Really this album cool but it's the same T-bone we know and respect some what but the funk thing I'm feelin, the history track is nice, and blazin' mics the ablum is not bad but I expected more.

Having followed T-Bone's career from Redeemed Hoodlum to GospelAlphaMegaFunkyBoogieDiscoMusic...I have to give him his propers for tight production and flows for the most part. However, what really weighs on this release, and on his first releases, is his tendency to mimic, rather outright BITE concepts and lyrics from secular hip hop artists. For instance, on Redeemed Hoodlum and Hoodlum's Testimony he's doin' Cypress Hill, on Hoodlum's prayer he's doin' a lil 2Pac & Method Man, on Last Street Preacha he's doin' his own thang, but on GAMFBDMusic, he's bitin' Snoop from start to finish. Now I love my brother-in-Christ all the way, and I acknowledge the fact that he's one of holy hip hop's pioneers and one of it's hottest lyricists...however, it's because he's so unique and so skilled that I have to come down on him a lil for goin' Christian Snoop on e'rybody. Another sure shot for the speakers, and funky out this world, but his most original works to date are on The Last Street Preacha and even on the one joint he did for the Hero:The Rock Opera soundtrack(Raised In Harlem). To Bonie Bone: Let God Use You & BE YOU!

T-Bone's back, this time with something a little more funky than before. A very consistent record, seeing as he works with his production partner "Chase" for most of the record. Unfortunately, alot of the record is far too monotonous to be fully appreciated. His decision to perform his own BGV's for most of the record really hurts him, esp on "Can't See Us", "Still Preachin'", "Rhyme Skillz" and worst case on "Our History". Though a few West Coast classics are delivered - "Dippin", "Pop ya collar" and "Welcome to California". His decision to work with KRS-1 on the title cut is no doubt the low point on the record. The cut "Our History" gives props to christian rap's elders (Steven Wiley, SFC, PID, JC crew, D-Boy, IDOL King etc). Wish he included ETW, Transformation Crusade, Washington, Tru $ U, JC & The Boyz etc, still, a decent track. Overall: DISSAPOINTING FOR A TRUE VET LIKE THE BONEY BONE.

T-Bone has done it again. This latest release is good stuff. The Last Street Preacher will aways be tuff to beat but this comes awfully close. The only problem with it is it doesnt have enough tracks on it, so it leaves you thristy for more. I only give it 4 stars instead of 5 because the record could use a couple more songs glorifying the Master. Nevertheless the king of gospel hip hop still rules. I read a couple reviews giving this record a 1 star and a 2 star. I don't know what plantet these guys live on or what they expect. One review says T is not original enough and comes down on him for biting on other rappers; but please, be serious. Even Snuopp Dog got and gets his influence from others. The whole hip hop game is like any other music genre, it's one big circle, there are no pure originals. who's copying who? Everyone is biting each other, to include Dr Dre. But you must admit there is one thing T has that is hard to match: there are precious few who can flow as fast and as clear as the Boney Bone. As soon as you can but this.

I'm pretty sad to see the way the album turned out to be, T-Bone definitly got skillz but this should have been alot better, He was biting alot from Snoop & E-40. there was only 2 really good tracks in this Album "Blazin Mic's" is lyricily insane and "Gospel Alpha Mega...." feat. Krs One is just a masterpiece. other then that well.... it's not worth the [$$] (sorry T-bone Fans)

I don't know, it just seems like T-Bone has so much talent, but he kind of keeps doing the same CDs with different titles. I know he added all that disco funk to this CD. But when it's all said and done, it's the same old T-Bone. It's an okay CD, but if you're looking for a really good T-Bone CD, get "The Last Street Preacher". "Grammatical Revolution" and "Art of Translation" by Grits are also good.

This cd is pretty tight but I like 5 and 10 better then all of the other ones and for all of you that don't know his web site it's Http://www.houseoftbone.com/

Don't know why some are dissing this album, its all gold baby. T-bone and the ORC lay it down. Just get it you'll be listening to it many times over.

This CD is pretty bad. I think it is a waste of money. I bought it when i first started listening to christian music and getting away from secular music. Even then I was like what in the world is this? THe lyrics lack taste and is not representing jesus, god, or his word the way I thought it would. Its basically secular music that is cheap with no cuss words and a shout out here and there to god. Thats it!!

Mix Alpha Classic Funk with a little 'word' and you get an mildly entertaining CD.
