LL Cool J's egotism is his m.o., his sex appeal, his greatest strength. He'd been on top of the world since he started scoring hits as a teenager, but anyone who's been in the rap game for five years, as he'd been when Mama arrived, has something to prove. So he came out swinging--literally--with the title track, which claims boxing trash talk as proto-rap and turns it into a declaration of ongoing mastery. Beyond that, Mama, with its ultrahard Marley Marl production, pumps up his love-man rep (the sweetly affectionate "Around the Way Girl" and an even hornier remix of "Jingling Baby") and his ego (pretty much everything else). It's mostly just old-school boasting, but damn if it isn't deserved. --Douglas Wolk

5 out of 5 stars LL Cool J's "Sgt. Pepper": A Hip-Hop Must Have!!.......2007-07-24

Mama Said Knock You Out was LL Cool J's fourth studio album. By the time of its release in late summer of 1990, it helped cement LL as a long-term force to be reckoned with in hip-hop. 1989's platinum+ seller "Walking with a Panther" was met with mixed reviews by hip-hop's urban audience. The criticisms were legion: `LL had become too commercial'. `He was clearly being upstaged by rival Kool Moe Dee'. `Hardcore acts like Ice-T and N.W.A. had a bigger street following'. `Political rappers like Public Enemy and KRS-One made LL look out of touch'. The list goes on. Fortunately, LL chose to partner with golden-age production maestro Marley Marl for a remix of the single "Jingling Baby", the success of which helped Def Jam to green-light the MSKYO sessions.

Normally, LL skipped a year between releases, but Panther was just barely over a year old when "The Boomin' System", MSKYO's first official single, was released. Essentially an ode to driving slow with your radio blasting, the single sampled the same James Brown bass riff as was used by En Vogue for their debut hit "Hold On" (the radio mix of "System" duplicated it note for note, while the album version tweaked it slightly). The LP's second single, "Around the Way Girl", was a tremendous urban radio hit, where LL gives props to all his female fans: "I want a girl with extensions in her hair/ bamboo earrings, at least two pair." On "Cheesy Rat Blues", LL pokes fun at his own image, imagining himself as a washed up rapper who finds himself pelted with "my old tapes" when he visits the shopping mall.

The title track is a thunderous announcement of LL's return to form: "Don't call it a comeback, I've been here for years/ I'm rocking my peers, puttin' suckers in fear/ making the tears rain down like a monsoon/ listen to the bass go boom!" On the whimsical "Milky Cereal", LL gives his romantic conquests breakfast-cereal names, hearkening back to "My Rhyme Ain't Done". "Illegal Search" (originally a b-side to the "Jingling Baby" remix) finds LL touching a political theme as he narrates a fictional police confrontation. It's a smoother, LL-style take on N.W.A.'s cop-trouble rants. LL manages to directly answer some of his then-rivals on "To Da Break of Dawn": Kool Moe Dee is ripped for his "Star Trek shades", MC Hammer is likened to "my old gym teacher" and Ice-T is derided as a former "downtown car thief". Perhaps the most surprising song is "Farmers Blvd. (The Anthem)", where LL teams up with some childhood rhyming pals for what is his first `posse cut' featuring his own vocals (he had previously contributed written lyrics for the Stop the Violence Movement's "Self-Destruction").

The other album cuts are worthy, so this is fortunately not the album of a few good singles and tedious filler. LL and Marley crafted a hip-hop masterpiece to announce the 1990's, but its appeal is far from dated.

