Second studio album for Dion Hayes aka 42 Dugg, trapper from Detroit, Michigan. The moniker refers to Crips, so does the cover. For his second album, he brings out 14 tracks for a total of half an hour, and three guests (Lil Baby, Yo Gotti and Babyface Ray). Most of the tracks are generic, trap rhythms, sometimes decent hardcore slow deliveries, rare samples, functional hooks. There are several interesting variations, such as g-funk synths ("Y&T 2"), piano samples ("It Get Deeper"), dark trap beats ("Turnt Bitch"), plus, Lil Baby & Yo Gotti come out with the club banger "Not a Rapper" (I'm starting to think Supa Hot is one of the biggest inspirations of the period). Nevertheless, this tape is energetic, generic and gray, 5/10.
