This is the first realease by The Roots’ Okayplayer Records imprint. It has been out over a month now, but I feel it’s still being slept on. On top of Ohio producer RJD2, North Carolina’s Little Brother, Virginia emcee and Ghostwriter Skillz, who happens to be involved with a little battle with L.A. Laker Shaq, Philly’s Dice Raw and of course The Roots, you get a lot of West Coast flavor on this. From track 2 with Aceyalone & Madlib, to Dilated, Defari, Blackalicious and Hieroglyphics. It’s a very dope album. Be sure to look out for more heat coming from the Okayplayer imprint. Pick this album up A.S.A.P. This is Hip Hop at it’s best.
