Production was handled by Digital Underground inner production team, the D-Flow Production Squad. It features
guest appearances from
Luniz,
Del the Funky Homosapien and The Black Spooks. The album reached number 113 on the
Billboard 200 and number 26 on the
Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums in the United States.

The album was supported with two singles: "Oregano Flow" and "Walk Real Cool", which peaked at numbers 75 and 95, respectively, on the US Billboard
Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. Songs "Food Fight" and "We Got More" were featured in
Paris Barclay's film
Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood, with the latter ended up appearing in its
soundtrack album.
Critical reception
Mike Boehm of the
Los Angeles Times wrote that the album "sports a nice, laid-back take on
George Clinton's elaborately semi-chaotic
P-Funk production approach".
[9] Jeff Niesel of
The San Diego Union-Tribune opined that "the mellow grooves of 'Walk Real Kool', 'Future Rhythm' and 'Stylin'' simply fall flat".
