Editorial Reviews 3 Mics - Good - ...Sadat gives you the groove-riding flow he's famous for--his verbal dexterity being choice when production is a simmering mid-tempo....The crisp mixture of jazz and soul...[is] really what gets this project open... The Source (08/01/1996)
8 (out of 10) - ...Sadat continues with his blue-ribbon tradition of innovative styles and groundbreaking production....this album is the phenomenal solid foundation that Sadat is more capable of building his own career upon. Rap Pages (07/01/1996)
...a concept LP that actually works, Wild West beatnik lyrics and party-down funk combining like a dangerous new cocktail you know will have you floorbound... Melody Maker (08/03/1996)
6 (out of 10) - ...Collaborations (both on the mike and in production)...turns tracks like `Smoking On The Low' and `Open Bar' into suitably lurching, red-eyed vignettes on matters of the low-down and just slightly dirty variety... NME (08/24/1996)
...a solid, head noddin' set of 15 jammies that roll and rumble over a pastiche of dark jazz and grit-caked blues-funk samples... Option (11/01/1996)