4 out of 5 stars LL really nailed this one!.......2007-07-16

Man...I can't tell you how refreshing it's been to listen to a well-written and well-produced Rap album with varied and original subject matter: there isn't a single trite and formulaic "gangsta" cliché on the entire album! :-) LL Cool J was my favorite rapper from around '86 to 1988: BIGGER AND DEFFER was one of my first two hip-hop albums (the other was PAID IN FULL--even at 9 years old, I really knew how to pick `em) and I used to listen to it constantly. Although I never heard the album (and I still haven't till this day--I need to make it a point to pick up a copy), LL really lost me with the singles from WALKING WITH A PANTHER. That was a vibrant and dynamic time in hip-hop: the field was highly competitive and the music was changing rapidly. There was so much great material being put out by so many different rappers that a single lackluster effort could potentially end a career. That's why LL starts off the title track (one of the most downright fiery and invigorating songs that I've ever heard) by yelling, "Don't call it a comeback, I've been here for years!" Most artists in most genres make "comeback" albums after years of putting out shoddy material, but not so in the world of late 80's/early 90's hip-hop. Things have changed quite a bit though and now many rappers make entire careers out of putting out crap material. There are some incredibly well-written songs on this album: there are no grand aspirations (and really, I would characterize Marley Marl's tasteful, practical and never overdone production the same way) but the straightforward lyrics are still consistently clever. He has a confident and commanding delivery whether he's playing the swagger-filled lover man, the crafty storyteller, or the battle-ready MC, and he consistently has some of the best timing and phrasing that I've ever heard. This could possibly be LL's best album and it's certainly one of Rap music's greatest works. This is fun and entertaining feel good music that serves as a strong example of the surplus of great material that was released during hip-hop's most fruitful and inspired period. This is essential listening for anyone interested in rap music, and it should be really refreshing to those who were unfortunately introduced to Rap after the majority of the genre was inundated with tired, trite and predictable gangsta clichés. Another listen to this album should also be really refreshing for those of us that loved hip-hop in its heyday: it should remind us of just what made us fall in love with it in the first place. This one will be making its way back into my regular rotation.

4 out of 5 stars Would still KNOCK most mc's albums OUT of the park now!!.......2007-03-07

After the luke-warm reaction to his "Walking With A Panther" album LL went back to his old stomping grounds in an attempt to rejuvenate his talents and come back out stronger. It was here while his grandmother (Big Momma)spawned the words of encouragement to her disillusioned grandson "Just Knock'em Out" and so we got this album. LL promptly hooked up with Marley Marl and together they came up with this, the 1st of 2 albums they did together. Marley's production skills were+still are legendary. His beats are bone crunching and the samples that accompany them are always original. They percussion on this album in the form of piano riffs and guitar licks were simply mindblowing as they were used in perfect ration to the rock hard beats and funky basslines. All of this was before LL even ripped a verse!!!!!! Around this time LL was in afew beefs with Kool Moe Dee and Ice-T so alot of his verses were heavy battle type rhymes were he took no prisoners. The title track alone was, is and always will be 1 of the greatest diss records of ALL TIME!! The opening track "The Boomin' System" was about the systems that heads were fitting into their cars and that whole car culture that was peaking in the early 90's. The legendary line "2 mile an hour so everybody sees you" still gets me amped. "Around The Way Girl" was huge back then and still holds its own as a decent rap ballad by an mc that has mastered the genre. "Eat 'Em Up L Chill", "Mr. Good Bar" and "Murdergram" are all tight head nodders that showcase his impressive, more amped, stronger, rejuvinated style to the tee. "Murdergram" is a live performance that will literally blow your mind, what breath control??!! "Cheesy Rat Blues" is a tale about how the tide can turn and you could be left without a pot to p*ss in and what could happen to the people that are supposedly by your side, in times like this. A very personal track. "Farmers Blvd" was a track were LL shouts out his crew and afew of them for some mic time and put it down nicely. Next you hear the immortal words "c'mon man..." and the horns and then all hell breaks loose with "Mama Said Knock You Out" exploding through the speakers. One of my all time favourite hiphop songs EVER. "Milky Cereal" explores the subject of getting laid. Nice beat and funny rhymes. "Jingling Baby" is a superior version than the 1 on the "Walking With A Panther" album, in my opinion. Marley's production is top notch. "To Da Break Of Dawn" is another diss joint where LL rips apart Ice-T and Kool Moe Dee with relative ease to be honest over a smooth hard beat laced with acid tongued rhymes that Im sure would still sting those cats now. "6 Minutes Of Pleasure" and "The Power Of God" were the only tracks that I thought were weaker back then and even more now. The last track that I havent mentioned is "Illegal Search", a humourous tale about the police and their treatment of his race but with a nice funny twist. Still after 16years this is a soundbomb. A timeless classic. He and hiphop certainly dont make joints like this anymore.

