Release Symptomatic of a Greater Ill was recorded between 1995 and 1997 for Loud Records. However, the closing of the label shelved the album for years. In 2006, it was released on Anticon. Critical reception Bram Gieben of The Skinny gave the album 5 stars out of 5, calling it "[a] lost classic, resurfacing at just the right time." Marisa Brown of AllMusic said: "It's a great record, thoughtful and aware yet still laid-back and fun, and though it took a while to be released, it's better late than never to hear this, to be reminded of everything that hip-hop can be, both in the past and hopefully, continuing on into the future." Mike Schiller of PopMatters called it "one of 2006's absolutely essential hip-hop releases". Track listing Personnel Credits adapted from liner notes. Kev Roc – vocals G.M.
