First heard as a guest on Jeru The Damaja's album (The Sun Rises in the East), Afu-Ra acquired his fans through his 12" singles. "Whirlwind Through Cities" and "Defeat" are those such joints, but even on tracks, "D&D Soundclashquot" (featuring Cocoa Brovas) and "Equality" (featuring Ky-mani Marley), Afu can also throw in some Rasta flavor to add a different aspect to this album. Wu-Tang flavor can be heard on such tracks as "Big Acts Little Acts" (featuring GZA) and "Mortal Kombat" (featuring Masta Killa). He continues to keep it live with such tracks as "Monotony", "Headquarterz" (featuring Krumbsnatcha), and "Warfare" (featuring M.O.P.), giving the album a very different, harder sound. The only two flaws are tracks "Bring It Right" and "Calienta" because they seem to be more of a disruption in Afu album's flow, sounding more like it was produced from Afu's old label, Gee Street. Nevertheless, while he's still not as good an emcee as Guru and Jeru, Afu-Ra certainly can handle his own and produce an album that has all the right ingredients for an enjoyable sound.
