"Deja Vu (Uptown Baby)" was nominated for a 1999 Grammy for Best Rap Performance By A Duo Or Group. MAKE IT REIGN marks the Columbia Records debut of rappers Lord Tariq & Peter Gunz, two rappers who met as high school rivals in the sport of rap. The duo first caught the attention of the mainstream when they paid tribute to their hometown and re-established the Bronx as the birthplace of hip-hop on "Deja Vu (Uptown Baby)". Their full length release, MAKE IT REIGN, allows Lord Tariq & Peter Gunz to deliver the hardcore street hits (check "We Will Ball") and blazing dance tracks (see "Startin' Somethin'") that they've been preparing for quite some time. Airtight!
Industry Reviews 3.5 Mics (out of 5) - ...effectively balances the hardcore street tracks with the more commercial material. Doubters beware, they're gonna be around next year. The Source (07/01/1998)
3 (out of 5) - ...MAKE IT REIGN roars out of the gate....bleeds with dexterous lyricisms while meshing with effortless fluency... Rap Pages (09/01/1998)
