Unfortunately, Harper's execution of this original conception on his debut album, "Welcome to the Cruel World," is distinctly underwhelming.
Very Good and enjoyed listening to Welcome to my Cruel World by Ben Harper but unfortunate when I first rated it I accidently confused it with another CD by Ben Harper so I'd like to apologize to you readers and liked to change my rating to 5 / out of 5 stars.
Harper is very successful in all of his albums especially "Welcome to the Cruel World" in providing listeners with a very ecletic mix of sound on one album.

Comment: Ben Harper's first album had a real acoustic feel to it; the songs were accompanied by bongo drums at times, and although that might sound a little bit cringe-worthy, the overall effect of the album was a balanced and relaxing listen.

For an artist such as Ben Harper, who's reflective blend of acoustic soul & organic stripped down blues and R&B, coupled with his emotional singer/songwriter approach gave his debut album "Welcome to the Cruel World" a great starting point, for those tired of music lacking any intellectual content.
But it was this, his fiery politicised second album "Fight for your mind", that he was to truly make his mark on the musical landscape.
This is a intimate and deeply introspective record, that not only looks inwards, but frequently looks at the world from the perspective of a enraged musical poet (Harper's influences such as: Dylan, Hendrix, Bob Marley, are clear to see).

I didn’t really get into him until this year, when I downloaded “Welcome to the Cruel World” when I got up here.
So overall this disc is better than most anything out there right now, but it’s still not as good as “Welcome to the Cruel World.” But then again, what is?
Ben has really put out a great disc, but I think it’s going to have to grow on me. While Ben the Preacher has really outdone himself with some of the tracks, Ben the Rocker needs some work cause I’m not so sure I dig that so much.
