Free Music Review: The Best Writer in the Game
Hit: 5 Stars
Ok now this is definately my all time favourite rap/hip-hop cd, and I've got about 300. No questions asked. If I'm looking for something to listen to I might put on some Biggie or maybe a little Pharaohe Monch or perhaps a bit of Wu in its many shades, but if these aren't making my head bob, I take them out and put in the most reliable cd I have, Slick Rick's "The Art of Storytelling." Every single time I listen to it I'm drawn in, I just have to listen to the whole thing in its entirety and still I marvel at Ricky D's immaculate talent. I should point out that I'm only 22 and Rick is one of the older cats in the rap biz. But does that matter, well yes if you're looking for something a little different, a bit old school, even incredibly talented. I especially love "Who rotten em'" (plait swings or have you forgotten him biggest big shot since King Tut and em') I mean how many songs are there that talk about pharoahs and lions and a young slaves chance at a better life? None, the way Slick does it. And of course THE most graphic song of all time has to be "Adults Only" such a brilliant mix of filthy lyrics and appropriately filthy sound smaples. Personally as Rick says, I don't think he needs anyone else to rap with either although being a big Snoop fan the collabo with him and Kid Capri is beautifully woven together.
This is one of the only cds that I have bought that I wasn't even concerned about who was making what beat, everything fits perfectly, even the two mixes of "I own America" stand alone and don't bore you when you hear one right after the other.
Ultimately my all time favourite cd and I'm a legend so if you want to be as good as me get this album nephew.
