At the rise of gangster rap this album went a completely different path. Ed dropped some knowledge. And he dropped it so damn funky that I hardly listened to anything else but this (and Master Ace's Take a Look Around that I recorded to the other side of the C90). Still can rap along most of the tunes here. Not that this MUST be a sign of quality, but in this case it is.
