KRS-One continues a decline in the quality of its offering with the release of a new CD, two seasons after the last: the disc features music created exclusively by producers The Resistance and rap performed by Lawrence Parker together with hip-hop group The Footsoldiers. Four of the five members of this group get a spot on four different tracks. It's a socio-conscious album with hip-hop fillers, quite similar to his previous works, the lyrics aren't inspired and the quality of the musical carpets are gray, there are generic boom bap rhythms, in the happiest moments. With three quarters of an hour of material and fourteen tracks ranging from bland to bad, the tape, distributed by Antagonist Records, ends up being one of the most forgettable projects in KRS's discography, despite the praise it received from critics. 4/10.
