Wow
Kal | Sweden | 11/02/2007

"I'm a big hiphop fan and this is one of my all time favourite albums. The beats are amazing, very jazzy, and every single one gets my head nodding, just like a great beat should.



Kero's flow is smooth and relaxing, and the lyrics are deep and intelligent, touching many different aspects of every day life.



All the songs are great, it's one of those rare albums where you don't feel the need to skip a single song.



So if you like jazzy, soulful hiphop I can't recommend this enough."

"I usually listen to my iPod when I'm driving, but when I picked up this album a few months ago, I immediately popped it into my car and over night somehow forgot that it was in the player. When I turned my car on again, I listened to the entire album and seriously thought to myself, "Wow, this station has really improved lately! Maybe I should actually start listening to the radio again." [But no, it was Kero One, and I still don't listen to the radio.]



This album is LEGIT. Definitely a mellow album - I don't know what you consider hip hop, and I'm sure I lump a lot of things into that category too. This has more of a jazz tip to it; if you're looking for some hyphy ish, I'd keep looking. Much props to Kero One for showing people that Bay Area hip hop/rap/whatever isn't all about E-40 [and don't get me wrong, I'm all about E-40 - but I do appreciate variety]."
Revisit the golden age...

"i miss the golden age of hip hop. i'm talking about the stuff before the synths, overly rambunctious baselines, and childlike hooks(seriously...i've heard my 3 year old cousin sing the likes of soldier boy and ti as lullabies).



golden age stuff was full of funky jazzy samples and smooth/intellectual lyrics - a perfect mixture of headnodding fun and jazzed out soul. a quick listen to plug label's kero one is a trip back to the days of pete rock, tribe, de la, brand nubian, pharcyde, et al.



pick WINDMILLS up...and take a quick excursion away from HIP POP, back to the golden age of HIP HOP."
