East Points Greatest Hit is his debut album and it was released in 1999 on Interscope Records. Production is done by the one and only Organized Noize along with Mr. DJ. The beats are extremely well crafted and are multi-layered with live instruments. The production team never disappoints and lays out the perfect platform for the artist. Breeze's delivery is very fresh and distinct. His profound lyrics showcase large amounts of clever word play while also being light on the ears. Featuring on the album is Outkast, Goodie Mob, Eightball, Kurupt, Witchdoctor, Sleepy Brown, Backbone, Nivea and The Calhouns. Although Breeze made numerous appearances for his label mates, this happens to be the only record released by him and it seems to be very promising both lyrically and musically.
