    The signature wordplay and musical ingenuity are as strong as ever here... but they're rolling with a far harder edge than you remember.

    Their second album will thrill fans who stopped clocking rap a decade ago and heads who never let go.

    What can I say about PIN. I think it's an absolute classic. I listen to at least some of this album every day. I can't imagine what J5 could've possibly done to make this album any better. "A Day At The Races", "High Fidelity", and "Sum of Us" are particularly sick. Nu-mark and Cut Chemist spin some of the most bitchinest beats I've ever heard. Cut Chemist is very missed. Great Album.… Expand

    Solid album from Jurassic 5. My only complaint is Power In Numbers doesn't feel like a progression from their previous work, just a reaffirmation of their sound.… Expand
