Better than before but....
06/21/2000
(3 out of 5 stars)

"not yet perfected, Vol2 is slightly better than its predeccesor due to what sounds like extra studio time and effort but unfortunately compilations like these reinforce the idea that oldschool techniques blend poorly with newschool beats and rhythms, especially of the electronic nature. Noteworthy tracks include Tribe vs Propellerheads' Electric Relaxation (but the original is sooooo much more relaxing)...Fu-schnickens vs Pimp Juice's Ring the Alarm (dope, very)...and Groove Armada's coolass remix of Tribe's Description of a Fool (although you can find other coolcoolass remixes of this song everywhere if you look hard enough). If you do like the marriage of quasi-electronic+hiphop, Timbaland seems to be doing nice work (eg Aalliyah's "try again" is pure digital), Dre is on top as demonstarted by both he and Slim's new joints, and surprisingly Juvenille. Again, it is difficult to impossible to effectively blend these two genres without compromising the strength of one for the other. If you're looking for Tribe remixes there's always the UK import "Revised Quest for the Seasoned Traveller", tons of import singles, the extra cd on The Love Movement, and finally the previous New School vs Old which I thought actually had better Tribe tracks than this one."
This album is fantastic

"This album combines the great beats of new school rap with the great lyrics and soul of old school. this album is entirely worth listening to if you enjoy a great beat and some fast lyrics. this album should be listened to by everyone!"
