Notwithstanding being widely praised and having two singles that graphed on the Announcement Hot 100 ("Who Got da Props?" and "I Got Cha Opin"), the collection sold inadequately, and is regularly neglected for consequent East Drift collections, for example, Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers), Illmatic, Fluid Swords, Prepared to Kick the bucket, Just Fabricated 4 Cuban Linx..., and The Notorious.
