The Other Side of the Looking Glass is the debut solo studio album by American hip hop musician Alias. It was released on Anticon in 2002. It features a guest appearance from Doseone.[5]

Critical reception

[edit]

Stanton Swihart of AllMusic gave the album 4.5 stars out of 5, saying: "There is a jittery, kinetic, midnight vitality to both the sound and sentiment expressed on this solo debut, yet Alias has an almost disarmingly serene way of wading through the mazes of his mind."[1]
