Mos Def - The New Danger (poll)
« on: October 12, 2004, 03:54:08 PM »
well, i just had to cop this shit today right when it came out. I was actually feelin most of the album and i like the blues and rock influence on some tracks...i'm glad mos brings some creativity to the game and IMO this is not only creative but overall dope music. Not all tracks are equally good, but the majority of them are tight. anyways, this is my opinion and i guess since this album is not very conventional not everybody will feel the same. so drop your opinions

oh yeah, New Danger >> Beautiful Struggle

peace

Is it out in stores now? I thought it was a couple weeks from now.

Most hip-hop is now keyboard driven, because the majority of hip-hop workstations have loops and patches that enable somebody with marginal skills to put tracks together,...

Unfortunately, most hip-hop artists gravitated towards the path of least resistance by relying on these pre-set patches. As a result, electric guitar and real musicians became devalued, and a lot of hip-hop now sounds the same.

Voted: didn't really feel it and I don't think I ever will
but I think I'm being nice.  This album is a mess, I don't know what he was thinking when he put it together.

CalebOhio: I think i can speak for many others when i say my favorite rap artists are white but i still want black artists to be dope. they are chosing not to be. that wouldn't be a likely believe held in a white supremacist group. I want Nas to deliver evertime but he doesn't every time Sage does. so Sage gets my $15 regardless or his status. fuck your status perception and labels you use.

beautiful struggle tbh bored me a bit. It's not bad at any point, but there's a lot of stuff that is just too...average, Talib rips it on most tracks, but most songs just didn't seem to be too inspired, a lot of the production is just ok, no surprises, nothing that stands out..."Back Up Offa Me" is a good example, i find the production boring, the rapping is good, but i rather listen to talib's first, the blackstar or the reflection eternal to hear him...i admit it's pretty difficult to analyze why, but i never really feel the urge to listen to that record....

now why is New Danger horrible?
