aight, this compilation is put out by HoggLife ent. its a aight comp.. but theres a lotta recycled shit on it.
1. To Live and Die in CA: Daz and Skee 64
Produced By: Daz
-this is a short track, beat is pretty cool. has bells in the backround that sound like One Love off of Nas' Illmatic. Daz and Skee both spit on point, this is a cool track to start this shit off to. Hook is pretty tight to. 7/10
2. UH: 847
Produced By: Lokei
-first impressions when you hear this: wack beat, weak hook, weak verses. not even gonna review this one. 2/10
3. Get Paid: Bad Azz, Lowlifes, Sylk E. Fyne
Produced By: Fingaz
-tight beat on this one. kinda fast paced.. i dont really feel the dudes spittin tho.. hook is kinda weak too. Sylk E. definatly spits the tightest verse on this. 5/10
4. Win Lose or Draw: Gangsta Dre
Produced By: Gangsta Dre
-Dre on the beat for this.. shit has like a organ in the back, but its fast paced. theres a whistle type thing that is annoying. Dre, however, makes up for the flaws in the beats by spittin that hogg shit. Pretty ill song. 7/10
5. Make Money: Xzibit, Soopafly, King Tee
Produced By: Chocolate
-Xzibit starts this off real fast, and hes tight as fuck. The beat is kinda weird.. the drums dont seem like they go with the other instruments. The other dudes besides X im not feelin really. 6.5/10
6. I Ain't Playin: Yukmouth, Mal B, J-Mack, Hollow Tip
Production: Not Listed
-Yukmouth starts it out first, and he's tight. "niggaz claimin king of oakland, with no credentials.." it almost seems like hes talkin about someone in this. Mal B sounds kinda like Skee 64 to me. J-Mack rips this up. Hollow is tight as fuck too. tight cut. 8.5/10
7. Make It Happen: Outlawz, Ghetto Stars, Baby Bubb
Produced By: Slump Factory
-this beat is off the hook rite here! Outlawz spit sick ass verses! Dubb 20 is the 2nd dude on here, and he's tight, real tight. Not all the Stars spit, cuz Freak-o isnt in this. But Outlawz dont outshine them at all. one of the sickest tracks on here. 9/10
8. Strapped Down Wit a Gun: T-Nutty
Produced By: K.G
-KG comes with a really tight beat on this. T-Nutty Nut? hard. period. problem? i'm pretty sure all these verses are recycled, i know a few of them are cuz i've heard them before. maybe some of them are new. This shit is like 4 or 5 verses tho, 6:01. Tightest track on the CD. 9.5/10
9. Whatever It Takes: Turf Hoggs, Keak da Sneak
Production: Not Listed

Produced By: Ecay Uno
-aight, if you have been sleepin on Ecay Uno, WAKE THE FUCK UP! production? he's on the level of hollis, one drop scott, etc. He's iller then most when it comes to raps. Beat on this: 9/10.. Ecay starts off spittin heated as fuck. The other dudes besides Ecay are average. 8/10
