"This Is It" is my fave here.b,121b,121b,121J-Live - Then What Happened?/b1b,121img src="http://www.amoeba.com/dynamic-images/blog/J-Live-Then_What_Happened_b.jpg"1b,121b,121decent effort from one of my favorite MC's. "The Upgrade" b/w "The Understanding" is a single from this and those are 2 of the strongest tracks IMO.b,121b,121b,121Common Market - Black Patch War/b1b,121img src="http://www.comfortcomes.com/images/commonmak.jpg"1b,121b,121very solid EP from this group.
