5 out of 5 stars '91 Gold.......2006-07-21

This album is indeed a underrated gem. Please do not listen to the negative reviewer. Whilst this album does fall into the afrocentric category, it is no way as trite/ militant as MG would have you believe. This is packed to the hilt with intricate wordplay, very funky beats, old school samples, and plenty of that fresh early ninety's scratchting. A couple of the four bonus tracks you get aren't on par with the quality of the rest of the album, but hey - they're free! This album is a must have for any old school fan (especially at the $6 its currently being sold for). Worthy of Extended Play.

5 out of 5 stars Underrated classic.......2006-05-10

The lyrics are dated - as are most Afrocentric lyrics in retrospect - but wouldn't you rather have interesting lyrics than today's glut of gun, car and ho talk? But the real joy here is in the music - Amen Ra and DOP would go on to be part of Puff Daddy's Hitmen production squad, and you can see why. Beats on the likes of 'Kemitcal reaction' and 'How U Figga' are golden age classics. Whenever I mention this album to friends they always smile and say 'classic' - they're right

1 out of 5 stars "Political Rap" Farrakhan Bandwagoneers are hilarious!.......2004-10-19

I have two things to say about these guys. First, they looked ridiculous and followed the "I hate Whitey/I love Farrakhan" bandwagon. Second, the lyrics to the song "Daffy Was A Black Man" are so incredibly stupid that they make completely irrelevant and ridiculous anything else they might have to say:

"So we were pursuing, like Wile E Coyote
You dig it? Sylvester and Tweety, Gonzalez was Speedy
But the duck I bet nobody knows he was supposed to
Represent a n*gg*r, you wonder how we figure?
Cause when Bugs got the laugh, Daffy got the trigger
Elmer Fudd was a g*ddamn blood clot
So how that sucker own a mansion and a yacht?
He got paid through exploitation of a brother
So to speak, whose lips resembled a beak"

Yes, these are the actual lyrics.
