Critical reception

Template:Music ratings The Los Angeles Times wrote: "Turning to his roots—hard-hitting jazz-funk beats, proud urban poetry, the righteous fire of both the pulpit and the Panthers and an abundance of sports metaphors—he's pounded together a defiantly old-school document that seeks answers for the present in the past."[3] The Toronto Star said that Chuck "sounds in dire need of inspiration, having descended to the depths of rapping about talk shows and hyping his personal 1-800 message line."[4] USA Today determined, that "with hard-driving beats that recall old school soul and funk and a voice that many vocalists would envy, Chuck D is as provocative as ever."[5]
