Free Music Notes for Hi-Teknology 3
Free Music Review: 2-1/2 stars -- Teknological disasterpiece
Hit: 2 Stars
People might be ready to call me an idiot for giving a Hi-Tek album such a low rating. But I heard from diehard Reflection Eternal fans that Hi-Teknology 3, Tek's latest offering, isn't that hot. And after I listened to it, I discovered that it's even worse than they said.
Now, if this were an instrumental album, I could easily give it at least four stars ("Come Get It" especially proves this). But the thing is, it isn't; and most of the guests on here are so wack that I can't even enjoy the beats. As is often the case, most of the rappers are unknowns and they really aren't WORTH knowing, especially "Handling My Bizness". And after I heard "Ohio All Stars", I was like, "These are all-stars?"
Other songs with uninspired lyricism include "Kill You" and "I'm Back"; and "Step Ya Game Up" has to be the most aptly titled song ever. But R&B singers don't fare too well either (well, female ones anyway; more on that later). Estelle is very off-key on "Life to Me", and Jonell's "Know Me" really doesn't go anywhere.
The only time tracks really prevail are when Talib Kweli shows up on "Time" and "My Piano" (both songs also feature nice vocals from Dion). But although Young Buck drops a nice verse on "God's Plan", the Outlawz sound wack as usual. Sorry, Tek, but if it weren't for Pimp C and Trill Fam, I'd have to call this the best example of a good producer with bad rappers. If you're a big fan of Hi-Tek and you're still thinking about buying this, wait to see if he'll release an instrumental version of it first.
