Entertainment Reviews:

Spin - 1/99, p.91
Ranked #16 on Spin's list of "Top 20 Albums of '98."
Entertainment Weekly - 4/24/98, p.78
"...Guru's gravel-mouthed admonitions to wannabe MCs and first-hand insight into court battels are as evenly matched to DJ Premier's coveted turntable orchestrations as Satchmo's voice was to his horn..." - Rating: B+
CMJ - 1/11/99, p.4
"...Observe and acknowledge the way true hip-hop was meant to sound - raw yet refined, with beats powerful enough to blow your back out at the drop of a needle..."
The Source - 5/98, p.145
4.5 Mics (out of 5) - "This is the record that hip-hop purists who have long been tired of the artform's commercial tendencies and lack of creativity have been savoring for....MOMENT OF TRUTH delivered the antidote to hip-hop afflictions..."
Melody Maker - 4/11/98, p.44
"...Gang Starr come over like the wise old uncles who've updated their sound, but softened it with interspersed bursts of swingbeat."
NME (Magazine) - 4/11/98, p.39
8 (out of 10) - "...Rapper Guru and DJ Premier's reunification finds them returning refreshed to their original blueprint, making peerless hip-hop of class and quality..."
