Yes, this was his second solo official solo, off 'Ruff Ryders Volume 2', and all this makes me feel old at 27, I remember the day I copped that, I was 15 summer of 2000, and I went to Target grabbed the cd, and saw 'What Lies Beneath', came home, and played that cd til like 2 am. That Styles track is just classic, the nihilism and anger of his flow, the regret and the ruthlessness in his bars and his voice....I already knew Styles was one based of Lox, and
Felony nikkas' from 'We are The Streets', but the was the one that showed you he was ready.
The overall album was straight too, the Lox track was perfect, and I even fukked with 'Got It All' at the time, and the Twista/Drag, plus Jada on 'WW3', you could tell they were pushing Kiss as the star, but Styles music had that rawness, that heart too it....
