Free Music Notes for Beats Rhymes & Life
Free Music Review: One of the greatest albums ever made
Hit: 5 Stars
listen..."Peoples Instinctive Travels...", Low End.." and "Midnight.." are all brilliant..The production was fascinating and original, cementing ATCQ as an extremely original crew...not only that, they are without a doubt an integral pioneer to the culture of hip hop itself..without them, a major piece of the puzzle would be missing...native tongue lyricism helped spawn other diverse wordsmiths such as Mos Def and Talib Kweli (respectively known as Blackstar-another extremely dope duo..)..but..Phife and Tip as a lyricist-duo were probably the most brilliant ever...Tip would come with that beautiful abstract perspective, and Phife come with that raw, free flow stuff...touching souls man....anyway..on to "Beats, Rhymes, and Life"....this is probably the greatest hip hop record released in the later 90's...only to be competed with by MF Doom's "Operation Doomsday"...but not even Doom's gem can really stand the test of this..maily due to the approach of this album...which i doubt will ever be surpassed..they came fresher than a baby's a*s with this sh*t...Jay Dee creates some of the greatest soundscapes i've ever heard on a hip hop record...the soul just smacks you in the face..and then comes the reign of Tip..i mean, Phife is excellent on this release....and with the addition of consequence...good stuff...but this is Tip's pinnacle..his opus...a word to the world before he leaves his art...(no offence, but Tip just went downhill, letting the fruits of the industry rob his talents, and leave him starving for capitol and sex,...too bad...cause this album is a masterpiece)....his lyrics are reflective, intelligent, positive, and catchy...he mastered the craft of the emcee....and then the songs...i am not going to give an individual synopsis, that would be useless, seeing as every song is equally as brilliant..even the most commercial tracks are excellent...let me say that (at least to me), the trach 1nce Again sums up the entire feel and strength of this masterpiece...if you do not purchase this...i feel damn sorry for you...RIP ATQC...REAL HIP HOP.....NOT THE CRAP YOU ARE CONFRONTED WITH EVERYDAY..THIS IS WHEN THE ARTIST CONTROLLED HIS DESTINY...WHEN THE ARTIST EXPRESSED HIS TRUE VIEWS...WHEN THE ARTIST RELISHED IN HIS CRAFT....WHEN THE ARTIST LOVED THE MUSIC
