CD Reviews

Damn near to a Classic!
Mitch Lagrow | Syracuse,New York. | 05/09/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is an amazing album. Production is on point of course with Black Milk and Dilla, and "cold steel" is the perfect single for this album. Certainly a must have for any hip-hop fan. I consider this a solid album that could easily be considered classic."
The D is where it's at
bRaZzi | the Bronx, NYC | 05/23/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"being from NY, I can honestly say that the D(etroit) is the near being the next NY. Phat Kat brings it hard to the mic with beats from J Dilla, Black Milk, Young RJ, and Nick Speed. A classic Detroit sound that will evoke thoughts of the "Old" New York."
Real Detroit sound
AndyH3000 | 07/08/2007
(4 out of 5 stars)

"In some of the songs on this album, Detroit rapper Phat Kat laments that it took the death of legendary producer J Dilla for radio stations to actually play any of his music. As crass as that may sound, he's got a point: Hip-hop radio has completely slept on any Detroit artists that aren't Eminem or in Eminem's camp.



Phat Kat, for instance, has been around for quite a while and, with this masterfully assembled album, is finally getting some due outside the 313. Basically, if you like hard-hitting beats and grimy lyrics you should like this album and you should check out other Detroit luminaries such as Black Milk and Guilty Simpson. And, of course, J Dilla."
