5.0 out of 5 stars Brutally Raw. . ., December 10, 2001

On Mentally Disturbed Ward 21 has easily managed to put together one of the hardest hitting, rawest dancehall albums ever. While putting together such an album, they've also managed to create on of the best dancehall albums in a long time as well. The entire album with the exception of the very slack interlude is awesome. My favorite cuts are Pain 21st Century, The Illness, Don't Push It, Eyes Wide Shut, Da Pum (Brain Damage), defintely Grimey, and I could go on and on and on. However, my absolute favorite track is President of Hoochie Land, and another cut called Ma Doggs is growing on me, and if you're an Elephant Man fan, he's also here on Anything-A-Anything. Overall, I'm in love with this album, if you like hip hop you'll probably like this album, it has that total feel on it, and certainly if love dancehall music, then this album is a must have, it ranks above the excellent T.O.K. as far as a group record is concerned. Go get it.

Ward 21 has truly outdone themselves on "Mentally Disturbed." This is possibly the greatest dancehall album ever made! The production and lyrics are ridiculoulsly superior to anything I've ever heard on ANY album! I (almost) consider it a sin to even attempt to choose a favorite track! Anyway, some of the best cuts are: "Brain Damage," "The Illness," "Ganja Smoke," "Bloodstain," "Grimey," the hard-hitting "Thugga," and the totally wicked "Don't Push It." However, the one track that is in a league of its own is "President of Hoochie Land." The beat is simply too sick to be described in words!!!

"Mentally Disturbed" is a bonafide classic that truly outshines ALL of its contemporaries. Ward 21 is undoubtebly an innovative, top notch dancehall group, especially "Suku" who absolutely annihilates every track he spits on! If you are sick and tired of the overcommercialized, no-talneted rap industry, and are ready and willing to evole to new heights of perfection, then I highlly reccomend that you add this masterpiece to your music collection! COP IT RIGHT NOW!!! Peace out.
