Free Music Notes for Roll With the New
Free Music Review: Half good, half not so
Hit: 4 Stars
I found exactly half of this CD to be incredibly funny, and the other half to be incredibly not funny.
Great bits include the Opening, Marion Barry/Million Man March, Niggas/Blacks, and The Commitment, as well as a few others.
Bad bits include Luther Campbell, Press Conference, OJ/O'Jays, Champagne, This Show, Mary Wong, I'm Back, Another Face, as well as a few others.
All of the great bits are Chris's standup, and the bad bits are mostly studio-produced pieces that are written and performed by people other than Chris. What was he thinking? I can understand giving other people a chance, but they have to be funny first.
Just my opinions, mind you. Bottom line is you can't go wrong when Chris is doing standup.
Roll With the New Poster
Never mind the weak material he was relegated to on Saturday Night Live: Upon leaving the show, Chris Rock suddenly became the funniest man in America. Roll with the New, his sophomore album, mixes a variety of elements--song parodies, skits, even one of those hokey routines where a reporter's questions are "answered" with clips from records. But most of the of the album consists of Rock's stand-up act, in which he fearlessly takes on the subjects of the day--Marion Barry, O.J., and "niggas vs. black people." It's devastatingly funny, and sufficiently thought-provoking to earn Rock comparisons to predecessors such as Richard Pryor and Paul Mooney. Rock's bit on "tossed salad" in prison will probably make you toss your cookies. But it's hilarious nonetheless. --Daniel DurchholzMusic Genres
