  When i first saw this album I was wondering who is he? But from being a listener of all Down South rap i figured it out fast. From being featured on the T-Rock "Conspiracy Theory" album II Tone released his first solo album "In Too Deep". It's time for some new underground kings from Memphis to shine. From what I heard about this cat he use to be down with Three 6 mafia thats how him and T-Rock got together. The cds where produced by the same cat so lets get in to the album.

  The album starts off with intro called "Just Gettin' Started" when he tell about his return from the underground to his first cd. Just somethin to put u up on his history..

  "What I Like" is the first song its has a club feel to it a classic Memphis song. This song is about drugs so I guess thats what he like!! But all in all this is a tight ass song...

  "No Remorse Pt. 2" features Da Crime Click, it starts off wit the sounds of someone runnin' for there life, an then the bass drops to the sounds of violins. The songs is out the frame wit a hook thats lets everyone know where hes from: No Remorse its live or die killaz from da southside / when u see my click ridin' thou loc'ed out you better run and hide / busta boyz talkin' noise claimin' dat they can't see me / Bizitch you ain't nizow hizow dat im str 8 from tennessee...

  "Back It Up" is a strip club song where he and Miss T. go at it over a tight ass track. When I first heard this song I was like is that "GANGSTA BOO" so 4 sho Miss T. can hold her own. This is a song strip clubs will love from Memphis to tha A-Town...

  "Money Brings Power" features T-Rock and Kingpin Skinny Pimp. This song has a killer track and II Tone shows he can hold his on wit the big boys. T-Rock has the second verse wit skinny at the end.

  The next track is called "America" its talks bout the events on Sept. 11, 2001. Hes off the chain on this one. The delivery on and the lyric are tight as hell..

  "Down South Regime" is the posse song that has the same artist on its from the "International Terrorist" (from the T-Rock Conspiracy Theory album) posee song but the beat is more up tempo somethin to get crunk 2...

  "Here I Am" is a str 8 gangsta song where II Tone is going off tellin' people if u want some come and get it. This is another great song.

  "Come Get High" is a more layed back track somethin' u can smoke and ride to. While you blazing a blunt of dro u can ride and get high to this.

  The Outro is called "It Ain't Over" but i thought it was. This album has 2 hiden tracks. Wit the track from T-Rock's Intro II Tone, J Love, and Miss T puts it down.   The second hiden track is called "Gunclaps" it features Da Crime-Click its a tight song reppin all cites across the south.

  II Tone has one of the best albums to come out of Memphis in long time just a matter of whos listening. Im just glad to hear somebody other than Three 6 puttin' it down from Memphis and sounding good. The production on the album was tight and II Tone showed the world his skills so hopefully we will get to hear more from this artist. The album has been picked up and distributed by select-o-hits the same company that deals with Three 6 so everybody this is a album worth gettin...
