The flava of '91, June 20, 2001
This review is from: To Whom It May Concern (Audio CD)
When I first heard Aceylone's "My Fantasy" back in early '92, i was like, what the funk is this? His fast rhymes and that weird reverberating noise that wonderfully resounds throughout the track kept me listening, till i finally realized I had to get the album. I always use My Fantasy when i'm DJing... "Every-ev-ev-every rapper in the house shut the funk up!" '91 was a great year, "All For One" by Brand Nubian and OK by Organized Konfusion stand out in my mind, along with this great effort....there is just something about this album that keeps you coming back for more..."Sunshine Men" speaks out to the wack MC's lacing tracks with wack beats...these boys can say this, because their rhymes/beats are definitely ill....the funk, is gonna hit ya, in '91...peace!

Second best album ever, October 1, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: To Whom It May Concern (Audio CD)
dang this thing was light years ahead of it's time, probably still is... Second only to A Book Of Human Language by Aceyalone in my opinion. Any head into just hip-hop should have this album. When you think back to 1991 (when tribe called quest was said to be on top of hip-hop)with all the simple lines(single syllable/word rhymes), there these emcees were spitting some thought-provoking verses with amazing rhyme schemes... pretty much inventing the quick so-called bone flow about 4-5 years before the majority of the population thought about it. That famous line people like to use: "If you don't have it you're sleeping (more so in a coma)" certainly apply's here. Project Blowed what's the code!

Music To My Ears, December 17, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: To Whom It May Concern (Audio CD)
One word to describe this album: wow. The eloquence and flow of these fellas is unbelievable, the lyrics just get better and better every time you hear it. This album also contains some of the funkiest beats to come out of 1991. If Intercity Griots was a great album, that makes this album indispensible to anyone who claims to be a hip hop head. BUY IT. If you like this album then you should check Buhloone Mindstate by De La Soul and the other Freestyle Fellowship l.ps.
