T-Rock almost never lets me down, which really says something when you look at how many projects he drops. Delete the skits/intros and this is just five solid tracks of gangsta/horrorcore themed hip hop that I've had no problem looping over and over. I like all of the rappers here, but it's no surprise that the verses from T-Rock are the most enjoyable. His rapping on 'Lay It Down' is one of the reasons I love the guy.

T-Rock dropped four of these songs about two weeks before this dropped that wet the appetite. Two in particular, with 'My Everything' and 'Yeen Gotta Like Me', made me anticipate this heavily as I played them on repeat. The former is a religiously themed song that feels like something from 'The Kairos Album' and the latter is T-Rock at his hard-hitting best. His flow on it reminds me a little of Kendrick at times. Elsewhere, T-Rock borrows from Pac's 'Me and My Girlfriend' on 'Whirlwind' - "It's like the weed is my girlfriend." The opener is a dope dark song with great rapping from Rock and Odd-1. 'Got Real' matches that theme as well. 'Fuck Y'all Too' is the weakest moment but nothing among these nine songs will let a T-Rock fan down.
Best Tracks: It Was Written, Yeen Gotta Like Me, You My Everything.
Maaan, T-Rock is hungry here. He'd been waiting a while to release a solo album after his demo dropped and it shows. The beats aren't all great but the rapping is excellent.
There are some good tracks here, particularly early on, but overall this is one of the weakest Rock albums track for track. Overall the beats have a pretty dark feeling to them but they just don't have enough bite to them, despite T-Rock's usual great style over them.
Best Tracks: This Is What You Get, Murdererz, Gimme Room, Voltron
The fact that T-Rock raps so ferociously and has swagger to his voice, makes it difficult to dislike anything he does over a decent beat. This album is one of the last T-Rock albums I had to listen to, as I await his 2011 album. Again it's the same ol' stuff, hard southern, dirty south influenced beats. It is perhaps a track or two too long as it stretches the capacity of a compact disc, but if you enjoy T-Rock you should enjoy enough of this. 100 Feet is one of his best.
Best Tracks: 100 Feet, Fuckin' Wit Pimpin, Tension, Pop Ya Collar
