Songs such as Hogg In The Game, Comin Up (Lil Flip drops a hot verse amazingly), Isa Playa, I Gotta Thang, I Know U Strapped, Everytime, and Slow Down are amazing songs that can only be brought to you by Pimp C. Even though these are not new verses they sound like it ( If you have the Live From Harris County Jail cd then you will recognize some of the lyrics.) The new beats are outstanding. His lyrics are as playalistic and vulgar as they've ever been as he spits that game on women, cars, hustlin, mackin, bustin heads.all that pimp shhiiit. He delivers on all aspects on this album. Pimp C, one half of legendary duo UGK, drops his first solo album The Sweet James Jones Stories. Pimp C is indeed a legend in the south and after his incarceration a couple years back you just knew that a real solo album was on the way. Pimp C lives the life he preaches, and he conveys this with a harsh elegance that makes THE SWEET JAMES JONES STORIES both gripping and supremely funky.

He drops names like Johnny "Guitar" Watson with ease, while alternating modern crunk beats (as on "Hogg in the Game") with unique blues-funk loops (on the sinister "Get My Money"). However, incarceration hasn't prevented the rapper from releasing a darkly fascinating portrait of his life.One of Pimp C's strongest attributes is that, like the cultured pimp character from many movies, he's proficient and passionate in his ultra-violent turf, but is acutely aware of the world outside of it. Unfortunately, he's lived that SUPERFLY life, and his second record, THE SWEET JAMES JONES STORIES, drops with Pimp C jailed for assault with a deadly weapon. On "I'm a Hustler," Pimp C weaves a vivid urban fable of a gangsta life, bolstered by an entrancing Curtis Mayfield-esque chorus.
