provocative and awing delivery by Truth Theory
Truth Theory aka Tshombe the Poet The "End Game" is truly a beginning, a new birth into an age of truth. The provocative and awing delivery of this most powerful messenger compels you to heed the message. From the onset of the alarms you will be captivated in the following message of a revolution that WILL be poeticized, delivered by the one and only Tribal Raine with a jazzy accent to back her. And just as any revolution requires a sacrifice, Max Parthas tells you that his life is on the line as he shares messages of TRUTH, from censorship to "the faith gene". I haven't stop listening to this CD since I got my fat fingers on it. Come on I dare you to listen, you might come out edutained. Thank you Max for bringing it real! --Truth Theory Host of Mic Check & President of Spoken Truth Online Radio & Media (STORM) www.blogtalkradio.com/spokentruth

A library of knowledge! by Lovely Brown
I bought the CD and had it in my home for a week (before I opened it) - thinking of what environment I wanted to set in my home…to mentally and physically prepare myself to recline and take-in all this knowledge to here. In the C.D.-player. I clicked [play] and it was ON! This CD is a library of knowledge for which should be a required course for the whole world to take and receive college AND life credit! The movement! The Mission! Maximum Impact is the CD to buy and play for EVERY occasion - even a learning piece to educate our young adults… and for the young-at-heart to remind them that their work’s were not in vain. Thank you Maximum Parthas & Tribal Raine and your producers for doing such a beautiful job in kicking minds in gear - Thank you family.

one of the most professional spoken word cds out! by Misty Garrett
Misty Garrett The number 2 poet in the world, along side him, the hottest woman in poetic truth today....together they make up MAXIMUM IMPACT. This cd is one of the most professional spoken word cds out today with lines that hit home, kick you in your butt, and make you cry because the truth is that touching....all at the same time. Interviews with the best of the best are included on this cd, Living legends, up and coming artists, and most of all Max Parthas and Tribal Raine all together in one place. If you have never listened to spoken word before, this is the place to start. 10 years in the making, more lives touched than can be counted, more people helped to get to the top than you can imagine, and a couple that put their lives on the line everyday (literally) to bring you the truth. Our families are dying because of the crap the media feeds us. This is a venture into the world of inspiration, dedication, and artistry in a new rare form. Turn off that radio and pick up a copy of End Game. It will change you outlook on what you deem to be the "norm", it will show you how our society has programmed us to believe that if it's not mainstream, its nothing, only to get in our pockets and brainwash our children. Don't let this one get by you. You will regret it for the rest of your life....as you should.

nothing short of an amazing by Nyne Elementz
Nyne Elementz The End Game CD is nothing short of an amazing work. From beginning to end, all you hear is inspiration, along with snippets of all the hard work they put into establishing the culture that is the New Word Order, as well as representing the Prysmatic Dreams family. Both Max and Tribal bring it like it's never been brought before in poetry, showing nothing less than lyrical excellence. The production by The Dubber and Militant Muzik during the poetry tracks was an excellent complement to the powerful words they offer. This album does a great deal to pay respect to the elders, and offer a much needed message to a generation in need of inspiration. This is not a purchase, it's a much needed investment in the future.
