Producers: DJ Mighty Mi, The Alchemist, Reef. Engineers: DJ Mighty Mi, Kieran Walsh, Elliot Thomas. Home Field Advantage is Mr. Eon's and DJ Mighty Mi's first full-length album, and it's solid. Songs like "Top Prospects" and "B-Boy Document '99" will please many fans of East Coast hip-hop. Unfortunately, other songs like "Hot Spittable," "Weed, and "The Meaning" are kind of boring and seem to be missing something. One thing this album isn't missing is guests. High & Mighty are joined by Pharoahe Monch, Evidence, Defari, Mos Def, Mad Skillz, Eminem, Cage, Kool Keith, and more. Most tracks have one or two guest helping High & Mighty out. While the people that they get are good, it would be nice to hear more songs with just Eon. Also, after hearing the intro, "Tip Off Time," it makes you want another track just of Mighty Mi rocking the turntables. ~ Dan Gizzi
