asdf
just raising the average here, and what the hell can I tell you that others haven't? since 99/100ths of the people who will ever purchase this album have already done it, i just have to say that if you happen to be one of the single 100th of the losers that haven't purchased this yet, DO IT! You won't regret it!
peace,

CYNE - EVOLUTION FIGHT
Cyne "Evolution Fight" Album Review
Disappointed.
Not what I had expected to hear. If you are looking for some of the more uplifting, earth melodies heard in Cyne other albums - beware! This album is way too "explicit" for my hip-hop ears.
Video Cyne-Haze
Heavy song from cyne!
MANTRONIX - MANTRONIX
Mantronix "Mantronix" Album Review
Paul "Tonic" Thompson
This album was dubbed for me on a cassette when i was stationed in Japan. The music was ahead of its time and the production was next level in 1985-86. Kurtis Mantronik could rock beats today for some lucky eemcee! MCTEE was a nice rhymer and was sorely missed when he broke out. Hip-Hop was young then not much radio play or video. This album was the meaning of underground Hip-Hop.

BLACKALICIOUS - THE CRAFT
Blackalicious "The Craft" Album Review
Best Hip Hop Album of the year
This album is excellent. The beats are top notch and MC Gab's lyrics and flow are immaculate. In a world where 'shake your laffy taffy' gets radio play, this cd makes you appreciate what hip hop can really be. This is a smart cd which is a breath of fresh air.
Video Blackalicious - The Craft
[Chorus] This Craft, this beat, this rhyme, this vibe This style, they say music gives new life From a source inside that is forever flowin' This stage, this mic, this crowd, this show This life, I've been given a gift tonight And for that, I vow to be a vessel [Gift of Gab - Verse One] I didn't have to be, given the gift to rip I'll never master me, I know that it's from Him or Her or It, dimensions that sit Waitin' to sift through me, I fall short, still it hits me swift I didn't have to see, I coulda hit the lick I coulda drifted it quick, I coulda quit so quick It's really a trip, I guess I was picked I don't know what I did to deserve a ride like this (Damn!) I didn't have to eat, I coulda been so thin I didn't have to be, quoting these sentences I didn't have to reap, the work put in but then even the work in itself was such a blessin I didn't have to see, the planet lip to lip I didn't have to make, a livin' writ to writ I didn't have to dream and then begin to live it And for that, I vow to be a vessel [Chorus] This Craft, this beat, this rhyme, this vibe This style, they say music gives new life From a source inside that is forever flowin' This stage, this mic, this crowd, this show This life, I've been given a gift tonight And for that, I vow to be a vessel [Verse Two] I give thanks for my rhymin' ability I don't front like it's not a responsibility I can open a mind, if the youth will listen to me I'm not goin' to front, like I'm on some killin' spree and as hard as the times are, God is livin' through beats that come not from minds, but that travel through spiritual reasons Some of the time, I feel like, it's not even me No mon-ey can buy gateways to infinity Still I'm hun-gry to shine, when I know I should let it be I want but I have, every single thing that we need So help me align self with soul and then I'll be free To sculpt and design verbal styles and experience freedom [Chorus] This Craft, this beat, this rhyme, this vibe This style, they say music gives new life From a source inside that is forever flowin' This stage, this mic, this crowd, this show This life, I've been given a gift tonight And for that, I vow to be a vessel [Chief Xcel samples] "Let go, do what's in front of you" "Then, let go, then do what's in front of you" [Verse Three] This ain't leisure, although it feels It is a duty, a way to live, another way to give Another way to just, have communion With the source of the sun and moon and, a way to pay the bills Displayin' skills, I take it REAL serious The vibe's so mysterious, not just one more day to kill ..and I could lose my connection if I do not respect it enough, fffade away it will Day to day it gives energies That replenish me, if I believe and I say it will and act on it, 'cause action is the key to freedom Only way to be a leader, lead by the way you live [Chorus 3X] This Craft, this beat, this rhyme, this vibe This style, they say music gives new life From a source inside that is forever flowin' This stage, this mic, this crowd, this show This life, I've been given a gift tonight And for that, I vow to be a vessel
