"If you have any kind of preconceived notions about what rap music is supposed to be, don't buy this album. Its brilliance might blind you."

"Damn it's the D.E. This is a tight CD folks. I don't know what to say about First Degree, except I'm lucky to have found out about him. I first knew about Lynch, Mr. Doctor, Sicx, X-Raided, C-Bo, etc. from the Sactown crew years and years ago.. but for some reason I never really discovered the D.E. until just now. And I'm happy I did.. he has a very sicc unique style.. at first I thought some of his vocals sounded like E-40 imitations, but then eventually I realized his sound is way too dark and his range is way crazier than E-40. His beats on this CD are tight too, from Phonk Beta, and all around his music has grown on me a lot lately. It's dope, go grab some of it folks. This is a great CD."
