Bangin' Debut

"Lil' Chrome delivers in this debut. Surprised the hell out me, honestly. It is definitely true that DJ Paul and Juicy J produce better for their solo artists in HCP than they do for themselves(Three6Mafia). Half, naw most of the tracks on this album are better heads up than 3-6's Most Known Unknown.



1. So Fresh- 4/5 Untraditional intro for an HCP solo artist. Usually the title track or promotion spot. Still bumps

2. Bussem' Up- 4/5 Nice crunk track w/ single potential.

3. Money for Crack- 4/5 You gotta love Juicy J's production

4. I Leaned- 5/5 Best track on the album imo. Killa (recycled) beat and lyrics. Boogie Mane rips his short verse.

5. Inhale- 4/5 Chorus is a sample of Trick Daddy verse from "Still Fly". Sweet beat.

6. Money by da Bags- 3/5

7. 16 OZ- 3.5/5 Lyrics are good. Chorus could have been better.

8. Straight to the Pros- 4.5/5 This should have been the intro. Sound like he singin in the background of the chorus.

9. Quarter Key- 5/5 Hot beat and chorus samples a old Pat verse form "Ghetty Green". Fie a** lyrics too.

10. Classic Chick- 5/5 4 da ****, bros. Yeeeaaahhh!

11. Get They A** Kicked- 4/5 Chorus is average HCP its just Lil Scrappy chantin it. Lil Wytes verse is hot.

12. I Smoke Weed- 4/5 Crunk bud song. Crunchy verse hot

13. 23 and 1- 4.5/5 Great production from Juice, Great track about being locked up.

14. Whatcha Need- 4/5 Frayser verse is hot! Decent track imo

15. My Life- 5/5 Beat is recycled but bumps. Chrome shows he aint the typical M-town rapper w/ this one.

16. If We Was Cool- 3/5

17. Gutta Mane- 4/5 "Look Out......Here come da Gutta Mane."

18. H.C.P- 4.5/5 Classic HCP track(no Lord or Pat, tho.) Paul mixes some old prophet type sh** in his intro verse which is HOT! Good verses from all ub'm.



Grab this album with the quickness if you are an HCP fan and aint got it yet. Chrome is tight, and brings a nice variety to the HCP roster. You wont be disappointed.

4.5 Star Effort

"Hypnotize Minds new artist Chrome really puts it down on this one. Once again HCP puts out a bangin' CD. Chrome starts off with a good track "So Fresh", which is followed by the track "Bussem Up", which would probrably be a good single off this album. A very crunk upbeat track. His album really delivers with the tracks "I Learned" (Which has an old modified Gangsta Blac beat), "Inhale", "Quarter Key", "This Is My Life", and "If We Was Cool". Chrome really shows he has what it takes to go Straight To The Pros. This album goes harder than many of the major deal albums you hear today. It seems that DJ Paul and Juicy J put out better albums for their artists' Chrome & Frayser Boy than they do their own. (Choices II & Most Known Unknown for Ex.) But anyways, go check out this Album, it is worth the money."

Hard as hell
