"If u a real Bone fan then u already know this ain't no new material, it was originally out about 2004. It wasn't released in stores tho'. I don't know what took so long, but this is classic Krayzie Bone at some of his best. Must have for a Krayzie fan. "How We Roll" "Smoke wit Me", and "Game Tight" which samples Pac, are my faves."

"Krayzie Bone's underground release "Leathaface the Legends Underground Vol. 1" was re-pressed in 2009 but originally surfaced in 2003. It's more of a short album than a mixtape, rugged and unpolished. Highlights include the heavy trunk rattler "How We Roll" and "Game Tight," which samples 2Pac's "Ambitionz Az a Ridah." My copy from 2003 also has a bonus track by his group Knieght Rieduz. The rest isn't much to write home about, but as any Bone fan knows, Krayzie's inimitable flow, voice, and style always entertain. The songs are short, some much better than others, and it's not nearly as heavy or inspired as Krayzie's album material (there's a reason it was released in so limited a capacity), generally a little more upbeat. It's pretty fun at times, with lots of gun talk and middling production. Fans shouldn't consider this essential by any means but some Bone collectors might like to have it."
