I d/led this awhile ago and I really enjoy it. It's typical DMS Crew sound (hard knock NYC rap meets hardcore NYC metal), but with MUCH more emphasis on hip hop. If you like La Coka Nostra, I'm sure you'll find something to dig here. Overall, I'd give this a 3.75, because Freddy isn't the greatest rapper, but he's helped out by Vinnie Paz and other DMS affiliates (Reef The Lost Cause and others) but overall the beats are quality and for a first album from a heavy metal frontman (or whatever you classify Madball and Agnostic Front) this is some dope shit.
