Before giving this a listen the only song I had heard from Naughty by Nature was O.P.P. I'm really glad I gave this a listen. This is right up my alley when it comes to old school hip hop. I love the constant onslaught of rhymes over the old school funky beats.

A lot of good songs here but I'll highlight City of Ci-Lo and Klickow-Klickow specifically for the beats. Both have a more dissonant sound which I really like.

I wasn't a fan of a few of the cheesier choruses. Especially Slang Bang. That one got a little annoying. But I get that their just trying to grab people's attention with some of those.

Shout Out felt like it didn't belong but I appreciate what they were trying to do there. I can't complain too much about it since they still put out nearly an hour of rapping if you skip that one.

Overall a great album and I plan to check out more of their work now.
