The Commercial Appeal

God Sound is the second album by the American rap group Boogiemonsters, released in 1997. It was produced by the group and Domingo. It was Boogiemonsters' final album.

The album peaked at No. 47 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart and No. 15 on the Top Heatseekers chart. A single, "Beginning of the End", reached No. 89 on the Hot R&B Singles chart and No. 39 on the Hot Rap Singles chart.

Critical reception

The Washington Informer wrote that "these brothers hit you in the head with common sense and a little Christianity ... the music is hip-hop divinity with a mature voice." The Commercial Appeal thought that "while taking a Book of Revelations view, the group's musings on 'The Beginning Of The End, 'Behold A Pale Horse' and 'Sodom & Gomorrah' reflect the current, apocalyptic trend in gangsta rap."
