No More Album Reviews

I've been kinda slacking on the album reviews lately. It took a few emails from dedicated readers to remind me that some people like to get an outside opinion on an album before purchase.

With that said, I will no longer be posting album reviews. I'll still do posts on music but I'm done reviewing whole albums. There's two reasons why I came to this decision. First, I haven't heard an album in a while that I can listen to from start to finish. There's always a few filler tracks that are sub-par and I'm not into giving bad press. As a MC I get enough criticism from half-wit critics who have never written a song in their life. That I rather not critique other artists on a social platform. I want people to listen to the music with no preconceptions and give their own critique.

Second, This blog was created to share my interests in a broad spectrum of fields.There are so many interesting topics to cover in the fields of technology, science, and art. That spending time reviewing another persons material (for free) is a waste of blog space. With that said I leave you with new tunes from my fam in France, DJ Modesty. Also Hynief, Saigon, Gensu Dean, Ruste Juxx, and Tyger Vinum. 

New Muzik

I've been listening to new muzik from coast to coast and overseas. I'm looking for the best albums to put in the next album review post. While searching for the right albums I've had the privilege of discovering a few new artists. Below is music by industry veterans Saigon (ft. Quan), Killer Mike (ft. Young Jeezy) and Mysonne. Mysonne has been spittin bars since The Lox and DMX were still on Ruff Ryders. He went away for awhile, but since his return he has been dropping some hard tracks. 

There's also new comers Lightweight and L. Hammond. One from NYC the other from Seattle WA. both MC's got bars and spit with different styles. Lately the trend has been for NY rappers to sound like their from somewhere else. Whether it be from the south, Chicago, West coast or even from the UK. It's got to the point where its hard to tell if these cats are from New York. The MC's in the line-up below all represent their region to the fullest, and each track is dope.

New Muzik

Happy Holidays People,

In the festive spirit of the Yule tide season I come bearing gifts. New Muzik from industry veterans and fresh faces. I call new muzik songs that have a strong beat, good lyrics, catchy chorus and  the artists image and appearance is congruent to whatever he's relaying in the song. 

First up is Pace Won. He was a member of the group "Outsidaz,” back in the 90's which included members Eminem and Bizarre before they created D12. He also did collabo’s with Flipmode Squad and the Fugees. He’s back with a hot track with Mr. Green and Rival called “My Song.”

Next is Murs and 9^th Wonder with a melodic Ode to Hip-Hop called “I used to love her again." 9th is one of the go to producers for hit records. Murs is a conscious rapper and part of groups Living Legends and Mystik Journeymen. 

Followed by Saigon, dropping conscious poems with depth on his track "Together Dear Black America." Saigon has been around for awhile steadily building a buzz over the years but due to label problems has yet to release his long anticipated album "The Greatest story never told."  Perhaps on the strength of this track and other buzz worthy singles the album will be released in the new year.

Finally Drag-On former member of heavyweight label the Ruff Ryders, along with The Lox, DMX, Eve, and Cassidy. Drag took a brief hiatus from the game after dropping his last project in 2004 and now is back bringing the heat for the winter. The track "Swine Flu" featuring Jadakiss and Trish Barnes is a return to 90's Hip-Hop with hard rhymes, beats, and delivery. Enjoy!
