Second studio album released by Totally Insane, duo from East Palo Alto, Cali, formed by the rappers Mac-10 & Ad Kapone. Production credits are unclear: it should be done by Tony Jackson, The Enhancer, Stingy and TC. The rhythms these guys choose are overly cheap, scarce, minimal: the drum falls old, listless, doesn't hit, the samples are poor and the boys play more generic than usual with their bars on gangsterisms and extracts close to horror. Mixing makes the tape sink even lower, however, even with a more professional sound, the music would always sound bad. It's poorly thought out and worse executed. There's a catchy synth line in the choice number eight and it's the best thing about the project, for the rest, the LP, pushed by In-A-Minute Records, manages to get into the last places of the hip-hop / rnb chart and allows the dudes to continue some more time with this "rap thing".
Rating: 4/10.
