This album is so raw. The subject matter is flawless, unlike all this shit today that just seems to be random freestylin' shit. All the songs have a moral, a thesis, I guess you could say. The production is as good and better as many 5 mic "classics."

Any thoughts?

Spin listed it in their "Best 125 albums of the last 25 Years" a few years back. :

Producer and performer Prince Paul was part of '80s New York rap group Stetsasonic and made De La Soul before dropping this "satirical rap masterpiece." (Before year 1999 was up he'd also hit back with a new, SPIN-approved project, Handsome Boy Modeling School.) "Pioneering rap producer Prince Paul conceived his thug-life satire as a movie," the magazine wrote in January 2000, "and ended up directing a pictureless epic with an all-star cast that elevates the hip-hop skit to operatic glories."
