"If you are tired of all of the pop rap with simplistic lyrics and want to see what hip hop is really about ,I suggest picking this CD up as well as the other volumes.( 1-6 )Wait till you hear the album, its REAL not the materialistic stuff you hear most of the time now. Everybody who claims to be a Rapper or MC shows what they got and do it in a way it was meant to be. Grabbing the mic and spitting vicious lyrics off the head, battling, Live, etc. After the first listen you'll want to pick up a mic yourself. Check the rhymes by JUICE, Canibus, and Chino XL and compare them to what you here on the radio or see on the TV. These MC's Melt mics within 2 bars!"
Straight heat---no fillers

"I applaud the long-overdue commercial success of Hip Hop and I'll defend it to my death. But it's frustrating to me that really good music like this CD has will not reach the masses via radio and video outlets like the ridiculously horrible projects from Jadakiss, Eastsidaz, or Fabolous. From end to end, this is how lyrics are supposed to be kicked. I don't know when the tide will shift, if ever. But I'm glad that I have the CD and I applaud Sway and King Tech for not keeping it "gutter" or "gangsta", but keeping it Hip Hop."
Fo Sho~!!

"Yo, yall definantly gotta peep this one out~!! Chino XL, Crooked I, Rass Kass, Planet Asia, and Juice blew it up. Right now after hearin this, I gotta say that Crooked I is the illest I ever heard. If him, Canibus, and Chino got together, the game would be over. But yo seriously, this album is madd tight. Check out Crooked I on Track 2. Den check out that joint wit Beanie, Bleek, and Chino. That jawn is blazin. Chino is too hot to handle. All the Canibus tracks were ill. Juice is a nice MC, yall gotta peep out his tracks. The Wu Tang tracks on here are aight. But listenin to that after Crooked I or Chino is like dunkin after Vince Carter. But Overall, it was madd blazin. This gotta be a "MUST GET" for all yall that like Lyricist, Battle MC's, and rap in general. Peep this now. GET IT~!! Ya Heard~!!"
