After listening to this cd I was totally amazed. Little T brings true hip hop back with the cd. The music on the whole cd is perfect. There are a couple of songs that are not very good but the other songs make up for it. Best songs on this cd are Fome is Dape, Immune, J, Guidance Counselor, and Deadman. I read other people comparing him with Eminem(which I hate) and they are totally different artists with totally different ideas. Eminem is just about yelling and screaming and killing his wife while Little T is about funny songs, clever lyrics, and what rap music should really be about. If you like Bloodhound Gang you will love this cd. GET IT NOW.

A fun and powerful debut from this DIY duo. A fresh sound highly influenced by old-school hip-hop, this record is an engaging and well-conceived blend of P.E., Run DMC and De La Soul, but with a uniquely 90's edge. Producer One Track Mike clearly knows his way around a drum machine (not to mention nylon-stringed guitar, fretless bass, and just about every other live instrument you hear) while Little T's alternately thought-provoking ("Sycamore Trees") and hilarious ("Immune") lyrics are always unpredictable and literate. And in addition to his fly MC skillz, T has the knack for creating grotesquely memorable choruses ("If I Had Wings", "Guidance Counselor") as well as knowing when to appropriate a classic obscurity, as with his use of Donovan's "Season of the Witch" in "Sammy." As if that wasn't enough, you also receive a great cameo from Slick Rick (anyone remember "La-Di Da-Di"?) as well as a guest turn from live bandmate Shank Bone Mystic, on a soul number so authentic that you'll swear it's a cover. Don't forget to check out the prophetic hidden track (recorded and released indie-style in '99), beginning at the six-minute mark of track 16. Fome is here.

Such a fun cd! I loved shaniqua the video and for years I couldnt find the cd. Finaly when i went on vacation in florida i found the cd in the virgin record store in down town disney. I couldnt believe it when i found it and i listened to it the rest of my vacation! a well worth cd for anyone who liked shaniqua!

Most people got a hold of this after hearin the shaniqua track but don't even consider sleepin on the rest of the album. The album in a few words is really well produced, has creative lyrics, and definitely maintains a genuine hip hop influence. If your hungry for some hidden gems look no further.

Little T and One Track Mike ROCK. While One Track Mike laces the tracks will creative, upbeat funky rhythms and soulful bass, Little T provides incredibly clever, well-written, and often times hysterical lyrics. The silly rhymes and catchy hooks make this a great album. I can't wait for their next album - and if you check their website, you'd know it should be out in the next few months!

It don't get no better than this!
I havent heard music this good since that time I woke up in the dentist chair and Red Hott Chili Peppers was on the radio!
Not only are the lyrics just insanely smart, funny, and telling it like it is.
But cha gotta give up for the bass guitarist, I never heard anyone hit the strings like that Before. He was just amazing, most likely the greatest to ever pick up that fine instrument.
There going to the top, you better watch out for them!
O yea how can I forget, a track featuring ''The Ruler'', Yup Slick Rick himself, need I say more. Nope.

one of the funnyest soundtracks ever! and also just a great album.

Man the other peeps on this page is harsh shaniqua is a sweet song.Most of the other songs is wack dough

what did eminem start, sounds like this should have been d12, what is this this cd sounds like it was made back in 1991, i see why shaniqua moved out.pass this by unless you want to hear someone sounding slim shady's cousin.

First of all, in order to have any credibility, Little T needs to change his name to "Lil' T." Being articulate gets you nowhere on the street, where i'm sure Little spends much of his time, "hanging out" and "pretending to be a pot-head." The antiquated use of the phrase "shut up, Beavis" is also most distressing. Young T compounds his offenses against taste with each track, delving deeper and deeper into the nether regions of wackness. He reveals to the listener the raw passion and angst that can only be developed through a long, hard adolesence of video games and talking about, but not actually getting, laid. I'm sure that not ALL of his boasting is false though. For example, he probably actually HAS consumed beer before, i'll give him that much credit. Did i mention his lack of anything resembling lyrical skill? He's like the suburbs' answer for Nate Dogg. Thank God this is Little T's last album.
