    This one of the best rap albums ever. Grossly underrated. Mix is quiet but a good stereo fixes that

      I found my copy popped quite a bit on Side A even after a deep clean. Overall, it is a little quiet, but still a decent pressing. I'd still maybe seek out the VMP copy

            Take it from someone who owns the original and bought this one this is definitely a better master... The old one just like most of RZA's production and mixing had sound dips..this one is the best print that you can buy of tical

              This is a really nice pressing. The artwork/packaging is really nice, vinyl is great quality and sounds awesome.

                Sounds beautiful all round, as if it was an original press

                  I bought this through amazon. 1st one came warped and unplayable. I sent it back and received another one with a tiny slight little warp to it. I kept it and it plays fine. Dont know if the warpage happened at the pressing plant or where ever it was stored. Sounds good just like the 90s did.

                    Never listened to the original pressing, but this one sounds very good and it might just be the thickest record that I own.
