Young Ed and Cellski do a great job with album. Cellski did all the producing and has guest appearances on several tracks. The beats can be compared with the best of them. Hitman and San Quinn are guests on the track Young Life. Young Ed was a senior in highschool when he recorded this album. He's a San Francisco native with several guest appearances on compilations and various albums. This album is a must have for any San Francisco Bay Area rap fan. The original 1996 release may be hard to find, but the 2003 rerelease can be easily found. This is a great album, with 5 star beats and lyrics. Give it a try, it may have to grow on you, but once it does you'll be happy you bought it.
