Sad this thread has been up for over 30 mins, and not ONE response. But yeah, this album is CLASSIC. shyt is like the original Black Panther Party's theme music. I don't think there is a song on there I don't like.

I liked the RGB tape better tho...

Probably Lord Jamar's second best contribution to hip hop was discovering them

 

[Hypris]

Great album. The production, the lyrics, the substance. Dead Prez doesn't get enough respect.

Almost went vegan after hearing Be Healthy when I was younger

 

[Long Live The Kane]

Fukked with this, the 2nd album and the first couple mixtapes extra tough...they had a solid ass run

 

[NotaPAWG]

This is the album that really got me into hip hop heavily, tbh. I listened to the essential big names like pac, big, nas etc and g unit and dipset..but this really made me indulge once a friend showed me this.

I know thats weird cause Im white..but this album opened the doors to me learning about white supremacy and how fukked up the system is.

That excerpt at the beginning of Police State had a huge impact on me, its engrained into my memory word for word.

 

[2 Up 2 Down]

Happiness is still one of my favorite tracks to this day.

ready to die sounds dated as fukk.

They'll be able to tour forever off the strength of this album. If you haven't seen Dead Prez in concert go do it.

 

[Taadow]

I liked this because it didn't lose the music in the message.

In a strange way, I knew in the moment that there would never be a mainstream album like it again.

"Mind Sex" is a top-20 beat in the common era also.

 

[Czar]

Used to bump this one all the time in the whip. Whole album is classic tbh.
