Allmusic: 4/5
Entertainment Weekly: B
Rapreviews: 9/10
Rolling Stone: 4/5
The Geto Boys came out with this 1 year after their self-titled album came out, and this was their best effort that they ever did. Apparently though, this only took 2 weeks to record, who would figure that a masterpiece like this would only take 2 weeks to make? No one. Now for the track by track review.
1. Rebel Rap Family: Intro.
