Only a few years ago Hip Hop purists may have felt superior listening to hard core while their less enlightened companions snacked on commercial rap. As Shaolin research began to point out the overwhelming benefits of raw production, true hip hop enthusiasts started turning back to traditional styles. Wu-Tang in particular, has been shown to myriad beneficial effects, from warding off ignorance and poverty to reducing the risk of incarceration and death.
the whole album replayable.
One of the hardest albums ever recorded, album is 4 stars off the bars alone. Classic swizz beats production on here. I don't know why it's been 12 years and there's still no new lp out. smh.
1 "Intro (Skit)" 2:45
2 "Fuck You" 4:07 (Classic. Duh, Jadakiss aired everyone out on this one) 5/5

I was disappointed in this album because of the beats. I haven't heard it in a long time. So i'm gonna listen to it again but i remember not liking it that much. I'm surprised they haven't released anymore group albums.
Nah man the beats are fire, Swizz came through with heat, now he gave Drag-On straight up throwaway beats for his debut lol

Classis album status almost immediately. Swizz makes garbage music but not on this, he laced the album real well. Hardbody murder music at it's finest. Perfect album title.
classic album i agree with 1 and 1a
this shit is legendary
I agree, IMO this album doesn't come close to the first one. I thought a lot of the hooks on this were kindof corny too... Money Power is classic in my book tooOriginally Posted by CharlesJones
What?! The first album is boring as shit, Their still working on their craft. Diddy is written all over that shit, you can tell they weren't really feeling it. It's only about 5 hot tracks on it.

I agree with Hollow Dartz that We Are The Streets is better than the first album. They got a couple of songs on the first album i like such as Bitches From Eastwick. I like that beat and i like the lyrics that have them describing the women they dealt with. LOL@the clothes they wore on Money Power And Respect album cover and Jadakiss glasses are funny hahahahahahahahaha. LOL@Mad Rapper skit on the first album.
I remember strongly disliking this album b/c of the beats. I'm not favorable of Swizz Beats shit.
Thank you KJR. Finally somebody that agrees with me. Swizz Beats is a overrated producer and his beats aren't that good. I've seen a few new Lox videos on Youtube recently and I like what I saw. I saw a video they did about New York and I really liked it. Very good video. Do they have a new album out or are they only doing mixtapes? I don't think they're gonna release anymore group albums.
