Free Music Review: Reserve a Spot In Your Best of '07
Hit: 5 Stars
As a newbie to Polyrhythm Addicts, I had no clue what to expect. Upon my first listen, I thought that this was the resurrection of The Fugees (even the album covers are similar). It doesn't get more fresh than this, and the amazing talent of emcee Tiye Phoenix may be the best female rapper to hit the scene since Lauryn Hill. Her excellent counterparts include Mr. Complex & Shabaam Sahdeeq, who also stay right on point throughout the album's entirety. All of which would not seem nearly as spectacular without the sonic execution of DJ Spinna's extremely fresh production. Although I was unfamiliar with DJ Spinna until now, he's a veteran producer, and his discography runs extremely deep in quality. He adds a wide variety of turntablism, downtempo house, and a healthy dose of electronica into a solid platform of hip-hop, creating samples and noises that stray from the norm of your standard hip-hop template.
I've listened to this album roughly 10 times in the past week, and I've yet to find any skippable material. The album is structured well with a mix of bangers, spaced out jams, love songs and is jam-packed with intelligent, and conscious lyrics. My favorite joint on the record goes to "Zonin' Out", which features some of my favorite production from Spinna, and some awe-inspiring lyrics from the gorgeous Tiye Phoenix. Guest appearances made by Pharoahe Monch ("Reachin'"), Large Professor ("The Purist"), Planet Asia ("One Chance"), & Phonte ("It's My Life") keep the album varied and strong throughout, although the true focus is never taken away from the core of the group.
This album is truly in a class of it's own, and if anything, Tiye Phoenix should turn some heads on to some true female talent in the hip-hop world. I've yet to find a hip-hop release this year that is this varied in style. Truly one of the best releases of the year...don't be caught sleeping!
