First, let me apologize for the crappy album art. The digital camera is acting like it doesn't want to work, so I can't take a picture of mine and everything on the 'net looks like shit, so...
Poor Righteous Teachers front man Wise Intelligent kind of caught me by surprise the first time I ever heard him. I was on the blue line listening to my walkman when "Rock This Funky Joint" came blasting through the earphones -- Poor Righteous Teachers on the radio...remember that? Remember how you could turn on the radio and still hear Wu Tang, EPMD, or Del The Funky Homosapien? Variety -- it's sorely missing from the radio today. That's all I'm tryin' to say. Shit is like a foreign concept nowadays. Go figure... *sigh* Anyway, I thought dude [Wise] was crazy dope at the time and I'd check for any PRT/Wise material every chance I got. Well, you can imagine my excitement when I found out Wise was droppin' a solo joint on the masses back in '96. Thing about it though, even though I love this album, I found that it wasn't on the level of any previously released Poor Righteous teachers material. It didn't have the same energy, in my opinion. It still makes for a good listen though. Enjoy.
