"Out of all of the compilations that I've owned, Soundbombing 1 and 2, Any of the Wu Tang compilations, Lyricist Lounge 1 and the LL that was from Echo unlimited, you get the picture, this is one of the best. All of the tracks are bangin. This had the old Xzibit, who wasn't caught up in the Paparazzi, before Pimp my Ride took control of him and he sold out. Great tracks from Scaramanga, I Born, and Tommy Gibbs, one of Big L's boys. Every track had on point lyrics, and the beats were one you could do a lot of head noddin action. The only complaint I have is I wish KRS would actually rap instead of just do chorus lines. But it was nice to here him chant We up from da underground listen to the sound, pop pop, you get the drift."
One of the illest, realest hip-hop compilations

"this album right shows the potential and range hip-hop music has. cats down with the underground, and cats on the mainstream tip can all knock this without having to skip tracks. even the innerludes is educational and something you need to listen to."
