ok....so I got it it...and up to track Fried Chicken right now....
Admittedly I wasn't feeling the title that it was supposed to have been named and I am kind of glad he decided to leave it untitled at this time, but insofar, this CD has some good meat on the bone and it's been many many years since I enjoyed a hip hop cd back to front.
The cover itself speaks volumes
My first impressions:
Some of the music for a few tracks are nothing impressive altho I did like the beats for Hero, Testify and especially Sly Fox.
This is an album that kind of hearkens back to days when rap and hip hop really started gaining consciousness, when people were more concerned about the state of the world rather than the bling and killing each other. My only concern was that a few of the tracks almost sounded incomplete...whereas you were expecting more...but that was it.
Nothing really new or ground breaking besides what I have heard a lot of spoken artists and poets do...and Nas is just there but not quite....out there BUT soemthing like this is really what the industry needs to begin getting rap and hip hop back on track....having music with a message.
So....this insofar is my first impression, and on a scale of one to 10...I give it a 7.
