Review by ethan Oct 25, 2004 (edited over 5 years ago)
List of major samples:
4 samples Bob James' "Blue Lick"; 5 samples Roy Ayers' "We Live In Brooklyn, Baby"; 7 samples Tavares' "Bad Times"; 8 samples Bobbi Humphrey's "Blacks & Blues"; 11 samples Bobbi Humphrey's "Jasper Country Man"; 12 samples Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five's "Superrappin' Theme"; and 13 samples Shuggie Otis' "Island Letter".
People expecting the same as "Reachin'" were surprised by the tone of this, the DP's second CD, which was a lot more Afro-centric and politically-minded than their first. Maybe that's why this wasn't as successful.
