4.5 superbAtavanHalen | June 28th 08

Gift of Gab and Chief Xcel present listeners here with an eclectic, left-of-centre collection of exceptionally well-executed hip-hop. Sliding effortlessly from roller-disco grooves to keyboard-lead slow jams, the album displays an impressive array of beats and fantastic bass lines. Standouts include the stripped-back "Make You Feel That Way" and the nine-minute hip-hop epic "Release", which features the genius poetry of the visionary Saul Williams and the hands-up-in-the-air feelgood flows of Lyrics Born.

Gift of Gab is an absolute BEAST. His delivery is so incredible that I can't do it justice via text. You have to hear it for yourself. Chief Xcel's beats are equally good, and add the right atmosphere to this album that makes it one of the most uplifting in all of hip-hop.
