"Dungeon Family member finally steps out on his debut A S.W.A.T Healin' Ritual as a slept on classic. Production was held down by none other than Organized Noize, two from ROB & Emperor Searcy and one from Mr. DJ to create an album that literally fits the name Witchdoctor with spooky, southern, ancient beats. "Holiday/12 Scanner" was the only single and video from Witchdoctor that professes the art of hustling and getting paid. He represents his hometown well with Mook B. on "A.T.L. The Great Big Lick". The exotic "Island Koneelalee" about beautiful women is a good song without the disrespect. Witchdoctor team up with Cool Breeze with the riding bass on "Georgia Plains (Holy Grounds)". Big Rube spoke wisdom on "Remedy". "...him comin', him comin'...", as said on "Heaven Comin'" as he stresses his belief in a higher power. Another highlight "4 In The Temple" features Big Gipp, T-Mo & Phoenix. He even shows his skills on the guitar strung "Lil' Mama's Gone" as he sings on the last track. If you like OutKast or Goodie Mob this is a mixture of both conscienceness and originality. "Spells" have been casted the moment you press play!"
