Lord Finesse and DJ Mike Smooth "Funky Technician" Album Review

Pure Unclassified Dopeness - 100% Masterpiece
Founder of the phenomenal Diggin' In The Crates Crew (D.I.T.C.), Lord Finesse will arguably be the sickest punch line emcee you will ever hear. In my opinion, no emcee can match Finesse's microphone dexterity. No emcee can match his lyrical endurance. And I dare you to find an emcee with superior wordplay. No, you've never quite heard an emcee lace a beat quite like Finesse. The only comparable emcees in terms of skill would be Rakim & Big Daddy Kane. His multi-syllable verses are among the elite. A hip-hop head not owning this classic album is like an R&B fan not owning Marvin Gaye "What's Going On".

Finesse & DJ Mike Smooth signed to the legendary Wild Pitch Records in 1989, and in 1990 they dropped "Funky Technician" on the scene like a ton of bricks. The producer lineup is ill - DJ Premier, Diamond D, Showbiz, and of course the scathing DJ Mike Smooth.

This album is a wildly boisterous and exciting ride. It doesn't creep up on the serious tip in the least really. This duo is about dope beats & ill rhymes. And very few duos can execute this somewhat narrow spectrum with such vivid success. Tracks like "Funky Technician", "Back to Back Rhyming" featuring A.G., "Bud Mutha", "Just a Little Something" are just a few examples of the perfection these guys have to offer. There isn't a wack track in the bunch.

Despite the stellar lineup of talent, this album never received the respect it's due. In which case, it remains wholly underrated. And to the unconverted, without a question, you need this in your collection as soon as humanly possible.

U-God "Mr. Xcitement" Album Review

garbage from alpha to omega
This is garbage from the start to the finish of this mockery of album. What happened to the u-god on the wu tang albums? all the lyrics are weak, the hooks suck, and the beats are weak also. That is a very dangerous combination. This album is so bad I almost want to recommend that u-god stops rapping. This album displays how weak he is (on the solo tip) and how much he needs the rest of the wu to help him pick a good beat and produce some decent lyrics. U-god should never stray too far away from his clan.
