| Hip-hop currently lacks innovation in creation. With 1000x samples of some old Steely Dan song and how many "I'm better than you are" flows floating around the atmosphere I am sufficiently bored as fuck. I want music I can have a relationship with. I want lyrics that will broaden my perspective, to feed my bouncing head with imagery and ideas that transcend the same old battle. I want beats that have depth and dimension, insanity and dementia. I want to hand my intellect over and get it back some minutes later full and fat and ready for dessert. I want substance. I want creativity. I want uninhibited lyricism dripping from the mouths of the ones with language well in grasp. And so here parade the contributing parents of a new revolution in hip-hop. Out of the dirty sample puddle of the hip-hop artist, thirty-six musicians emerge seemingly unscathed to produce one of the most fiercely independent and finest compilations in the era of the emcee and the Dj. With fourteen tracks that are continuously renegade and imaginative, Ropeladder 12 is a clever, substantial contribution into the rebirth of real underground hip-hop. It is an opus. Buy this album. It will change your life. Honest. - Life Sucks Die |
