Free Music Notes for Nervous Breakdown

Free Music Review: What's up Doc, Can We Rock?
Hit: 4 Stars

Excellent production (very funky and raw). Excellent rapping.

Chip-Fu is just out of this world...weezing and screaming all over the tracks in between his frantic rhymes (he's really fast, just listen). Unfortunately, he steals the show. Even though Poc and Moc have good flows, their rhymes seem a bit boring at times after Chip explodes all over the track.

If you like that raw early 90s sound, this album is for you. Definitely a classic.

Nervous Breakdown Poster

Poc, Moc, and Chip Fu of Fu-Schnickens are three young Brooklyn men who spent their childhood watching way too much television. Their raps riff on karate flicks, monster movies, Batman, Bugs Bunny, sitcoms, and cereal commercials--in other words, they spout the common mythology of Americans 29 and under. For those in that demographic, Fu's raps clear a trail into the dark recesses of memory lane. For those who don't get it, though, the trio's second album, Nervous Breakdown, is much more than a catalog of the collective Gen-X unconscious. On the record we hear three distinct personalities, all lightning-paced rappers with tremendous control of their voices. First comes Poc, the smooth and graceful one; last is Moc, a hard and solid rhymer. And with the mad flow in between is Chip, who percolates and wheezes like a highly caffeinated coffeepot, hiccups and coughs like a drunk with a chest cold, and all the while busts lyrics as furiously nonstop and involuntarily as a sprinter gasping for breath. He's an original, hear-it-to-believe-it rapper, and never anything less than hilarious fun. Nervous Breakdown, running less than 44 minutes and with only nine new tunes (plus a remix of "What's Up Doc?" featuring Shaquille O'Neal), is an unfortunately slim workout. It is, though, a potent taste of how hip-hop continues to stretch when rappers flex bigger muscles. --Roni Sarig
