5 out of 5 stars Don't sleep... Don't sleep.......2006-05-17

I first heard Saafir on Digital Underground's "Body Hat Syndrome." He was a refreshing new voice, but got mixed in the shuffel of DU's laundry list of emcees. About a year later I saw the video for "Light Sleeper" and I just remember how bugged out the video and song was. Saafir was one of those emcees who's voice and flow just wove this tapestry of descriptive, buttery no nonsense rhymes all over the track. He was innovative yet simple and I feel he is one of the most slept on emcees of ALL time.

Shortly after the "Light Sleeper" 12" dropped, he released "Boxcar Sessions," which at the time, I feel people wern't ready for such a progressive Hip-Hop album. At the time, the Bay area had the E-40 gangster vibe, the Digital Underground Parlament vibe, or the trust fund baby vibe of Heiro. Saafir brought a new sound to the table with this LP. "Boxcar Sessions" was as gritty as any "street" record, but had the underground Hip-Hop sound of many east coast emcees.

Shortly after this LP was released Saafir and Casual had a falling out that was broadcasted on the Sway & Tech show. This was one of the battles to end all battles. Heiro Vs. Hobo Junction. Hands down Saafir whooped the ish out of Casual on this one. I remember hearing a dub of a dub of a dub that was recorded from the radio show. Hissy muffly tapes, I sat in wonder listening to this peice of Hip-Hop history.

This album was his greatest work and his most ambitious effort. Don't sleep on this gem! This LP IS WORTH EVERY PENNEY and I'd pay for it again!

5 out of 5 stars a classic 4 ya collection.......2006-04-14

This is one of those albums thats hard to find.Alot of hip hop heads havent even heard this album because its so of the radar.Its a shame that ill albums like this get buried into obscurity.The production is grimy and the flows are sick.I recommend this to anyone who has given up hope on finding real hip hop.The price of the disc is well worth it.

5 out of 5 stars Battle Drill.......2005-08-03

AMAZING album from the Saucee Nomad, Saafir!!! I recommend this to any fan of hip hop, especially the early 90's!(when everything that came out was ill). His unique style and raw beats make this a must listen!

4 out of 5 stars Strictly for The Hip-Hop Purist.......2004-06-18

Saafir is perhaps the most innovative MC of the nineties. This album came out in like '94 during a time when Hieroglyphics began to erupt and show that Cali kids have more than just gangsta flows. Saafir, however, emerges as the most prolific MC in that area. Unfortunately, he received acclaim only in underground circles because he was over the heads of the masses. I can't give this album 5 stars because the production on the album is not the greatest, but lyrically this album has no equal. It would take a lifetime to decipher much of this material. Saafir is truly a hip-hop heavyweight in terms of originality and lyrical content. I strongly recommend this album if you want an undiscovered gem. I also recommend the Hit List, and if you can find it, the single "Pull ya Card".

5 out of 5 stars BANGIN' 94 DROP.......2003-10-10

This album is hands down one of my favorites. Saafirs got a real east coast sound on this drop, which makes it a real unique album. Hes also got some of the best flows, and the way he bring them through makes it that much better. Its seems confusing and disoranized at first, but after you listen to it enougyh you see that this is how its supposed to be, and that is just his style. Favorite tracks on here are light sleeper, battle drip,and swig of the stew but they are all good. Check this one out .
