DavidBurden's Full Review: Expansion Team [PA] by Dilated Peoples
MCs Evidence and Iriscience really have it worked out now. Their lyrics have improved greatly since The Platform, and so it would seem has the production. Alchemist lends his hand on some tracks, and you have DJ Babu to thank for the rest. His scratches and all round 'deck presence' seem to rub off perfectly on this top CD, and there are of course the Liks who make their mandatory appearance. The backing music has, again, improved immensely which is certainly saying something given the sheer quality of The Platform. Luckily, there are very few skits to waste 'CD time' and those that appear are from the Likwit Crew, and as such have skills worthy of the album (Defari and Phil Da Agony). I thought Xzibit might have condescended to appear, but it seems that he feels he's outgrown Dilated (not to their detriment it must be said). I won't hesitate to recommend this to any Hip Hop fan, especially those who enjoy being able to just let a CD run from beginning to end without having to skip tracks that grate. Go get.
