  I will get straight to the point in this review. MCs Prozack and Marc Stretch of Foreign Legion exhibit some of the best rhyming skills out there. Prozack is, in my opinion, equal with Marshal Mathers and Jin as the best non-black rapper. Some of his rhymes are pure genius: arrogant without taking himself seriously and naughty while never evil - in other words: playful. Marc Stretch too has the ability to get the crowd jumping. DJ Design is a master at selecting beats and tunes from his crates and the music on this album is varied - guitars, to electric bleeps and so on.

Standout tracks are Here we go again, How Do It Feel and Playtight. The other tracks are also top notch, but more party anthems. While the content involves without exception the rather unrevolutionary themes of girls, partying and getting wasted, it is delivered in such quality that this album deserves its 5 stars.

Please Foreign Legion...again? The fans are demanding a third record!
