100Dash and the Keys score an undeniable win by keeping the samples homemade and the production pared down, and by hand-picking collaborators who know how to sink into a groove.

80A hip hop album of raw and unusual playfulness. [Jan 2010, p. 118]
-
60For a first try, the Black Keys do a decent enough job providing the backbone upon which this collection of rappers can spit and strut, but the actual musical output is overshadowed by the concept of this collaboration, and that is Blakroc's biggest problem.

D.P.8Good Album, although some of the songs are lacking. Its a good combination of blues-y rock and rap. Coochie wasn't great though.
