CD Release Party
The release party for Million Dolla Broke Niggaz was held at the Granada Theater in Lawrence, Kansas on April 30, 2000. The show also featured the Zou, the 57th Street Rogue Dog Villains, and Tech N9ne. This performance remains the longest ever performance by DVS Mindz, clocking in at just over an hour. During the set, the band included songs that were rarely performed live, including “Murdarous Verses,” "Me, Myself, and I Prevail," and “Misrepresenters.” The disc received nearly universal critical praise from the local music press. The Pitch writer JJ Hensley noted that many "consider DVS Mindz the area's best rap group,", and journalist Geoff Harkness opined in a June 1, 2000 review for the Lawrence Journal-World that "the DVS debut serves as a bell-ringing wake-up call to area rap groups: The game just got raised to a whole new level." The CD has been long out of print, but it is relatively easy to find used copies online.

Famous quotes containing the words release and/or party:
“As nature requires whirlwinds and cyclones to release its excessive force in a violent revolt against its own existence, so the spirit requires a demonic human being from time to time whose excessive strength rebels against the community of thought and the monotony of morality ... only by looking at those beyond its limits does humanity come to know its own utmost limits.”
—Stefan Zweig (18811942)
“... the idea of a classless society is ... a disastrous mirage which cannot be maintained without tyranny of the few over the many. It is even more pernicious culturally than politically, not because the monolithic state forces the party line upon its intellectuals and artists, but because it has no social patterns to reflect.”
—Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)
