This album is INSANE. How this wasn't released? No effing clue man. This album is stylish, smooth and tasteful. This album will never be replicated or topped, it is that unique. Every track simply hits when it has to hit. This album has this aura of soulful/jazzy ethereal sounds that simply cannot be described. This album is a killer, I'm telling you. Pete Rock delivers the goods 4 real in both of these (The Original Baby Pa). Amazing production mixed with amazing lyrics that are super memorable, fresh and cool. If you see this vinyl in somebody's collection you already know they mean freaking business.
Possibly the best Hip Hop album never released and one of the best you will ever hear, everybody can fall in love with this. Buy this album as a gift and change somebody's life.
We have to thank Vinyl Digital for making this album and The Original Baby Pa (also pretty amazing) justice once and for all with these super well made and amazing sounding 140-180g vinyls.
PD: Crossing my fingers for a reissue of Soul Survivor.

I've been a long time fan of this album, and I was so glad to see that there was finally an offical LP release.
The production work is in my opinion simply outstanding. The work contains a mix of funky bass rythms and loads of soul. Although it is a matter of taste, I find the lyrical work outstanding. The combined efforts of Grap Luva and Rob O. make it a joy to listen to.
To anyone who's a fan of soulful beats and conscious lyrics I highly recommend this album.
