"I was skeptical when Amazon recommended this to me, but after reading some reviews and doing a little background checking, I decided I'd give it a try... the result: I'm rather pleased and it is better than I was expecting. Though relatively short, with only 12 songs, you get 1 near classic, 5 are ok, the other 6 are good solid songs, and none I skip over. He does in a was have a sound semi-like Jay-Z, but that is not a bad thing. Has a decent flow and mainly content you've heard about the streets before, and a few radio friendly songs for the ladies. The album has 6 guests appearances, all are on here just doing the hooks, no other rappers are on here. Production is pretty good as well, and handled from many different people. Khao and Reefa each do 2 songs, Jelly Roll, WOnka, M. Rell, Nard & B, Tha Bizness, Shondrae, Black Elvic Williams, and LT MOe all do 1 song. I Think this is a good album to check out and I'm interested in hearing some of his future work.

"This cd is going to flop so hard and it's b/c of NO PROMOTION !!!! I went to 2 Best Buys and 2 Targets and 1 local cd store and none of them had 1 copy and had no idea who WNP was. I finnaly found the cd at a FYE 20 miles away. I live in Baton Rouge the capital of Louisiana and it's a big city with no Willy NP.
On to my review this cd is CLASSIC !!! He is singed to Ludacis's DTP records he is from Arazona and every song is great I listen straight threw no skips and I reccomend this cd to everyone. It's crazy how he is on DEf Jam records and major record lable and had no promotion at all."
