Better than I originally thought. No masterpiece. Not better than One for All. But enjoyable nonetheless. Album is out of print. If you like conscious, funky alternative hip hop... I recommend.
Top tracks: The Return, Don't Let it Go to Your Head, Maybe One Day, I'm Black and Im Proud, Probable Cause, Love & Hate
