Rating: - Wake UP RAP FANS AND ARTISTS!!!
I am a 40 yr old rap fan and I'll be the first to admit I love some 'reality' rap (gangsta/hardcore). All forms of rap is needed to express varying points of view based upon your upbringing, but you are lying to yourself, to the fans , kids etc. if you think that postivity in music is not needed.
Groups like the legendary X CLAN were needed then and now maybe even more!!

You know an album is great when almost everyone gives it 5 stars in the reveiw. But 5 stars isn't enough for To the East, Blackwards. This is simply one of the greatest albums of all time.

This is definitely one of the best albums ever made and deserves more attention than it actually gets. You can't beat the mixture and the flow of their unique style. I know a couple of the group members passed, I hope they rest in peace.
Rating: - SISSAYYYY!
I used to dig this group. I had this on cassette and lost it - I refuse to buy it again - meaning, if I lost it, I probably don't need it again, unless someone wants to buy it for me! hint, hint!!!
