The In Crowd is a largely enjoyable record with very few missteps, but it's actually a little bit frustrating that they hint at Little Brother or Lupe Fiasco-esque levels of dopeness yet are content to hold the hand they've been dealt instead of drawing for a straight flush

Full of playful swagger, the Kidz rarely let their emotional guard down.

Don’t get it twisted, the Kidz have dumbed down--but they’ve smartened up just as much.
-
While MC Naledge and producer Double-O’s impressive follow-up effort The In Crowd continues in a similarly versatile vein, the vibe this time feels less like a greenhorn B-boy coming-out party than it does a self-assured statement of purpose.
-
The In Crowd is a definite improvement upon the last Kidz in the Hall album.

The In Crowd is propelled mostly by a proliferation of 90s samples and retro arrangements - but he is inventive enough to breathe life into the nostalgia trip.
