Soldierz At War - S.A.W. is a Chi-Town jewel produced by members of the Nation of Islam and FOI members (Fruits of Islam) in Chicago, Illinois. This album was not sold in stores but on neighborhood street corners. This album was sold along with the The Nation newspaper and those delicious baked bean pies which were home-cooked. The S.A.W. album was a success on the Chicago streets! It sold over 100,000 units alone in physical format back in 2000!
S.A.W. is a great conscious hip hop album with no profanity or obscene language considered to be offensive. Its lyrics are both politically and socially conscious Soldierz At War is more focused on this album than many of their other albums.
Big Ed from No Limit Records, Killah C, Newsense (the girl from Psycho Drama), and Mo Mike are the most featured artists on the album. Killah C and Mo Mike are featured all over the place on this Soldierz At War album.
The track Soldierz At War is a funky ghetto tech rap song that features Big Ed from No Limit Records. This track itself is the highlight track. Soldierz At War is about being focused both politically and socially conscious speaking. Its lyrics are very insightful.
Miss You Homie is a sad heartfelt rap song dedicated to the dead homies that passed on. The song itself has a blues feel to it.
As-Salaam-Alaikum (Peace be onto you.)
I rate this album, S.A.W., 5/5*****!
