"A team of German producers called Snowgoons, along with the elite underground hip-hop artists (a total of 26) bring on the heat. I'm talking nuclear reaction heat. German Lugers for me is as big of an event as the release of another JMT album.
Lyrically the album is agressive- a lot of battlerap. Just listening "Who What When Where" is an intense expirience.
Beats are unusual and creative- Snowgoons have done an excellent job, and in my book they're on a level of producers like Stoupe. It's also nice to see an international collaboration.
I highly recommend German Lugers to anyone who knows at least one artist on this album:
Sean Price
O.C.
Living Legends
Rasco
Chief Kamachi
Last Emperor
Afu Ra
Jus Allah
El Da Sensei
Wise Intelligent
Reef The Lost Cauze
Doujah Raze
MED (Medaphoar)
Craig G
Celph Titled
Baby Black
Pumpkinhead
Wordsworth
Edi Amin
Edo G
Breez Evahflowin
Majik Most
Kreators
Born Unique
Mitchell Hennessy
Virtuoso"
WHAT HAPPENED TO PRODUCTION

"THIS CD WAS AWESOME....GREAT BEATS, GREAT COLLABOS, GREAT LYRICISTS, BUT THE PRODUCTIO WAS OFF. NONE OF THESE SONGS BANGED HARD BASS. THE SECOND SNOWGOONS
(BLACK SNOW) WAS PRODUCED MUCH BETTER. EVERY TRACK WAS THUMPING. ITS TOO BAD THAT THIS WAS THE ONLY LACKING ELEMENT, OTHERWISE I WOULD STILL HAVE THIS IN MY PLAYER NOW."
Sick Production and Sick Emcees

"For the most part this album was totally sick. I love a lot of the emcees on this album. Reef The Lost Cauze, Wise Intelligent, and the Living Legends should be enough alone to buy this one. The production is very solid and all of the beats have a unique feel to them. This album is not leaving the rotation."
I'd give it a 3.5 but I can't.

"Well leave it to the hype machine to add another album to my collection. If you're keen to the underground hip-hop scene you have no doubt heard nothing but good things about this album just like I did. I was really excited to pick this album up because from the way people described it I was expecting something kind of like Wu-Tang Meets Indie Culture only with a sharper edge to it. The production and arrangement are good, I'll give the Snowgoons themselves mad props for some incredible beats and quality mixing on the album, but despite all the "A" list talent on this album the lyrics are pretty disappointing. If you're in to strict battle rap then this album will probably appeal to you more but I personally like a little more thought and direction in a song's lyrics vs. random, yet witty, interjections for 3 minutes. That's the kind of stuff I expect in freestyles and actual battles, not on a full length album. The real problem with that lyrical styling is that many of the artists on this album are capable of so much more yet this album just churns out one dimensional rhyming.
In summary, it's great production wise but the lack of lyrical variety and ingenuity makes it kind of a yawn to listen to especially when I got The Undisputed Truth the same day.
