Good, but not quite there.......2005-10-20

With a large track listing of 26 songs, you might be surprised at this album. However, most of this album comprises of minute-long "skits", meaning there are very few "proper" songs. On the other hand, this is Rahzel. This album is a cocktail of freestyles, tributes, covers, and an amazing radio-show style song with Funk master Flex. True hip-hop fans will instantly notice legends such as KRS-ONE, RZA from Wu Tang, and Slick Rick. Rahzel, member of The Roots, also collaborates tracks with other Roots members, such as ?uestlove. One of the best tracks on the album would have to be the Tribute to Jam Master Jay, the late DJ of RUN-DMC, where Rahzel impresses a crowd live.

Rahzel, who boasts being "The undisputed Beat-box champion of the world", shows his skill in such clarity, that this album is a must for fans of hip/hop, The Roots, or just for people looking for something different. This is a great purchase.

Straight up amazing. .......2005-05-05

As you can tell from my nickname next to my name, I love beatboxing. Liked doing beats with my mouth since I was young, got more into it in high school when some of my friends would rock crowds, now I do the same at talent shows. I usually am not fazed by people who try to beatbox, but man, if I ever had to face Rahzel, I'd pee my pants. He is simply untouchable. The ish he does isn't even human. Now to get to this cd. This is better than the first. He is an alright lyricist, but not the greatest. The beatboxing is his greatest strength. Man, that old snoop beat he imitated with Tonedeff on the mic rippin the verse apart. That was one I play over and over. I loved the several tracks Black Thought was in, which was track 7 where he just freestyled over a nice Rahzel beat, track 15, where he and Dice Raw just throw down some nice lyrics, while Questlove and Rahzel trade turns during the song with the instrumentals. And track, I think it's twenty with GrimmReaper from Gravediggas, no, it's 22, where Rahzel just lays such a tight beat and Grimm and Black Thought put down some great freestyles. Wow, the Tribute to Aaliyah was just amazing, with Rahzel singing the chorus line to one of her songs, can't remember the title since I didn't really listen to her music, but I heard the song before on the radio, and it sounded just like it when Rahzel did it. It was nice to here Supernatural, which I feel is one of the best freestylers ever, to freestyle and pay a tribute to Run DMC's Jam Master Jay. The list can go on, but from the songs I just talked about, it describes my feelings about every song on here. Get this. Beatboxing is often a forgotten element in hip hop and it needs to be supported, especially when Rahzel is doing it.

if you have ever sat on the corner and heard a rhyme battle and had beatboxing gurus go for broke this album is essential. rahzel's speed and experience have gone from vast to everlasting.. this album was a sleeper. being no one heard it coming. the added guest appearances are suiting and the hot 97 instro is superb.

Must have ALBUM.......2004-07-14

YO if you like beat boxing and turn tables and hip hop, you will love this ablum. The tribute songs to people are amazing, buy this album and you will love it@

4 1/2 stars for jaw-dropping.......2004-06-11

Ok, first of all, this album isn't for everyone... Some will write it off as a novelty, becuase it IS "just" a Beatbox album.

Then you think about what's going on. Rahzel is amazing... He has apparently 4 different sounds going on at any given time, AND, can just flip the script and change the beat up at the drop of a hat... The best parts of this album are the interludes (he usually does live interludes and/or radio show recordings as interludes, and his live performances are much better than his written songs). The weakest tracks are when he's just the beat for another artist, and actually, on the tracks he raps AND beat boxes, I'd have to say, most of the time, he shows up the other rappers putting it down with him...

Standout tracks include the Funkmaster Flex interlude (4 minutes of Rahzel doing his thing on Hot 97 one day), and the "Undisputed Interlude" where Rahzel proves why he's the "undisputed champion."

If you're a hip hop head and you like hearing some old school flavor, with jaw dropping beat boxing, then throw in your chips and buy this album...
