In my humble opinion the HARDEST Instrumental without a sample in HipHop History, the percussion, baseline and horns on this record are NUTS! Never-mind the legendary Vocals with Outkast and Sleepy Brown!

SpottieOttie and Liberation have had a more profound effect on my mind and life than any other music ever produced. It's not even music... It's life that's been condensed down into an auditory wave length that crashes on my brain at the same same time as it cradles my soul. There are other things in this world that move me, but this entire album, from alpha to omega, moves me at the same time as it makes my roots grow. My Anthem.
