Very interesting document here which often gets left in the dust compared to known heavyweights of the era. The closest analogy here is obviously the Red Hot Chili Peppers – there was a familiarity between both groups – and by this point in their career, they had ballooned to their biggest line-up ever, which gives the disc a bit of a P-Funk feel, along with a noticeable live feel with the inclusion of these snippets of tracks which sound like they were recorded at various performances. Like with classic P-Funk, there is a serious strain of social messaging which runs throughout the disc, but as a contrast there is quite the party vibe at work as well, especially on tracks like "Naz-Tee May'en" and the heavy-ska of "Housework". Still, it’s hard to deny the meat of this CD lies with its’ more harrowing statements. Like the twin bill of “Junkies Prayer” and “Pray to the Junkiemaker”, where the group updates the old-school poetry of the Last Poets, only using the crack epidemic as their chilling theme.
