CD ReviewsAfro-beat with a political message Joanna Daneman | Middletown, DE USA | 05/01/2003 (4 out of 5 stars) "There is great percussion here, definitely an afro-funk sound. The lyrics are clear, interesting and a nice alternative to hip-hop. There is a definite political message here, with lyrics like "Stop it, put your guns and your rockets, back in your pockets." If you like Frank Zappa, Home Cookin', the title cut will be really, really familiar. I found this very listenable. This cd will appeal to a strangely broad set of music listeners, from old Zappa fans, to those looking for new flavor in Hip-Hop to people who like political songs, to those who love afro-funk percussion. An interesting album."
