Free Music Notes for Heavy Mental
Free Music Review: Conscious Underground Hip Hop Classic
Hit: 5 Stars
I cannot think for the life of me why some people would review this Dominant Album saying that!"The Beats wasnt up to par",or "It was boring",or"He is not this, or "not that",or some other negative foolish review.
I'll just name a few good beats alone.In which rightly synchronize with these tracks.(Atoms to Adam)It also contains Very Highly Complex Lyrics.If you dont know what particular jewels(Knowledge)in which he's talking about in that track.Then ask someone qualified to break it down to you.Because he's breaking some biblically historical facts down.Then you've the track,(One Step).It's full of knowledge and information.It also has a very nice beat to syncronize.
Here is another one(Bible) It's full of knowledge,wisdom and truth.It also has a nice beat to synchronize.
I could go on and on.However,to true conscious hip hop heads they know how thorough this Album truly is.
These Highly Knowledgable songs are worth playing and listening to- all throughout the year 2000...Example- Bible,From then till now,Blessed are those,Wisdom,Information,Almost there,Mystic City,High Explosives,Etc;
And if people are still behind in knowledge within the year 3000.Then it'll still be worth listening too.(lol)
Those tracks have the right beats to go with what content he's rapping about in the first place.
The Album "Heavy Mental", has both beats and highly informative lyrics in which are full of knowledge.
Anyone in their right calculating mind can agree to this truth.
Again, "Heavy Mental" is an all time highly deserving exalted superior Album.
The Facts:Killah Priest is more concerned about getting knowledge across then his worry about how someone will judge the beat.
When complex rhyming like he does is concerned. You've to take everything into consideration. He wants people to be able to hear what content he's rapping about.Along with having a good beat to listen too. Which he does've.
This just goes to show how you cant please everyone.Their always is some form of negative judgement one way or another.
We're in some troublesome times within the Universal order of things.The times we are in. It helps to take in highly positive informative lyrics. It's not about some satisfying beat that must be heard before giving a perfect rating.
It's about listening to highly knowledgable things in which can change a person's life towards the better. A beat doesnt make a person a better moral,spiritual,ethical, or other positive type of a person,etc;
However, it's the content in which an emcee raps about in which can make growth within the listeners.
Some people miss the entire message of what "Highly Conscious Hip Hop is about".
This is "one" of the most informative and knowledgable Albums to ever hit the market.
It deserves for everyone to truly not only hear it. But to grow and evolve into its vast content towards the purpose of information sharing.
If their was a 100 star rating as the highest! Then i would give this 100 stars.
Killah Priest,KRS-One,The Lost Children Of Babylon, along with certain others; are some of the most highly knowledgeable and skillfully articulating Emcees out there by far. Yes, their are some others. However i'm just naming certain ones from off the top of my doom.
I dont care what other reviewers think.I go by my own freedom of convictions.
Also, back to the beats, what good is it to hear a beat if it over-rides and drowns out the lyrics! If a reviewer wants beats dominating over the lyrics, then all they've to do is listen to mainstream!
All you've to do is put in some mainstream garbage in your system where they're concerned more with producing bass, along with rapping about meaningless things; instead of producing actual conscious lyrics.
And to those reviews who said that this album is not worth buying.And they had the nerve to give it a bad review. All i can say to those kind of people is this: If u dont know true knowledgeable hip hop then keep listening to the garbage in which some how doesn't offend u.
The only conclusion in which can be made towards these type of reviews is this: Their must be some aspect and form of knowledge within his deeply rich content in which easily offended your basic mind. So instead of giving the album the ratings it deserved you would rather spew out your own individual purely subjective prejudices in one verbal way or another.
On the other hand: True conscious hip-hop heads are going to just laugh at your wacked comments and judgements of various kind.
This album is worth buying all through the 21st century.Because in reality, most of humanity is that far behind when dealing with truths which are deeply buried from their conscious mind.
The ones here who in which gave bad reviews from their feeble comments like: Bad Beats,Boring,Not the best rapper,To much religious symbolism,mysticism,Etc;
These are the type people who view things from a very narrow minded perspective.
This Album in truth is one of the best by far. He raps about important things like: Example-In one of his deeply informative tracks.He talks about microchips,history of knowledge kept hidden,New World Order Stuff,certain mystical elements,Etc;
If a reviewer cannot appreciate that sort of highly imperative stuff to learn about.Then to such an un-informed person. I would have to say this truth.
You're the ones who Killah Priest is talking to about being lost in this system from your own innate ignorance.
We are in desperate times to learn some truth in which is being lyrically expressed. As oppose to having any weak preconceived notions from your own religious turmoil of subjective reviewing.
Killah Priest is one of the best in the rap game.He also is by far one of the most potent story tellers,mystical poets,Etc;
He doesnt need your bias low ratings in order to be easily seen in true hip hop eyes as one of the greatest emcees in the game.
Killah Priest is constantly rising to the top. He is very multi-talented/multi-faceted and that will speak towards his unlimited legacy alone.
While you low rating reviewers talk your meaningless individual subjectivity. He'll still be clowning on the mic with his deeply thought out poetical and highly conscious lyrics.
So do yourself a favor! "Listen to him and learn something"
