I picked up a copy of this album a few years back on the strength of the single "Mr. Wendal". The rest of the album didn't overly thrill me. Another of those ones where it's perfectly listenable, but not one that I tend to revisit much.
The book points out that this group of socially conscious rappers were one of the first big hip hop exports from Atlanta, infusing their music with a southern flavour and acting as inspiration, or opening the door for acts like Goodie Mob, Cee-Lo Green and Outkast (all of which I do enjoy quite a bit).
