Brilliant but flawed
Saian Supa Crew have got to be one of the finest hip hop outfits on the planet. Insane flows, brilliant ragga-fuelled beats and superb, inventive beatboxing all combine to make them a world class act. This "International Version" of their second album, X-Raisons, contains the biggest hits off the album, plus some excellent collaborations with International artists such as Roots Manuva and Kymani Marley. So why only 2 stars? Well sadly they let themselves down by parroting Buju Banton's offensive "Boom Bye-Bye" on the collaboration with Grand Puba. If there's a difference between racist bigots and homophobic bigots, I can't see it. It's a shame that the same can't be said of Saian Supa Crew.

It's a great disappointment that a crew I had long respected turn out to be so small-minded and bigoted.

x many reasons to buy it
if you like early wu; redman; ludacris; busta etc then you'll like this even if you can't understand a single word. that said it does have some english speaking featured artists on it including britain's best roots manuva on 'hey yo my man'. it's also got some of the best beats i've heard all year especially the kick off track 'the beat'. similar in sound to red and meth's 'blackout'. just buy it.
