Rated 3/5
Review by diseone Jul 25, 2005 (edited over 4 years ago)
Another fact about the original release of this record is that there was in actual fact 2 original releases - one which contained the 'Original Version' & 'Jazz Remix' and another which contains a 'Not For Sale Mix'. The second release was pressed in extremely low amounts and now changes hands for silly money.

Interesting Fact # 1: The order in which you hear the MCs on the track is the order in which they arrived at the studio.

Interesting Fact # 2: Roots Manuva was in attendance of the recording session on day one, though he did not perform.

Interesting Fact # 3: Big Kwam & Lewis Parker were invited to take part but could not make it.

Interesting Fact # 4: The original release in 1997 was in aid of the Sickle Cell charity, but unfortunately, due to improper management on the previous labels part, the charity did not recieve anything from the proceeds.

Interesting Fact # 5: The project was filmed by thesituation.co.uk and the footage remains unreleased.

Interesting Fact # 6: Blak Twang, Funky DL, Phoebe One and Roots Manuva are all MOBO award winners.
