I truly wish Tame and El were still together, but that's what happens when money messes up the chemistry (Pete Rock & CL Smooth).  This album was one of the most slept-on albums of 96-97, and one of the most hottest.  While most rap acts of that time were buying into the dawn of the "Jiggy" and "Shiny Suit" era, Tame and El stayed to their name being true "Artifacts" of hiphop with this album.  Enlisting underground sensations like: Shawn J. Period, Lord Jamar, Showbiz, Mr. Walt, and Baby Paul, and matched with ill lyrics this album was and still is proof of what a "HipHop" album is supposed to sound like.  I any and all true hiphop heads to cop this album.
