Entertainment Reviews:
Rolling Stone - 12/23/93, p.156
"...Goofball motormouths, Pharcyde hail from L.A., but they're nobody's gangstas....they ride merrily roughshod over East and West dogma, creating their own fusion of punchy rhythm and loopy rhyme..."Spin - 1/93, p.65
Recommended - "...the Pharcyde are refreshingly not gangsta or pop, and they've got more skills than Young MC or Tone-Loc ever dreamed about....the Pharcyde boasts an encyclodpedic rhyme-style and a trunk full of beats....one of the most musically vivid hip hop records of the year..."Entertainment Weekly - 12/4/92, p.65
"...a freewheeling hip-hop cabaret, where a multitude of voices spin absurd images and sing amusingly off-key..." - Rating: BQ - 10/93, p.107
4 Stars - Excellent - "...The Pharcyde blend daffy De La Soul-ish invention with the teen-friendly humor of the Fresh Prince....the raps carry the most appeal..."The Source - 2/93, p.57
3.5 Stars - Very Good - "...The Pharcyde combine the sing-songy vocal tones of those down-to-earthlings who reminisced about Tennessee with an intense enthusiasm and energy akin to the Leaders Of The New School....packed with soulful pianos and organs....enjoy the bizarre ride..."Melody Maker - 8/14/93, p.31
"...Tall tales, obscene stories, satirical reveries and stoned speculation....The Pharcyde work in terms of controlled frenzy....Brilliant...."NME (Magazine) - 9/11/93, p.39
7 - Very Good - "...The Pharcyde use jazz samples and phat beats to the ultimate effect: to create their own sonic Utopia..."NME (Magazine) - 12/25/93, p.67
Ranked #39 in New Musical Express' list of 'The Top 50 LPs Of 1993' - "...a cartoon-strip of blunt-smoking antics, sexual innuendo and unashamed political incorrectness, crammed with infectious funky beats...."Paste (magazine) - "It's a record whose concerns are simple....But they are turned into something like art thanks to crackly, soulful production from J-Swift, Slimkid3 and L.A. Jay, and the arch, unusual way that the rappers attack each tune."
