the "bonus song" starts at -4:44 on track 18

Edited 20 years ago

This Album Is amazing! it completly changed my whole perspective of how I look and listen to hip hop. All the tunes are quality in their own right. I love the fact that throughout the Album they use live instruments rather than it all being electronic as well.

Definatly recommend this to anyone who can appreciate music on any level.
