"Da God" - Fast drums and hardcore MCs. I love it. Buckshot, Sadat X, and Sean Price are a heavy hitting trio.

"Oops Upside Your Head" - Steele of Smif-N-Wessun gives some backup on this track. Oops Upside Your Head, just as the title is, is a pretty silly track. Expect to hear punchline after punchline after punchline.

"Church" - What's this? If it weren't for the drums appearing a couple of seconds after the song started, I would have swore this was a west coast song. There is somewhat of a g-funk feeling to this. Rock comes back to form with Sean Price as Heltah Skeltah. The Loudmouf Choir is also featured, to give us a singing chorus.

"King Kong" - Brilliant! Khrysis has given Price an absolutely brilliant beat! This is hardcore MCing to the fullest. This is most defiantly a key track.

"One" - As noted before, Price gives us a kind of Ghostface sound. It's been noted that this track is sort of reminiscent to Ghostface Killah's track, "titled One," from his Surpreme Clientele CD. Great track nonetheless.

"You Already Know" - Skyzoo guest appears on this, and to be honest, I think this cut would have done better without Price. It kind of sounds like this was only meant for Skyzoo and Price just got thrown onto it, but the track is still so-so.

"Director's Cut" - Khrysis sure knows how to impress. Price spits two bars with breaks in between them. Once again, punchline after punchline. Too bad this cut is less than 2 minutes long.

"Let It Be Known" - Man, 9th was doing so good until this track. It seems like Price's and 9th Wonder's chemistry has faded more downwards from track to track. Phonte of Little Brother gives listeners a great chorus, but it just isn't enough to save the entire song. Sean doesn't sound all the well on this.

"Hearing Aid" - This is the last of the 9th Wonder beats. It got slightly better here. Chaundon and Sean spit some ill lyrics for listeners.

"Mess You Made" - And we come to the closing track. Like most underground CDs, this is where the most powerful and realest lyrics are put in. Lyrics are deep on this one, as well as the beat and feeling.

Yes, Sean Price has impressed me. This CD is highly recommended for backpackers and hardcore fans alike. Jesus Price Supastar is a hard and grisly album that should be owned by every underground hip-hop head who ever enjoyed the likes of artists such as Black Moon, Mobb Deep, or Wu-Tang Clan.
