Sno on “Bob Yo Head Like A Chicken” and Players Inc. on “Put One Leg In The Air” bring additional flavor to the album, showcasing the group’s ability to work seamlessly with other talented artists.

Other notable tracks include “Get Ya Swerve On” and “For The Player In You,” both of which embody the swagger and attitude that defines West Coast rap. The skits, like “Kflx Radio With Chris Talley” and “The Phone Call,” add a touch of humor and help to create a cohesive listening experience that keeps the audience engaged throughout.
