Sunset Park

The Source (5/96, p.80) - "...SUNSET works `cause if you primin' dynamite, nine out of ten times you're gonna get a big...boom..."
Vibe (5/96, p.118) - "...while the movie's story line is basically a rehash of 1986's `Wildcats'...`Sunset Park's' soundtrack is way more credible--and it's also better than the songs that accompanied the other recent white-girl-helping-ghetto kids movie, `Dangerous Minds.' This soundtrack is dope."
New Musical Express (5/4/96, p.62) - 7 (out of 10) - "...SUNSET PARK...[wades] in with all-new tracks recorded especially for the film....they're...really good..."
Entertainment Weekly (5/3/96, p.79) - "It's the women--both the young thangs and old schoolers--who stand out on this all-star album. Groove Theory, Adina Howard, and Aaliyah offer jazzy respites from the testosterone-swelled rap and funk-hop of 2Pac and Mobb Deep..." - Rating: B+
