[edit] Reception

Professional reviews:

  • Rolling Stone (10/26/00, p.112) - 3 stars out of 5 - "The rare rap-metal act willing to admit that good times actually exist...Rap metal has found its Mötley Crüe".
  • Q (10/00, p.119) - 3 stars out of 5 - "Focused and mature...they possess the wherewithal to express their anger and frustration musically."
  • CMJ (8/21/00, p.27) - "Weaves down-tuned guitars with booty-licious beats...and hardcore raps that are littered by more cussing than a sailor."
  • Melody Maker (8/26/00, p.59) - 4 stars out of 5 - "Brilliant, about as black as this pimp-rock is gonna get, hip-hop credible in a way no one in the field has been since Urban Dance Squad...it's a great album".
