This album has it all. I mean great beats and melodies, great lyrical skils by both emcees Tip and Phife, and overall good production make this one of the est albums in the decade. As for the best of Tribe...I don't know. But this is great effort non-the-less. As when I mentioned the good production I not only met the songs themselves and sequencing and mixing and all that crap, i also meant the funny little computer voice u hear throughout the album linking sings together, so this is their actual first "concept album" but it works!
