Synopsis

Amazon.com
From Run-D.M.C.'s unlikely courtship of Aerosmith to Anthrax's union with Public Enemy, seemingly polar opposites have spawned a whole musical genre popularized by the likes of Korn, Limp Bizkit, and Kid Rock. Crazy Town's The Gift of the Game neatly slots into the rap-rock category. They obviously carry some clout, amassing an impressive guest roster for a debut album, including godfathers of the scene Red Hot Chili Peppers on stand-out track "Butterfly" and KRS-One on the storming "B-Boy 2000." As debut albums go, this is about as accomplished and cocksure as you get. --Helen Marquis

CD Reviews

THEY WILL DEFINITELY BE A ONE HIT WONDER
G. McDermott | Palm Springs | 03/09/2001
(1 out of 5 stars)

"Okay, you hard rockers you are going to hate me for this but I saw Crazy Town (awful name) on MTV with their video "Butterfly" currently riding high at no. 2 for a second week on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles."Butterfly" is a great rap song, the video is beautiful, the band is talented, unfortunately they are wasted in this album with hard bang rock with no rhythm, hooks, or talent."Butterfly" is the ONLY standout song here, and this will be very misleading to people who buy this album, because the rest of this album has no relation to this song.You can tell by the awful cover art that you are getting into some serious dark rock territory.If you are POP music fan like me, buy the single and do not waste your money on this garbage."
This CD ROCKS!!

"Crazy Town is an awesome group, and their CD 'The Gift of Game' really rocks. They're not as hard-core as limp bizkit but the rap/rock mix works great. If you're more of a pop fan get the 'butterfly' single, but rockers should go for the whole CD. The best tracks beside 'butterfly' are 'only when i'm drunk' and 'lollipop porn.' Plus, there are some really cool extra tracks :)"
Great CD

"Although this CD has been out for more than a year and a half, Crazy Town is just now getting popular around the US. These guys are awesome, and their varied tracks are almost all worth listening to. Although I am not much of hard rock fan (i.e. Limp Bizkit...thumbs down in my opinion), I found this to be a good album. My favorite song is Darkside... This CD is definitely a great buy!"
