INTERESTING FACTS:
 BACKWARDS MASKING
     Creepin On Ah Come Up has one instance of backwards masking (something played backward in the background of a track).  In the "Intro" the very first few seconds are backwards.  They are, when played forward, an alteration of The Lord's Prayer:  "Heaven in art which Father our, Our Father which art in Heaven" (which is, in itself a sentence forward and back).  The voice saying this is almost certainly Eazy-E. On his last, posthumously-released album, "Str8 Off The Muthaphuckin Streets of Compton" his intro contains the following message:  "I am the ressurection and the life.  He who believes in me, though die, yet shall live.  And whoever lives, and believes in me, shall never die . . . . Fear not them which kill the body, rather fear him which is able to destroy both the body and soul in Hell. Get thee behind me, Satan, and push me along . . . . Come with me bitch as we walk through the door backwards:  Heaven in art which Father our, Our Father which art in Heaven." . . .   
(One will note also that at the end of the "Intro" for Creepin On Ah Come Up, Eazy says "Now let's walk through the doors backwards my thugs and play with the ouija board." 
TYPOS
     There are three mispellings on this album.  Ouija is spelled incorrectly as "Quija" on both the album leaflet and the actual CD.  St. Clair is spelled incorrectly ("St. Claire") on the E.99th St./St. Claire street sign.  And on the "thank yous" there is this mispelling: "all our Elryia niggaz"--it should say "Elyria", which is a city in Northeastern Ohio. 
SALES
     This album went quadruple platinum!
NOTABLE THANKS
     "E.1999 Eternal"  fans will recognize "THIS EP DEDICATED IN MEMORY OF OUR NIGGA WALLACE (WALLY) LAIRD III." from the songs "Crossroad" and "Tha Crossroads." 
     Also notably mentioned in their "thanks":  1/2 Pint, Mo Heart (of the Poetic Hustla'z), Sin (of Graveyard Shift), Eazy-E, Archie Arch (II Tru's producer), Jhaz (of II Tru), Mo Thug Organization, and Tim (UNEEK) Middleton (i.e. DJ U-Neek).
HOW UNEEK
     If you carefully inspect the credits on this album, you will notice that tracks 3, 4, and 6 have listed in their credits "KEENU SONGS"  "Keenu" is, of course, "UNeek" backwards.
