Album Notes Personnel includes: Chubb Rock, Grand Puba, FM, Poke, Kirk Gowdy, Red Hot Lover Tone, Rob Swinga, Kirk Pone (rap vocals); Deneen Lowe, Eric Milteer (vocals). After achieving commercial success thanks to the three hit singles from his 1991 opus, THE ONE, the oversized Brooklyn MC known as Chubb Rock released his fourth LP, I GOTTA GET MINE YO!, just a year later. Taking production credits alongside the Trackmasters, Chubb once again blends his signature brainy wordplay with an eclectic true-school production sound that flirts with R&B, funk, and soul. A collection of playful tracks that has the baritone mic ripper speaking on institutionalized racism ("The Hatred"), taking an unconventional approach to the back-to-Africa concept ("Black Trek IV: The Voyage Home"), and getting sensitive for the ladies ("I Don't Wanna be Lonely"), I GOTTA GET MINE YO! is exemplary of rap's early-1990s true-school era.
Industry Reviews ..Chubb Rock goes wild behind the mixing board...the Chubbster rides loopy, liquid sound waves that bedazzle and boom...[His] delivery remains passionate and playful, steady and distinct..
3.5 Stars - Good Plus - ..boasts many treats and new directions...a sound that runs the gamut from pure street, to disco, to R&B.. The Source (10/01/1992)
