Pete Rock is one of hip hop's golden five producers (others: Dr.Dre,Marley Marl,DJ Premier,RZA) who have one time or another been regarded as the best in the business. Before Premo and Dre, he was the man. This is his opus with the superb CL Smooth (where is he now?) doing most of the vocals. 'T.R.O.Y.' is one of thr greatest rap songs ever and defined Pete Rock's sound:horns blaring and thumping bass. MCs CL Smooth rips it all over the album and Grand Puba excels as guest on the De La Soul type vibed 'Skins'. 'For Pete's Sake' is the tune that really gets juices flowing and gets the otherwise mute Pete to contribute a blazing verse. 1991-92 was an era where talent mattered (not the marketing department)...and no one mattered more than Pete Rock.

4.0 out of 5 stars One Of Hip-Hops forgotten classics 20 May 2005
Format:Audio CD
Whilst these guys may not rank with Hip-Hops elite on paper they were one of the great things to come out of early 90s hiphop along with A Tribe Called Quest and Arrested Development. Whilst the world was going gangsta with Dre these guys kept it street on another level and this album is a real gem. Featuring the song They Reminisce Over You which is in my personal all time top 5 rap songs, this albums production values are great for its time with the help from Pete Rock. A must buy for serious Hip Hop heads
