React is Erick Sermon's fifth album. It received mediocre critical and commercial success despite featuring the single "React" which was a Rhythmic Top 40 and Billboard Hot 100 hit. John Bush of Allmusic describes it as being a "hardcore follow-up to his 2001 crossover hit Music" as well as commenting on its "dark tone" and "raw raps".[1]

    • React

  • "React" contains a sample of female Hindi-language singer Meena Kapoor performing 'Chandhi Ka Badan' from the 1963 Bollywood film Taj Mahal. The sampled line, 'Kisi Ko Khudkushi ka shok ho tow uh huh kya kare' translates as "If someone has suicidal interests, what can we do?" to which Sermon responds, "Whatever she said, then I'm that". The use of the sample drew criticism from the Hindi-speaking community.
