Free Music Review: Dope! Dope! Dope!
Hit: 5 Stars
What more can I say? this album is great! Chi-town reppin' to the fullest! Black Milk does wonders with the beats (Tronic). There is not one weak beat. You cannot ask for more. It is very Hip-Hop & it's complete. I love how the samples on songs like "Guessing Game" & "Demons" give me that Wu feeling yet stay unique. It's the new sound of Chicago (you also have that old sound too that give you that classic Kanye feeling, i.e "Transitional Joint"). One thing reviewers often forget to talk about is Elzhi's creativity, his rhymes are very different then your average, he is not flashy nor cocky, not too street and mostly concentrates on giving you ill wordplay and flow, in a way he sort of reminds me of Nasty Nas in his younger years. Yet he has his own style, I love how he plays with rhymes, this cd is really fun to listen to as well, I mean fun, Elzhi has created rhyme games for fans to play along to, I have never heard this done in Hip-Hop before, very impressive! Props to him for that. On another note, the featuring artists also build up this album, especially on "Fire" (Rmx). Basically it's good music. A definite classic for the year 2008 which was in my opinion a weak year for Hip-Hop.
They're all good but these are the tracks that standout:
-The Leak
-Guessing Game (Anthem)
-Motown 25 (Royce holds it down!)
-Colors (reminds me of my sesame street days lol)
-Fire (Rmx)
-D.E.M.O.N.S.
-Talking In My Sleep (Sheer Genious:)
-Hands Up (Catchy!)
I recommend this cd to Hip-Hop fans, I don't mean Soulja Boy or Lil Wayne hip-hop, I mean RETURN OF THE BOOM BAP true Hip-Hop. Only real fans will dig this, this is nostalgia. If you're wondering where Hip-Hop went, this is a good place to start.
Support this people. Hip-Hop! One!
