I actually took a chance on this CD when I bought it. I saw it sitting on the new release rack, and had no idea who it was. I had never even heard this dude’s name. But I looked at the tracklist and I saw guest appearances from Pigeon John, Playdough and RedCloud. I said “Well, it must not be bad if it has guests like that.” So I bought it, went out to my car and popped it in the stereo. What did I get? Gold. There’s a mixture of acoustic, singy-type songs and an array of fantastic flows. And Heath McNease did both very well. His singing voice is soothing, and his rapping is skilled. What strikes me as odd is that on this very website, this album was only given 3 stars. I mean, we all have our different tastes in music and different ideas about different artists. But I still wondered why it was given so low of a rating. It’s definitely a good addition to your collection if you like hip hop. If you don’t have it, consider it officially recommended by JfH, and you can also sit back and wait for his newest album to come out (hopefully sometime very soon). – Scott Fryberger
