The rowdy lead single, 'Wild Out,' is an obvious reworking of Jay-Z's 'Jigga My Nigga,' but it was a hit on rap radio. 01-The Lox-The Heist 02-The Lox-Felony Niggas 03-The Lox-Yall Done Fucked Up 04-No Remorse Interlude 05-The Lox-Everybody Wanna Rat 06-The Lox-We Are The Streets 07-The Lox-Lick Shots 08-The Lox-Bust Your Gun 09-The Lox-Whatup 10-Styles P & Sheek Louch-Return Of The Ghost 11-Sheek Louch-Fuck That 12-Styles P Ft.Bucky-Kill Niggaz 13-Sheek Louch. While the LOX as a unit do not offer much in terms of topical dexterity, Jadakiss is one the industry's most underappreciated lyricists, which he clearly reiterates on his solo cut 'Blood Pressure.' Ruff Ryders in-house producer Swizz Beatz handles most of the production duties, and although his syncopated production can become repetitious, DJ Premier ('Recognize') and Timbaland ('Ryde or Die Bitch,' featuring Eve and Drag-On) provide some much-needed diversity with their signature sounds.
Not only because Puffy's glossy sound openly clashed with the group's thug mentality, but the change of scenery also furnished Jadakiss, Sheek, and Styles with an opportunity to assert their own identity. The LOX's highly publicized and drawn-out defection from Puffy's Bad Boy Records to DMX's Ruff Ryder camp was imperative.
