Let's notice that the album is released in the label TNT Recordings like Digital Underground's first four albums, 2Pac's first two albums, Funky Aztecs first album, Syke & Johnny's Evil Mind Gangsta's album, Smooth's two second albums and Big Syke's first solo album when he left Death Row !!
Bigg Money Odis, like Tupac, appeared for the first time in Digital Underground's This is an E.P. release (1991, TNT/Tommy Boy), but in "Nuttin' Nis Funky". And the funny thing is that he is replaced by 2Pac in some live records of the song. But his career will be short.
See the video of the single "Money" feat. Shock G
Pee Wee was a member of the Underground Railroad, a group of producers constitued mainly for producing 2Pac's first album 2Pacalypse Now (Most of them were members of the Digital Underground - Shock G, Money B, DJ Fuze -, the rest were Tupac friends : Stretch, Jeremy JZ Jackson and Big D. Pee Wee himself produced "Trapped" and "I Don't Give a Fuck".
Pee Wee is also featured as a rapper in "I Don't Give a Fuck" !! But almost nobody knows because it is never written anywhere (people thinks it is the man called Pogo but it is Pee Wee's voice and style)... He also makes the backing vocals in "Something Wicked". Giving so the identity of three songs, he is an important part of this first album.
He will be again featured alongside 2Pac in the "DFLO Shuttle" in Digital Underground's second album Sons of P (1991, TNT/Tommy Boy), recorded the same year than 2Pacalyspse Now, released one month earlier.
Pee Wee and Bigg Money Odis will be featured also with Tupac, Money B in Funky Aztecs first album Chicano Blues (1992, TNT), in which Pee Wee also produced 6 tracks (with two other by Jeremy Jackson)...
After that, Pee Wee will be featured with Too Short, Ant Banks, Juvenile Committee, Too Short's Dangerous Crew and will produce tracks for Too Short, MC Breed, Juvenile Committee, Goldy, Dangerous Crew. Too Short's friends.
