"The first reviewer below is obviously unfamiliar with the "screwed/chopped" style pioneered by Texas' DJ Screw (RIP). As the second reviewer noted, if you know what it is, you know what to expect, & this cd is a great example of what it is. Standout tracks include "Things" and "At The Club," & the entire album fits really well with the slowed-down and doubled-beat process which is what "screwed" versions basically are. Michael Watts just did David Banner's "Mississippi" album, which in my opinion is much better than the "regular" version. This is an excellent example of hip-hop's diversity and innovation -- check it out & you'll soon be hooked on the syrup-style."
