From back cover:
"I released The Better Tomorrow EP in 1996. It came out about the same time I released another LP entitled Dr. Octagon. I have added several vintage tracks to make it into an LP. These tracks give a pretty good picture of what I was doing in 1996."

Reviews
- King Of N.Y. is a Top 5 Kool Keith track. Worth owning for this alone.
- To me this is like the sequel to Dr. Octagon. It's in the same style as Dr. Octagon and was recorded at the same time. Automator lays down some fat beats while Kool Keith lays down the fat lyrics along with some help from Neph The Madman and Poet. Some stands out tracks are A Better Tomorrow, Sleep, and Buck Buck. Highly recommended for Automator or Kool Keith Fans!
