Spice 1 is back with his 15th album. This one he gets his flowers. With heavey hitting featured artists like Rick Ross, Snoop Dogg and a lot more, this turns out to be like Mack 10's Recipe more than anything.

Doggy's Angels , or later known as Tha Angels, formed of: Big Chan (Chan Gaines), Coniyac (Kim Proby-Davis) and Kola Loc (Kola Marion).
