Kwame still on point

(4 out of 5 stars)

"This album was heavily slept-on and caused his next album Incognito to be ignored. Its sad because this album was pretty good and was the last great album that Kwame' made(Incognito was suspect). No longer were his clever sexual references hidden. This album is a little bit more profane but it doesnt take away from the quality of the album.



One listen to Ding Dong and you'll guess where Busta Rhymes took the chorus for Dangerous from. Kwame's lyrical finesse is evidenced in tracks like Nastee, Ding Dong, Can You Feel It, Cantwinfaloozin and U Got It. Kwame still holds it down with the ladies on tracks like Thatthewaydatitgoez, Without U and These Wordz. The only tracks I didnt feel were Shaboom and Dontmatta.



Lyrically this album is tight and the production is nice to since we all know that Kwame is a dope producer. Its sad that people forgotten what Kwame brought to hip hop: Fun, skills and tight production to back him up. People can trounce Kwame all they want but he never pretended to be a fictional mob character that only existed in a movie. Kwame is what he always was: A B-boy.



Standouts: DING DONG, NASTEE, CANTWINFALOOZIN, THATTHEWAYDAIITGOEZ, THESE WORDZ, LOVE IN F/X MINOR, DONT WANNA BE YOUR LOVE THANG and WITHOUT U."
