A little to much rap, but the incredible violins more than make up for it.

"I hate to be the first to write any negative comments about this album but...



I stumbled upon this group one day when I woke up early on a weekend, flicked on the TV, and happened to catch these guys playing Thunder. I was blown away by there performance and sound. A few days later the album was released and I picked it up right away...only to be disappointed. The album has its highlights: Track 1, 3 and anywhere the music is just instrumental. The integration of hip-hop and classical is superb and gves this group a fresh new style. The disappointing part of this album: the rapping/singing/vocals. The rapping is mediocure at best and that is being generous. Tracks 4-7 are cheesy and the rhymes throughout this album are amateur. The remix of Thunder is a waste of a track (the song was solid the first time, why remix it?)



They went to Juliard and Bloomingdale to play the violin (which they excel at) not to rap. My recommendation: Stick to what you do best."
You can easily get addicted to this.

"I am loving these guys. Tourie Escobar and Damien Escobar known as Nuttin But Stringz are great. The first time I've notice them was in the "Step Up" movie. Even though the scene was short I instantly like what I heard. I took the time to look them up and notice that they've made a few appearances on the day and nightly shows plus a few sitcoms. They combine the classical sound of the violin with Pop, R&B and Hip-hop. The result of this turn out to be one of those unique and uplifting sound with just the right amount of rhythm and intensity. Playing in the subway has paid off for these two which lead them to contribute back to the community by performing and dedicating there time to the kids by discussing music and of course staying in school.



Their first single entitled "Thunder" showcases their raw talent; it digs into the soul, slowly unleashes it and exposes it. "Broken Sorrow" and "Dance with My Father," takes me away and it's simply fantastic. The remix of "Thunder" is very up beat and ended the album rather well. But really there isn't one track I dislike and/or wouldn't recommend. These thirteen tracks might be too small for your liking but impact that it gives you stays on you for quite some time.



Nuttin But Stringz does justice to these genres of music. If you're not that into hip hop or hate the way is going, or have a thing for classical music and want it to flare up a bit then this might give you what you need. I believe kids with the love for music will also enjoy this.
