Reviews
- This is an album that doesn't get its just due as truly great. On my list for 1995 I have it as the 14th best album, which shows just what an incredible year this was for hip hop. A lot of great stuff got lost in the shuffle or not truly appreciated. Mr. Cheeks i hungry on this album and really showed his skills as an MC. While 90% of the MCing was handled by Cheeks, Freaky Tah was integral in their sound with his background hype rhymes. Usually I hate that especially at live shows but Tah had a way to make it sound even better. After his tragic passing the group never seemed to get back to this standard. Even Cheeks, who showed promise to be amongst the greats, his career just fizzled out. The group would put out a few more albums but never came close to this one. Anyways this is a true classic and any true hip hop head needs to have this in their collection.
