Best Song: F@*k'em

Worst Song: I Aint Feelin That

Now this is what I call a classic. You have the best producers and rappers from one region all on one CD. There are countless head bangers on this joint. From the hardcore sound of "Aquaman II", where D.O.G. defends himself against all the Madd Rappers that go around sending countless disses, over a remix of LL's "I'm Bad", to the laid back sound of K-Swiss (RIP) on "Just Hustling" instructing new rappers how to get out and hustle for their dreams.

 The best song on this compilation has to go to Young Bleek from Portland with his cut "F@*k'em". His flow blends perfectly with the mob sound of Big Squeeze to give you this colossal song. If you are a DJ and you're reading this, F@*k'em is definitely a song you should consider for your next mix tape.

Cool Nutz of Universal Records comes off throwing flames from his savage tongue on the track, "NW Game" where he & Mr. D.O.G. collaborate to let you know how they have set trends for the NW.

And I couldn't leave without saying something about Mac Money's debut track "I Puts It Down". This young fella comes off extremely hard. I'm anxious to hear more of his delivery.

"I Aint Feelin That" is picked as the worst track because I just wasn't feeling it. Nothing against the artist, just wasn't my cup of tea.

If you don't pick this album up, you don't know good Hip Hop when you hear it.
