Review

Steve Huey of AllMusic gave the album 4 out of 5 saying, "The Best of Salt 'n Pepa is an excellent 15-track overview of the groundbreaking female rap group's career, featuring all their big hits from the early days up through their platinum success in the '90s... it's an excellent summary of their career. There are a few alternate mixes included, like the video version of "Whatta Man" and two different versions of "Push It," but there are no glaring omissions or substitutions. It might have been nice if the tracks were ordered chronologically, so that the group's development from cover-happy dance-rappers to sexy crossover hit makers could be traced more readily. But their assertive self-confidence and underlying feminism hold everything together, and the best singles here rank as influential hip-hop classics." [2]

gollark: I mean, strictly speaking it *is* still around and being updated, but you know.
gollark: Yep.
gollark: I think a mod which really did it right was ReactorCraft.
gollark: Hmm. Looking at this, *hydrogen* at least is widely available, so just pipe your boron into a reactor with that and it runs energy-positive.
