This album begins on an awkward note. The first song is a Love song that has little do with the concept of the album, but MC Lyte is nearly forgiven as she goes on to cover an impressive assortment of social themes over funky hip-hop beats. Her raps aren’t as impressive as she seems to think, but her Georgie story, about a friend who kills himself in a drunk-driving accident, is touching.
