"What can I say, they delivered again. Its different than 2 Hype and Fun House though. As you can expect from a record named Face the Nation, this is a more political and socially conscious Kid 'N Play. They come out hard against drug dealers, racism, sexism, and gangsta rap personas. I have to agree with them all accounts and commend them for putting out something positive for the kids to listen to during this hip hop era. Despite some of the heavier subject matter, a fun, classic hip hop vibe is still maintained through out this album. I also have to note that the production is quite good. Hurby "the Luv Bug" Azor is no longer in the driver's seat for the production on this album and only has a remix at the end of the record. Instead, other producers take the lead inlcuding legendary Pete Rock and Eric "Quicksilver" Johnson, who produced the most infectous beats on Funhouse. Even Play is quite impressive on the boards. And of course the great tag-team rhyming of Kid 'N Play is still in effect. I think they would easily wax most of todays MCs who seem to be of a lesser breed. Really, they are one of the greatest duos of all time, don't let anyone tell you other wise because they hated on their forays into feature films and cartoons."

"Kid N Play - the fun side fof Hip-hop, in a similar vein to Will Smith and Jazzy Jeff. This album came out on my 9th birthday, and although its not as good as 2 Hype it still rocks ass. 13 years on, and I'm still listening oto it! Take Ain't Gonna hurt No Body, probably the best Kid N Play song there was. Its a pity the cartoon got cut."
Classic Early 90's rap album!!

"Best kid and play CD they ever made. You have to be into this kind of softer hip hop to enjoy. If you like this CD, check out house party 3."
