Background
"Triggernometry" is an album consisting of 10 new tracks and 11 stories from the life of the group Onyx, told by the group members themselves in the gap between the songs. All the songs were produced by one producer Kronic Tones, who had already produced 7 tracks for Fredro Starr's second solo album "Don't Get Mad Get Money". Production is made in the popular West Coast Hip-Hop genre at that time, in the songs you can find shades of Gangsta Rap and G-Funk styles. The album was criticized by the fans of the group Onyx, who believe that such production is suitable only for nightclubs, but not for the streets.[1][2] Originally, the album was due out on October 31 under the title "Triggernometry: The Study of Guns", but later the name was shortened to "Triggernometry", and the album was released earlier.[3][4]
Singles
The one and only single, "Mama Cryin'/Wild N Here" featuring X1, Begetz, Dirty Getinz, Bad Luck was released in 2003.
