Review from www.spinemagazine.com - "I don't go for a lot of '80's stuff that I didn't pick up at the time, but this was a serious exception to the rule: as soon as I heard the first track I was hooked. It's typical of the late '80's Philly sound - this came out in 1988 - but this is a lot better than most other things. I mean, c'mon... check them out on the cover! They're wearing armour for God's sake! DJ Rocker and MC Grand-Pubah (nope, not THAT one...) rocked a hard electro/hip-hop sound with help from Dave (better known as LA Kid) from the Tuff Crew - and if you liked the 'Phanjam' LP that The Krowned ones shared with the Tuff Crew back in '87, then you'll love this album. High And Mighty dropped a tribute in more recent years to one of the big tracks on this album: 'B-Boy Document' ("Check it out hip-hoppers, get your tapedecks ready - for the next few minutes I'm a rock rhyme-steady", as sampled by Foreign Legion in recent years) . Definitely an underground classic track if ever you heard one. 'Paper Chase' gets things started off correctly with a PE-esque beat and plenty of hard scratching and stabs throughout and on 'Confetti Emcees' the laid-back beat sounds like it wouldn't be out of place on some of the early NWA material with a sparse guitar loop and a kicking drum pattern. 'Let The Party Rock' is as close to the Tuff Crew sound as you could go without actually wreckin' shop and entering the danger zone - another hard beat and slinky bassline prevails - while on 'Non Stop Hip Hop' things get a little catchier. You get two different remixes of 'Kick The Ball' (sadly, the original version on the 'Phanjam' album isn't here) on here as well... What can you say? A consistently quality album that doesn't let up throughout the duration. No love-ballad bullsh*t, no hip-house horsesh*t... simple and plain, no sh*t of any kind. You need this record."
