CD DetailsSynopsis
Amazon.com The state of underground SoCal hip-hop, circa 1999. Bolstered by the scintillating production skills of producer Madlib, Lootpack provide a winning alternative to the slick materialism and excessive violence of the mainstream scene. With DJ Romes cutting behind them, emcees Madlib and Wild Child showcase their tight flows and creative wordplay as they "attack the wack" and represent the west O-X (Oxnard, California). Other underground heavies join the party, including Dilated Peoples and Tha Alkaholiks. Sure, this isn't the game-changing masterpiece that underground heads claimed it would be, and the lyrical themes don't stray too far from run-of-the-mill emcee boasting. Still, with Madlib supplying the endless array of funky and freaky beats, it's hard not to be won over by the album's big-time bounce. --Marc Greilsamer Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsMadlib, Stones Throw, Real Hip-Hop !! Chris G | Chicago, IL United States | 05/30/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "Madlib is an underground lord, straight up. Anything his name graces right now is a sure sign of somethin' dope. Therefore, Lootpack's LP, "Soundpieces", is none other than a flavorful combination of top-notch production and wack MC attackin' lyricals. With guest spots by Dilated Peoples, and Quasimoto(Madlib in disguised voice, ever so brilliant) this LP is a must have. You will not find anything like this crew. It is unique indeed. Also without question, pick-up Quasimoto's "Unseen", Madlib's jazz project, Yesterday's New Quintet, and pretty much anything else with his name on the production credits. Peace." Only for true hip hop heads Chris G | 08/26/1999 (5 out of 5 stars) "This is truly an album only for true hip hop heads. For those who are sick and tired of the ear candy played on the radio, this is the album to have,it's a classic hip hop record." Progressive Hip-Hop!"What?!" Gregory Gross | Columbus, Ohio United States | 04/23/2003 (5 out of 5 stars) "I know that in this age when hip-hop and progressive seem oxymorons lootpack comes through with a cd that defies the formula that most "mainstream" hip-hop and rap "artist" seem to be stuck in for the last decade. Wildchild and Madlib take the hip-hop world and their fans to task with tunes like;Questions, B-Boy theme, the Anthem, Friendz vs. Endz. If I seem perphaps somewhat moralistic it is only because of the long list of bad characters in the music world who produce whatever the record company says they need.
This Stones Throw label and the people associated with it seem out to put a stop to the "wackness", and this cd along with others from the same label are well on their way to doing that. Hail PB Wolf, long live the Stones Throw era." |
