Industry Reviews
3 Stars - Good - ...tackles tough issues of infidelity, safe sex, and society's gender roles....a solid album filled with positive, pro-woman, pro-human lyrical politics...
The Source (04/01/1993)
2.5 Stars - Fair Plus - ...Monie Love is a good storyteller, an adept rapper and a mediocre songwriter...
Rolling Stone (06/10/1993)
...an admirable quotient of sass and a 9mm delivery...
Musician (05/01/1993)
4 Stars - Excellent - ...it's refreshing to hear a defiantly female perspective sticking up for herself....a powerful inducement to dispense with tawdry rap stereotypes...
Q (05/01/1993)
7 - Very Good - ...a very fine pop record....Monie grins devilishly and rattles through any number of subjects...
NME (04/03/1993)
...Marley Marl's Stax horn squeals, snapping beats, and skittery scratches make guest producer Prince seem modest... - Rating: B+
