5.0 out of 5 stars Former Company Flow member expands on where he left off, March 30, 2003

Who knew that the incredible, combination fo El-P, Bigg Jus, and Mr. Len the Space Ghost, or Company Flow, would split in 1999. El eventually went on to own his own record company, Definitive Jux, while Bigg Jus was relatively unheard of until he released Gaffling Whips ep. With an LP soon to be released, on this album, Jus has displayed his authentic and witty, truly New York, lyricism prevalent on Company Flow's earleri releases (Funcrusher Plus). The sounds of this album shadow those of Company Flow in their gritty, hardcore, accentuation of traditional hip-hop blends, but also mixes that up with some un-traditional experimentations, similar in fact to the production present on any Def Jux release. Overall, the album reflects Jus's lyrical abilities and love of the underground

Awesome songs, awesome album. Every song is different and very engaging. The production is very creative...the background changes so many times during some songs. At first its a little hard to adjust to...but after hearing them a few times it totally fits in. The lyrics are smart and delivered in a unique style. Excellent album...awaiting more from Bigg Jus! Hopefully he'll work with Prefuse 73 a little in the future...curious as to what that would sound like.

With a price as low as one cent, and these amazingly complex orchestrations, you'd be stupid to not buy this CD.
