Reception

WitWize of Rapzilla had the following to say about the album: "Overall I have to cast my lot for this disk. I had a few grievances, but through and through Sho Baraka puts his mark on the music scene with a hard hitting, non-compromising, non-cheesy, debut CD. The content keeps you thinking and the beats keep you bobbing. Respect to Reach Records for putting this out."^[1]
