Not my cup of tea, but pretty good. . ........2002-08-12
Mad Lion has always been an artist who is really hard to appreciate on an album, lyrically he's not that strong, and he's always been paired and compared to Supercat who is a master, which didn't help Mad Lion too much. To fully appreciate him and what he does, you have to actually see him perform as his energy on stage is pretty much second to none in contemporary dancehall.
Predatah or Prey is a very hip-hop sounding album done in Mad Lion's Jamaican tinged way of vocalizing. The riddims are pretty much all hip hop, in fact, outside of Mad Lion, Bounty Killer and maybe Terror Fabulous, no dancehall artist could probably ride these beats.
My favorite song is probably Give It To Me with Total, I like what Total adds to the song, and its a pretty unusual combo tune. I also like Weed is All We Need, Sensamillion, and the odd operatic sound on territory.
What else can I say? I consider Predatah or Prey to be a hip-hop album, I'm not a big fan of rap, so its not for me, but there are a lot of hip hop fans that might like this one. Get it if you like maybe Kardinal Offishal, Bounty Killer and maybe even DMX, as it is a very hard and jagged DMX-sounding record.

Excellent album; too bad we had to wait so long.......2004-03-21
Each of the Lion's albums stands on its own accord, and they seem to be getting better with time - "Real Ting" was a fantastically fresh introduction to the Lion's self-described style of 'Hip-hop Reggae' (although I don't see the reggae influence myself - his lyrical delivery is more comparable to Bounty Killer than it is to Robert Nesta or Dennis Brown and the grooves are definitely hip-hop, so I think a more accurate description would be to call his music 'Dancehall-influenced Hip-hop' than 'Hip-hop Reggae'), while "Ghetto Gold & Platinum Respect", despite the ridiculous title and substantially weaker sales (AFAIK), displayed a much refined touch when it comes to the beats and a stronger and more consistent delivery when it comes to the vocals - overall the album just begged to be played as loud as possible. This latest album, however, absolutely brings down the roof - strangely this one is not doing as well commercially (again, AFAIK). I can think of two reasons for this:
1. The most obvious is that this album is bloody IMPOSSIBLE to find - I spent an entire day in Berkeley looking for this album and could only get the first single (on vinyl of all things).
2. The less obvious reason is that this album is too unlike the absolute trash coming out of hip-hop studios now days. This album is reminiscent of the strength of hip-hop prior to its being taken over by the radio, and I guess most people have just become too desensitized by the trash that's been coming out for the last 4 years to appreciate the brutal nature of Lion's latest release.
The night after I picked up the single "Bring It if You Want It" (mid-2001) in Berkeley, my roommate and I threw a party at our place in Fremont - after about two hours of my roommate doing his crafty work (hard house, trance, and jungle) on the turntables I managed to talk him into letting me take over his precious table for a while. I proceeded to spin some nasty Dancehall to set the mood (spun some classic Buju, some recent Capleton, and a touch of Beenie Man), and let people get in the proper mindset provided by the slower, but more deliberate beats delivered by these monsters of Dancehall - after about 30 minutes of Dancehall I dropped the bomb on them all, and let Lion take the helm with "Bring It if You Want It" - the party absolutely exploded... this was the freshest sound many of these people had heard in quite some time, so I wasn't surprised later when nearly every person at the party came by and asked me who I spun "after the reggae stuff." Strangely enough, no one there had heard of MadLion (or MADLION... even MadLion can't seem to escape the schizophrenia suffered by most other music artists) - a *very few* of them knew the song "Take It Easy", but that was it. Anyhow, the Lion's music had a profound impact on the people at the party, and not a few of the people there were music aficionados, or so they thought, so it was pretty impressive that a single song had such an affect on so many snobs.
I didn't get the full album of "Predatah or Prey" until I found it in a small shoppe in Houston in January of 2003, but I'm here to say that it was well worth the effort to find - this album is, without doubt, his, well his *heaviest* and most intricate album - the lyrics are delivered with a greater intensity than even his earlier work, and have a groveability that is seldom seen in the junk that comes out of most studios in this tumultuous time. If you've never heard MadLion then this is as good a place to start as any - any of his albums will turn you on your head, and I can't bring myself to label any one album as my favourite. Whether you be a south island roodie or a musically-deprived college student in Berkeley (and yes, if you are younger than ~21 right now, you have been deprived of good music for most of your adult life if you haven't yet looked to the past for musical inspiration - I really feel for you guys) I guarantee that MadLion will open your eyes and broaden your musical horizons. If you have the means then I highly recommend picking up a copy of this CD, finding an adequately equipped stereo (your alarm clock, for example, does not qualify; your ghetto friend's lowered POS with the ridiculous 4 farad cap would probably be more appropriate), and for the next hour just sit back and experience the acoustic assault that is MadLion.
One more thing - here's proof that MadLion is definitely down: he can be heard on a Sublime-released remix of "Doin' Time" (on their greatest hits album I think), he's still down with the Dub All-Stars from Long Beach, and is also involved with the Born Jamericans and quite heavily with KRS-ONE, who is no slouch by any account. So yeah, he's no Ja Rule, and for that I am grateful, as it's kinda nice to hear original music every now and again. (about a year ago my little cousin was in my car while I was bumpin' Tupac's "Pain" - my cuz turned to me and said that this was a rip-off of Ja Rule - he was swiftly kicked to the curb after a quick education) :) Tot ziens.
