Intervallum 46 - Cin-E-Matic




















Louis Logic - Sin-O-Matic

Sin-O-Matic definitely remains worth a listen, however. With a brainy-yet-skewed charisma eerily similar to pre-platinum status Eminem freestyles, Louis is more than able to drop a clever couplet or hysterical punchline every rhyme or two, and even when at it's most stereotypically "indie rap," the disc never loses momentum. Highlights include "Postal," an ode to soul-sucking dayjobs that rides a Dirty South bounce throughout; the freakout Latin guitar on "Diablos;" and "Idiot Gear," an absolutely infectious track which could easilly be a hit single in some alternate universe.

1. Sintro
2. Street Smarts
3. Freak Show
4. Celph Hatred feat. Celph Titled
5. Diablos feat. Celph Titled

Intervallum 45 - Great Storyteller




















Masta Ace - A Long Hot Summer

This has to go down as one of the best albums ever to hit the shelves. This veteran emcee dropped a great concept cd that was below the mainstream radar. Too bad. I didn't expect too much from this cd. And, at first, the number of skits almost made me not purchase it...but then I realised that they were all part of this concept album that introduced the next song.... The different number of producers almost makes them challenge each other to produce a better track- which Masta Ace benefits very well. No- XXL, MTV or the Source won't mention this: This release is a hip hop classic.

Intervallum 44 - Molotov Cocktail




















Paris - Sonic Jihad

Here Paris returns with his most pointedly-focused and brutal condemnation of the ills of society to date. Waging righteous warfare (hence the title) on all that he perceives as being wrong with the world in this current political climate of manufactured fear and "War on Terror," he covers such issues as the New World Order, the manmade origins of AIDS, military lies and propaganda, police brutality and the embarrassing state that hip hop is currently in. The first single, "What Would You Do?" has already been a lightning-rod for controversy in the United States, garnering coverage from such notable sources as MTV2, The New York Times and MSNBC for its suggestion that the Bush Administration played a key role in orchestrating the terror attacks of September 11, 2001. And it doesn't stop there -- the album also features progressive hip-hop visionaries Dead Prez, Public Enemy and Kam. Add dancehall sensation Capelton to this already impressive lineup and you have a potent molotov cocktail of an album ready to explode.

Intervallum 43 - Power Of The Word




















Sabac - Sabacolypse

I bought Sabac's debut album with hesitation at first, but had no regrets after listening to it. His cd portays his views and opinions all the while accurately portraying current day issues and solutions. "Urban Gorillas" and "Speak Militant" are just a few of the great songs that states the corruption and opppression in the world. His songs offer a striking view on a better society and brings the truth to light in a creative form. With powerful lyrics and incontrovertible facts, it acts as a message to all people. It is not recommended for children, but for adults and older teens, it will exhume the reality into those whose minds are clouded. The problems, the politics, the oppression: all fall into his work for change.
