Moment of Truth is the fifth album by hip hop duo Gang Starr. Released four years after its previous album, Hard to Earn, this album could be perceived as a comeback, with a newer, updated style of the group's already-established jazz-tinged hip-hop, as stated by Guru in the introduction. The album is the group's most commercially successful album to date. Moment of Truth debuted at on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. It went on to sell over 500,000 copies and was certified Gold by the RIAA on May 7, 1998

By the release of Moment of Truth in the spring of 1998, Gang Starr were rap veterans, having spent nearly ten years as professionals. That elapsed time meant that the album was positioned as something of a comeback, since the duo had been inactive for four years, and it had been even longer since they had a hit. They knew they had to come back hard, and Moment of Truth almost accomplishes their goals. Retaining the swing of their jazz-rap fusions, Gang Starr nevertheless have their rhythms hit at a street level, and Guru's rhymes are his best in years.

Just another Gang Starr album that hip-hop had waited four years for while Guru was doing his Illkid Records and Jazzmatazz business, and other MCs benefited from Premier’s remarkable knowledge. Hence the album flew out of the shops, making N. on Billboard and going to N. in the hip-hop charts. They are all part of the same thing: love one, love all. Though especially love Moment Of Truth. Everything they achieved is present and, as they always strove to make it, utterly correct.
