This album packs a punch with its standout single, "Who Ride Wit Us." Notably, there's a fierce diss track titled "Callin' Out Names," aimed squarely at some heavyweights in the game, specifically Foxy Brown and DMX.By the beginning of 2001, this joint had already moved 440,000 units, solidifying its place in the hearts of hip-hop heads everywhere. Kurupt came through with that raw, lyrical heat, making sure his voice was heard loud and clear in the ever-evolving rap scene.This jam was laid down by the homie Daz Dillinger and his partner in crime Blaqthoven. It features a dope sample from "Ikes Mood," a classic banger by Isaac Hayes.The album hit the charts hard, climbing all the way to Number 5 on the Hip Hop list and landing at 31 on the Billboard 200.
