Aceyalone and Abstract Rude have two of my favorite hip hop voices ever so having them together mixed with Mikah 9 is just a wonderful thing to me. Plus anyone who has a group name that infers a ’poetry takeover’ is golden from the jump. This album is just straight westcoast underground rawness through and through. I like when albums have that ‘concert’ vibe. It’s like you listen to them and you can just picture being at some shady ass underground venue, surrounded by hip hop heads, getting your mind blown and wondering why you are one of the few lucky souls to be in on this magical moment in time. Yeah its like that.
