...total failure. The band’s more zealous supporters will hail the album as yet another strong showing from the godfathers of modern dance music. Each track is a unique, vaguely interesting foray into synthesizers and beats—some even boast the accompaniment of Midas-touch producer Timbaland and pop-castrato Justin Timberlake.

As rap radio shows and records soared in popularity, Marley Marl became the archetype of the champion beatmaker for the “Juice Crew” of rappers centered on the Queensbridge projects.
