"I'd have to say, being a female, I'm very critical of the music I listen to, and if the beats are great but the lyrics are dead, then it's not worth my time. Slum Village seems to intrigue me with songs like "Tainted," but then fall back again when you listen to other songs from their albums. Trinity was a disappointment, and their follow up was an improvement, but here, I felt like the beats and lyrics complimented each other...it's almost like a classic album...almost. "Can I be me" is my alltime favorite, and the following track ft. Dwele is beautiful. Though there aren't many tracks on this ablum, it's definitely worth buying and you money will be well spent."

"I tell u what. They r definitly filling in my Outkast void right now as far as groups go. This album is a certified sleeper hit. I say sleeper hit because I think they don't have a lot of exposure. I recently seen them on a commercial wit that song "Ease Up" in da background. They deserve s**t like dat if u ask me. The game is so backwards today. If u ask me guys like 50cent, juelz, and young jeezy to name a few don't deserve half of their earnings(that's if the game of hip-hop was based on talent). Their cds weren't quality hip-hop but slum village stay true to their roots which is another thing I love. Quality over quantity is what the game should b based on cause I hate to see a group like them not go platinum cause they put out great music. However u like it they delivered on this album. U want bump is on here, u like that laid back pimped type s**t its on here too. Long story short this album should be in ur collection immediatly. Its currently in my disc changer right now. Worth every $. R.I.P J-Dilla"

"This is a very decent album. Although the SV is not what it quite used to be...but that's all good, because they are not lost by far! When I heard the album, I immediately got captivated by "Multiply" ...NOW THIS IS CLASSIC and NO DOUBT ORIGINAL SLUM VILLAGE!!! If you are a true fan, then you will know what the hell I'm talking about! Peace & Pick up that DJ Muggs vs GZA!!! Peace SV!"
