De La switches up the sound a little on this one. Its much more accessible than their other 3 albums. Don't get me wrong, I love Three Feet High, De La is Dead, and Bulhoone Mind state, but on this on they kick a little sumpin' that I think the average mainstream listener will find easier to get into. So, if you're trying to get into De La, this isn't necessarily typical of the flavor they flip, but is solid anyway and a reliable buy. It also showcases a young and hungy Mos Def, and I feel he's worth the cost of admission alone.
