Heated Lyricism.......2007-06-28

Kam, a rapper from South Central, Watts I believe, comes correct on his debut in 1993 under Ice Cube's guidance. Under a wide variety of producers, the vibe is funky, but not as much G-Funk in the vein of his 1995 album Made In America, which is some of the finest lyrical and musical G-Funk around, but this funk here on Neva Again is more raw, and some of the beats resemble underground East Coast rap. There are plenty of P-Funk samples and Zapp samples. Now in comparison to Made In America, the beats on Made... I like a little more, but as lyrical as that one was, the lyrics here are a little more heated, for Made... was a little tamer. Kam may not flow like Redman, Biggie, Guru, and the like, but he is hella lyrical. Peep his crazy take on the holidays on "Holiday Madness." He sees no point of those Eurocentric celebrations and how his folks are too broke to care. A wonderful gem here is "Still Got Love 4 'Um." He brings back memories of the homies growing up, and as their lives take different paths, and they change, he still remembers them. "Neva Again" does take more of a G-Funk vibe. The beat samples Zapp's "Heartbreaker." He takes on America and it's social innequalities and embraces Islam. He also takes on why he looks after his own people first, which is his answer to his alleged racist views, can you blame him. He may appear as racist on some joints here, but listen to his views. He is deep, and he deserves to vent his frustration with the situation in America. The beat on "Peace Treaty" is another of the few G-Funk selections here. The beat is hella phat, and almost resembles an Erick Sermon beat but west coastafied. "Stereotype" is crazy too. He takes on stereotypes of black folks. He is serious, but his bluntness can be humorous. All in all, this album is bangin' with some deep groove funk, and political and social lyrics.

A Severely Underrated Classic (Rating: 10 out of 10- -5.0 stars).......2007-05-15

Damn, The Lench Mob was on a roll back in 1992-93. Kam who was once part of Ice Cube's Lench Mob went on to drop his solo debut back in early '93. I personally find Kam's "Neva Again to closely resemble the Ice Cube's "Amerikkka's Most Wanted" and "Death Certificate" in so many ways. He has a lot to say about many events going on in his neighborhood. When he rhymes, he rhymes with versitality and charisma, something that I'm feeling. "Stereotype" and "Hang Um High" are some dope tracks about the lifestyle that goes on that he has witnessed. I also like the track "You Don't Hear Me Dough" as it has a dope beat as Kam rhymes about the way people are living.

Guests are on one song. Ice Cube appears on "Watts Riot", and creates the chemestry between the two emcees. Koze, Stone, Stan The Guitar Man, Toothie, Chris Charity handled the producion this album. This album does have funky production like on "Neva Again" and the previously mentioned song "You Don't Hear Me Dough".

This album is so underrated. It's has an amazing vibe from start to finish, well dressed with some funky lyrics and beats. I'm suprised that not too many people heard of Kam, because he is an phenomonal lyricist. Even The Source gave this 3 mics out of 5 back in '93 (go figure). Sadly this album is out of print. If anything, you shouldn't pay no more than 30 bucks for this. Or you can download it legally for a cheap price, like I did. Either way If you're a fan of early Ice Cube, Public Enemy, Lench Mob, etc, don't hesitate to purchase this album. Kam would follow this up with Made in America in '95 and which is dope as well. Peace.

A rap classic from the days when rap was real.......2006-10-23

One of rap's greatest storytellers, Kam (real name Craig Miller) raps about all facets of his life. The best song is undoubtedly "Still Got Love For 'Um" in which he expresses continued gratitude for his family despite numerous disagreements they've experienced over the years.

my favorite kam cd.......2005-12-16

of all my kam cd's this is my favorite one. the lyrics and beats take me back to my young cali days. "I still got luv fo um", is a true to life song for my life everything that he spits in the song is what happened to me and my crew after we went our seperate ways, but oh well thats how it is growin up. But Kam is always gonna be in my CD deck foever, he is underrated. Cant wait for the new one to drop. And by the way L. Muhammad the album "The devil made me do it" was done by Paris in 1990, not by Kam. Just tah let cha know.

What happened to...?.......2005-09-07

PEACE:

I wonder why they are not selling Kam's CD entitled "The Devil Made Me Do It" here?

As good as the 1st Album.......2005-09-25

After about two years from their 1st CD "Dream of the Orient", Concerto Koln and Sarband released their 2nd. The content of the new CD is divided into five sections: "Dede the European/Mozart the Turk" (Ismail Dede Efendi: 1778-1846), "From Vienna to the Ottoman Empire", "Musical Contest Alla Turca", "Danubian Waves" and "Mysticism and Ecstasy". The program is well prepared and represent the European (mostly German) and Ottoman (mostly Sufi) music of the era. There are more Ottoman pieces in this CD: while only 7 out of 26 pieces were Ottoman in "The Dream of the Orient", the new CD has 15 of the 27. Please keep in mind that the drums and cymbals of Sarband are less pronounced in this CD; there is no "military" music as the CD title clearly suggests.

It is extremely pleasing to see that this CD, for a second time, brings the East and West a bit closer, at least in music.
