I honestly never got this critique, and honestly think it fucked up Ras' whole career. Like what kind of beats did people expect? Shit was the exact type of beats for the lane of spitter he was. I mean "Jack Frost" which sampled Nat King Cole was his set-up song (the one that got him noticed). People were looking for club bangers? Did folk really want Ras Kass over Dr. Dre beats. And you see how that worked out.

Kinda raises another point, on the subtle way in which a trend which had nothing to do with the artist in question radically changed who they were. I mean yeah Coolio did exec the album (still blows my mind) but is that what fools expected? Ras Kass over Fantastic Voyage?
