CD DetailsSynopsis
Amazon.com For the past 10 years, Queensbridge has proven itself the unofficial home of criminal-minded hip-hop. Some of it's been good, some bad, but the QB sound is consistently grimy. And Screwball, a crew that's been around for considerably more than a hot minute, represent their 'hood in fine style. Having bounced from Tommy Boy Records, the group, which includes KL, Hostyle, Poet, and Kyron, decided to release their sophomore album on a smaller label, and the move seems to have liberated them. Loyalty is 100-percent unadulterated, down-and-dirty street music. It features live beats, tight rhymes, and guest stars Kool G. Rap, M.O.P, and Cormega, each adding depth to the final product. More importantly, it has what so many so-called street albums have being missing for a while--a genuine love for the music. As Cormega says on the title track, "Loyalty's worth more than wealth." The purity of Screwball's Loyalty is a welcome confirmation. --Rebecca Levine Similar CDs

CD ReviewsPlease... Malcolm Smith | Toronto, Ontario Canada | 02/19/2003 (3 out of 5 stars) "man screwball fell off..anyone who listened to their first album knows this. The lyrics dont even compare and the beats are beyond weak. I still say Y2K is one of the illest albums of all time." 2nd group LP is a solid one G$ | B-More, MD | 09/15/2005 (4 out of 5 stars) "Just over a year since their classic debut the 4 man QB group is back. Like most of the reviewers said, not as good as "Y2K" (not many albums are as it's one of the 5 best rap albums ever in my opinion) but still a solid 4 star album. For fans of Screwball you know what to expect, pure grimy steet gangsta rap, nothing else (what do you expect from QueensBridge). Packed with 16 songs, you get 2 classics, another 2 that are almost classics, 4 ok songs, and the other 8 are good or great songs. Once again the guest list is straight street rappers like their debut, and they're on about half the songs. Once again each member drops a tight solo song. Production is good as well. Godfather Don does 6 songs, Ayatollah does 4, Mike Heron, SPK, Beatnuts and 3 cats I never heard of all do 1 song. Once again a must have for fans of that QB street rap.
