Free Music Notes for The Outsider
Free Music Review: Smooth lyricist
Hit: 5 Stars
First off I was really excited and and really enjoyed CL's return to the scene with American Me. I didn't even know this mixtape was out until I checked out my man ctrx's review. I immediately purchased it from itunes for a much better price. The mixtape has tracks from the American Me album, some remixes, some new material, and live performances. I am a big fan of going to the show to see artists live so the live tracks really turned me on to this album. I got kind of hyped listening to T.R.O.Y. live almost as if I was there. CL was a vicious lyricist back in the day and he shows the same dedication to his lyrics with his modern day songs. I used to hope for pete rock and CL to get back together, but as it seems they are both doing just fine with out each other. Enhance your collection with this release.
The Outsider Poster
CL Smooth, half of the legendary and influential "golden era" Hip Hop duo Pete Rock & CL Smooth, created many classic rap anthems during the 90s including "T.R.O.Y.", "Straighten It Out", and "Lots Of Lovin". CL has one of most recognizable voices in all of Hip Hop and he's back to bless the mic once again. After the pair split in 1995, CL Smooth remained musically inactive for about 10 years, only appearing on five isolated tracks with his former partner and declined even to appear as a guest on other artists' albums, with the exception of a track called "Only the Strong Survive" with DJ Krush. Recently, however, he has contributed vocals to songs by AZ and Dipset affiliate JR Writer. He released his debut solo album, "American Me" early this year. This CD, "The Outsider" is considered a companion piece to that album, further showcasing his relevance with a bunch of new tracks, remixes by J Period, Drawzilla and B Rock, plus live versions of some of his old mid 90s classics. Guests vocalists include Butta Verses (De La Soul associate), JR Writer, Scales of Nappy Roots, and Young Breed. "The Outsider" is hosted by So So Def's "Da Franchize" DJ Shakim of the Heavy Hitters and Super Friends DJ Crews, and with one listen, you'll realize that CL's voice still has the impact it did when it first was heard on the "All Souled Out" EP back in 1991.CL Smooth, half of the legendary and influential "golden era" Hip Hop duo Pete Rock & CL Smooth, created many classic rap anthems during the '90s.
