This is a great example of art being used to bring awareness and hopefully bring about social change. More then 60 artist have been called together for this project which addresses everything from Mumia to the building of Prisons to killings by cops. Its a great mixture of Spoken Word and Hip Hop. Most of the tracks are designed to be listened to.. You won't finda lot of club or dance cuts.. But you will find a lot of insight and heartfelt emotion..

7.0
Rap/NY/UndI listened to this album and asked the following questions.. Can this group get busy on the mic? The answer is yes.. They ain't no rakim, but they can flow?.. Next question..Would I buy this album??? No.. Reason being? the beats are soft.. This album suffers from wack production.. Couldn't really appreciate all it had to offer... Although the guys can flow, they offered nothing ground breaking.. Hence the album was just ok...
