Grits--not only the future, but the present as well., October 23, 1999
By A Customer
In Grammatical Revolution, Grits has produced an artwork that stands out from anything else in the music world today. First off, every song on the album has a unique sound. The beats, the instruments, and the flow are all original. Second, the album is incredibly futuristic and visionary in its sound and makeup. It uses a huge variety of sound colors, instruments, and rhythms in such a way that it redifines what hip-hop is. Thirdly, Cofee and Bone are by far the most creative, versatile, and skilled rappers on the planet--that includes secular rappers. They weave poety, clever phrases, tongue-twisting tempo changes, and rhymes that amaze us with unprecedented creativity and skillfulness. However, the quality that I appreciate the most about Grits is their integrity. In Grammatical Revolution, they have constructed a work of art; an album that is more musical and true to the standards of their art form than any other rap album. It's clear that they aren't in the business for money, fame, or themselves. They make hip-hop in order to communicate with people and speak truth to them, and in doing so, they elevate hip-hop to its highest manifestation. Other artists take note: for the foreseeable future, Grits is and will be the standard by which all other rap artists are judged.

Grits rocks the Mic in Grammatical Revolution, March 1, 2001
By A Customer
If you like The Roots, Blacked Eyed Peas, and De La Soul, Then you will like Grits. Or if you are looking for some good underground rap that is not mainstream this is it. Grits Provides a positive lyrical content away from the sin filled and angry rap and hip hop we listen to today. people said that it couldn't be done mixing the gospel teachings with rap and hip hop but grits by far proves that wrong. You won't even notice that it is super christain you will be mesmerized by the phat beats and smoot rhymes that are produced by the group. There other Cd's Factors of the seven and mental releases and just as good. my favorite is factors of the seven. to sum it up grits is hip hop they are true mc's trying to get the positivity out of hip hop in this dark worl.

The New Kings of Hip Hop, September 21, 2000
This Grits album is a musthave!!! I have been impressed with Grits since I first heard a couple of their songs off their "Factors of the Seven" album, but when I purchased Grammatical Revolution, it definately gave some bang for the buck! See I was a big fan of Secular Rap/Hip Hop and Grits were the first Christan rappers I heard when I Gave my life to Christ, Yet this new album "grammatical Revolution" is one of the best ive ever heard. The First song that stood out to me was "They all fall down" which is a song that has been in my head for a while now! Yes, the lyrics are on point and the beats are off the hook, but the message is God sent. For any of you who are reading this review an are interested in Christian hip hop but not sure who the good artists are.. Check out the DJ Maj CD which features artists like (Grits, 4th Avenue Jones, Knowdaverbs, LA Symphony, and R&B Groups The Katinas and Out of Eden) -one & God Bless
