| The first full-length release on the eclectic Mush record label is an adventurous collection of underground hip-hop. A wordy collection, to be sure, as the nine pages of lyrics in the CD booklet can attest, but these words are closer to poetry than your average hip-hop record. Musically you can expect lots of jazz and soundtrack samples, plus an ample helping of turntablist trickery. Lots of variety from track to track, yet it all sounds cohesive in the end. Very impressive. - Jazzadelica |
