that will keep you feening for some more. Juicy and his brother (Project Pat) teamed up to represent on "North, North Pt.2". Frayser Boy's flow featured on "Gimme Head" is quite impressive with Juicy J. There couldn't be a Three 6 presentation without "Who Da Buckest", that proves they are definately the crunkest of them all. Juicy's Chronicles is an almost classic and is necessary for Three 6 Mafia fans."

"These solo albums are newer to the crazy click. Solo tracks by Juice have been on Three 6 Mafia/T.D.C.U.T. albums(such as da classic 'Slob On My Nob', as well as numerous other ones). MOST of these songs feature Frayser Boy and La Chat though, so I myself wouldn't really consider this a "solo". Although I dig H.C.P., this IS supposed to be Juiceman's solo, not spotlight for the rest of the camp, over half the album featuring La Chat and Frayser Boy. This solo was a good album to make on Da Juice's part, but it does sound a little rushed and not as great as it definitely could have been, although it is still a bumpin' brilliant album.

'Pimptro', a basic dedication to Juicy's brother Project Pat and his ridiculous amount of jail time to serve. Very fresh intro, better then all the others I've heard, an old-school funky beat and Juicy praising our wrong system.

Another bumpin' track would be 'Name It After Me' featuring posse member Frayser Boy. Very old-school beat here, very laid-back smoke-type track. If you like that type of style, download this track and decide if this song is worth buying the album alone. Frayser Boy delivers well for one of his first softer song apperances.

Onto the most talked about track from this album, 'Smoke Dat Weed', which features H.C.P member Lord Infamous Da Scarecrow and a Linkin Park inspired beat(yeah, yeah, In The End), although Juice made this song better then LP could ever dream to do. My favorite verse from this song is by the one and only Scarecrow, very good drug anthem. Now if you had any doubt on copping this album, please download or hear this song somehow before ya decide not to.

Now onto my favorite track from this album, 'Pimp Talk/Like A Pimp', featuring La Chat. The main thing about this song that catches me is tha beat, its one fo the crunkest I've heard so far. I downloaded this song just to hear something new and I HAD to buy this album after I heard that one track. I would recommend listening to this song over any other one.

'Soldiers From The Northside' & 'D!ck Suckin' Hoez' close the album, two bumpin' thumpin' beats that show J's extremely talented production. Juice doesn't rap on these tracks and doesn't need to. It always amazes me at Juicy(and Paul's) ability to produce such good music after so many tracks. They produce everyones music past and present who are in tha H.C.P. Think 'bout it, not just Three 6 Mafia's beats. T-Rock's. Project Pat's. Group efforts such as 'Choices', 'Da Headbussaz' etc. The Checkwriters are genius.

Thanks for reading this, I hope I made some sense out of this album. Pick it up today, can you dig it?

ONE OF THE BEST SOLO ALBUMS TO BE RELEASED BY A 3-6 MEMBER

"THIS ALBUM IS DEFINITELY BANGIN. THIS IS TRUE SOUTHERN HIP HOP. SONGS LIKE THE NORTH NORTH REMIX, ''SMOKE DAT WEED'', ''WHO DA BUCKEST'', ''MAFIA N***AZ'', AND ''GIMME SUM'' ARE ALL TIGHT AS I DON'T KNOW WHAT, BUT THE BEST SONG ON THE ALBUM IS ''KILLA KLAN''. THE ONLY THING THAT HURTS THE ALBUM IS ITS LAST SONG, ''D**K SUCKIN H**S'' AND ITS OTHER POINTLESS INSTRUMENTALS. BUT OTHER THAN THAT, THIS SHOULD SATISFY ANY OF THE REAL THREE 6 MAFIA FANS OUT THERE. TRIPLE SIX UP IN THIS MOTHERF****R AND THEY AIN'T GOIN NOWHERE!"
