Just a lil background info:

 

The Tipping Point is actually a book, Im guessing that the roots named the album after. Check it out, its a good read. Basically its about cause and effect with trends; whether fashion, drug addiction, even certain diseases and suicide.

I was going check it out today....the single they have out right now isn't to bad....after about 1999....I am always leary to put up new material---however, the new Pete Rock-Soul Surviver II is good....C.L. is on 3 tracks....

its good, but its definately not as good as things fall apart. they do a lot more sampling than they have in the past, which kind of sucks if your someone like myself who digs the fact that they use thier own instruments. the cd lacks any truly catchy beats , but it definately has its moments. as far as good tracks Why is good lyrically but the hook is a bit too boys 2 men for me. dont say nothign is good. star is cool in a rap band covering a funk song kind of way. stay cool is good. im sure there are more but im tired of typing. overall worth picking up if you a fan.

Not to be off topic, but has anyone heard the 28 days later soundtrack?... They have some of the best music in that movie i have heard in a while.... I recognized a few artists but can anyone drop a scoop on that? i think i might purchase it..
