teh group as a whole is dope and a necessary element in hip hop right now. save for one song, the album was fairly free of pop pretensions. this is an album for fans of pure spitters.
fuck pop radio, fuck trying to save the world one concious song at a time, to hell with the club song/girl song/bullshit formulas, out with the encyclopedic "droppin knowledge" bullshit... the group, and album, is 90% rugged beats and well written rhymes. thats it. hard beats, dope rhymes, some shit to put yuor hands up to.
i hope they remain a crew for several albums.
