One of the greatest hip hop albums of all time imo. One of my favorite groups. I appreciate how they've evolved over the years as well.
Facts.
I was expecting them to be the new public enemy,with the album cover ,lyrical content and videos.
empowering the black youth to delve into their history of being kings ,queens and having empires.
Stic went with the health,internal revolution and wellbeing,M1 went with the external revolution and 'do for self' ethos

I'm hoping theres a emcee or a group thats out there and would tackle the root of White Supremacy like these cats did. I love what Kendrick and J Cole are doing but I feel that they aren't gonna go for bat and put out songs like "Police State" "Animal in Man", "They Schools" or put out a first single like Hip Hop where they talking about running up on crakkkers in City hall.

The Production on here was beautiful and the album hasn't "aged" at all. If there isn't a time for Dead Prez to really come back NOW is the time. What is going on with these guys?
one of my favorite albums of all time
