most of the critics feed more to a vicious cycle. one mag says something is good and the people read it, they follow so other mag jump on the train and run wit it, so more people read the same review from diff magazines, and feel its a mojority vote on whats good in music.

The Roots come along hit us with Real and Honest art. but its not good enought cuz its not what the masses are told to like. but that one person.

thats gets ate me i love the whole roots collection, i know i'm bias but the reviews that are done here on the site to me seem to give honest unbias opinion on a record.

this is my take on it but as for the reviews they don;t mean nothin when you got the backing of loyal fans ( who do buy two albums to pass on to others)
