Synopsis

Album Description
After serving 15 years for manslaughter, reformed pastor Armstrong Cane (Ving Rhames) is ready to make amends with the neighborhood he abandoned. Returning to his late father's preaching ground, the First Community Church of God, he reaches out to Norris, a young, troubled dealer on the path to self-destruction. With Armstrong's guidance, Norris wants out, but is threatened with his life by drug boss Blaze (Dean McDermott) if he quits. When Armstrong is pressured by another pastor (Ricardo Chavira) to sell the church, their chances of building a new life seem slim. Together, the two strive to escape their dark pasts, and to reclaim a brighter future.
 

CD Reviews

Lupe the Great.
P. M. Hill | 01/31/2009
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Heard of Lupe of course but never actually bought an album from this fellow MC. Heard the song "Superstar" was on this album along with some unreleased freestyle/songs that arent on any of his actual albums and id figure id jump on it. Gotta say it was worth the buy! The flow is smooth the beats are milky and together it just makes a nice "background" music type album. Food for thought is all over this one with some topics some of these main stream cats would put their open ears to, Yet i guess thats the difference between mainstream and true hip-hop. If you can, get up on this one for sure. "Is yah ear drums open?""

"This is a truly great mixtape. The songs flow real smooth. There are some of Lupe's old tracks from "Food & Liquor" and "The Cool." Some of them are remixed or placed with new beats. There are also some extra underground like tracks towards the end of the CD. My favorite song out of these was "Lupe the Killer.""
