Yep, 'Back Home' is a great track. I haven't heard anything else by them, but I'll pick the album up when I see it in the UK.

Seattle locals blowing up big.  Those cats are the new Pete Rock and CL Smooth.  206 in the house!  About time for the northwest.

A very nice album indeed. My favorite track has to be "Loyalty." The production is amazing on that track. It sounds like they're using a talk box, but not in the conventional way, still great though.

Picked the album up yesterday. Easily, easily, the best hip-hop album of 2007. In fact, I haven't heard anything this well thought-out and produced in along time. Anyone sleeping on this needs a fucking lobotomy.

Yeah pitchfork gave 'Bayani' a good review so I downloaded it and I was blown away so I ordered a copy.

Good man, you know it makes sense.

"Morning of America" = absolutely incredible.
