CD Reviews

Dope album, full of substance, better than you think 4.5

DJ-H-OS | NJ | 04/27/2002

(4 out of 5 stars)

"The beats are diverse, but in a good way. Lots of scratching and one song even fades in and out which helps stress the lyrics. The songs have meaning to them, like Art of War which is about how different countries fight over religion. The song $19.99AD is the best on the album, its about the evils of abortion. This guy is from the group Typical Cats and as far as I know the most gifted in the group. If you like artists like Sage Francis, Slug/Atmosphere, Sole(anticon), and Illogic pick up this album ASAP."

"Qwel's rhymes are some of the best out there not only because he flows so well, but because of the content in his words which often make you think. From the evils of abortion, to religion, to a love song, this album has it all. The beats are great too, as they complement his flows immaculately. Robust gives great verses on $...AD and Art of War. Look for his album as well. This buy is definitely worth it and also check out his new album(Rubber Duckie Experiment), the Typical Cats cd, Qwazaar's Walk through Walls, anything from Galapagos 4, and definitely Atmosphere's Overcast and Lucy Ford. Go to hiphopinfinity.com to see what's up in real hip hop. If you like Missy Elliot and Nelly, don't buy this because you obviously don't know good hip hop. Sit back, chill and listen to this all the way through, then again and again."

Essential history-making trax

"In this day of revolutionary turns in music, to miss this artist is tantamount to missing John the Baptist, one crying loudly in the wildest of wildernesses--the evolving hip-hop scene. If speaking truth with beauty is valued, if knocking the status quo off balance is sought then you will find reward in qwel. Pure is the quality of originality found in his lyrics."
