This cd from start to end will keep you entertained and the lyrics will give you goosebumps. This is a must buy cd for true underground hip-hop fans.

Poet Name Life "Calm Before the Storm" Album Review

Poet is amazing!
This is Poet's amazing new album. Poet's extremely talented (not to mention awesome to party with). Even though this album is not exactly like his stuff with the Black Eyed Peas/Fergie, you'll still love it if you like anything from BEP/Fergie.

T-Bone "Bone" Album Review

Stellar introduction to the art of T-Bone Walker
Nice introduction to the work of T-Bone Walker! He was one of the best of the bluesmen. The liner notes from the CD provide nice background to Walker's work. Many heard him live when he was well past his prime, not knowing the full skills of his art.

Even two songs illustrate. . . .

"Bobby Sox Blues" was an early popular song of Walker's. The backing group supports his singing well. He displays a smooth singing voice. The song itself spoofed the teenagers' giddiness over Sinatra and Eckstine.

And then there is his iconic ""Stormy Monday. . . ." This is one of the great blues tunes. Walker's voice serves this song well. The backing instruments have a clean sound and back the singer very nicely. The liner notes say that "If T-Bone had done nothing more in his career than write and record this one tune, his esteemed place in the history of American music would be guaranteed." His singing emphasizes classic lines such as:

"They call it Stormy Monday,
But Tuesday is just as bad.
Wednesday's worse,
And Thursday's also sad."

All in all, then, this is a fine introduction to the work of T-Bone Walker.

Jakki the Motamouth "God vs. Satan" Album Review

GOD VS. SATAN.....The 2 sides of Da Motomouth!!
Jakki is a battle mc pure+simple with an extraordinary vocabulary and ill metaphors. His delivery is clear+sharp with a gruff Tame1-esque voice. Having heard him with his crew MHZ on "Table Scraps" afew years ago and seeing him in action tearing mc's apart on numerous Scribblejam dvd's I was dying for him to drop a solo album. So when this dropped awhile ago I snapped it up. Although Jakki is predominantly a battle mc he also has afew different tracks on here that are very original+leftfield at times such as "Cleptobrainiac" (a tale about teaching a guy how to steal), "Abduction" (battling an alien for Earth), "Broken" (how he feels after everythings gone wrong in his life), "Positive Rap" (after hearing he has a disease he goes on a rampage) and "Left". However when he gets going on beats with his normal flows its off the charts. Tracks like "Radiofriendly", "Stage Fright", "Break Wit' Ease", "Relax", "Wha's Fu*kin' Wit' This" and "Raw" are all amazing with some of the tightest lyrics you'll hear. With afew guest shots from Copywrite enhancing the tracks aswell it really boosts the album. The only thing that took away from this were afew mediocre beats and so many interludes. Other than that its an excellent addition to your collection.