1 out of 5 stars This is NOT the Original Recording Rereleased.......2007-02-15

If you're looking for the original recording this is NOT it.

The parts of "The Boomin' System" wherein the lyrics are supposed to be "...pass the Heineken..." and "Roll up a fat one..." are silenced out. The CD is fine other than that; my search continues. <. <

5 out of 5 stars BLOW FOR BLOW, L.L. NEVER SWUNG THIS TOUGH! .......2007-02-12

For all the hip hop heads that thought Uncle L had fallen by the wayside by 1990 was suckered punch with this banga. Marley Marl helped LL redeem his street credibility which led him back to greatness. This album contains his ultimate statement of purpose in the title track and one of his best skirt chasing tracks with " Around The Way Girl".

His boasting tracks were business as usual but they were as powerful as ever with "Eat em up L chill" and "Murdergram" (one of his most ferocious boasting tracks next to "I'm Bad"). Outside of the of the egotistical boasting and playerism, he does have other things to say with "Illegal Search" and "Power of God" (an ode to the higher power that works pretty good without sounding overwrought).

Few hip hop albums sound as varied and as hungry as Mama. Unlike most hip hop albums, this one has aged gracefully. Eventhough we will never L.L. like this again, this is the album where his legacy lies and where he earned the title of the G.O.A.T.

Sometimes it's fun to take the albums of latter-day rockers and play spot-the-influence, and on Mama Said, it's like shooting fish in a barrel. "Always on the Run," with its punchy horns and emphatic vocals, is cribbed from Sly Stone. "What Goes Around Comes Around," with its understated arrangement and Kravitz's falsetto, is straight out of Superfly-era Curtis Mayfield. "Stand By My Woman" and "All I Ever Wanted," meanwhile, are so directly copped from John Lennon--lyrically, sonically, attitudinally--that it ought to be actionable. Younger fans might not care about any of this, of course, because in and of themselves, Kravitz's songs are tuneful, and they do rock. --Daniel Durchholz

5 out of 5 stars Lenny Always Stands By His Influences.......2006-10-10

Lenny Kravitz:flower child throwback who,like Prince and Terence Trent D'Arby before him used the bi racial/multi instrumentalist/eclectic style to his best advantage.What does Lenny Krzvitz have that's different from those two artists?Simple-his sound is unapologetically retro.Unlike other retro artists though Lenny even copies the production style,right down to the analog tapes he swears by.That being said 'Mama Said',although recorded in 1991 at the peak of the new jack and grunge revolutions might as well have been recorded in 1973 because there are no synthesizers or heavy electronics on this album-it's ALL live instrumentation.And while very imatative of his influences-namely John Lennon,Curtis Mayfield,Jimi Hendrix and Sly Stone those are the best influences to have and he makes their own sounds even better!Much of the CD has the feel of an epic album lengh excursion."Fields Of Joy","The Difference Is Why" and "When The Morning Turns To Night" all have superb arrangements and,uncharacteristically for Kravitz do blend his influences into a cohesive whole,althought still a highly retro neo psychedelic one."Always On The Run" is a slashing funk jam right out of the Sly/Funkadelic school of psychelic funk with punchy horns and Lenny's rowdy singing.Two of the best songs are very Lennon inspired-"Stand By Your Woman" and "All I Ever Wanted",the latter of which actually features Sean Lennon as a guest writer and lyricist.On Lenny's voice however the Lennon-style vocal reverb sounds a lot heavier.Of course one of the two most impressive songs here is the big hit "It Ain't Over Til It's Over",a classic Philly/Chicago soul type ballad with a nice midtempo beat.Lenny's falsetto is beautiful,the arrangement is in the pocket and you can even dance to it-I think it's my favorite Kravitz song.The other is another kind of soul-a very Curtis Mayfield sounding "What Goes Around Comes Around"-I have to give Lenny credit for his DEAD ON Mayfield vocal impression,that is until Karl Denson goes WILD on the sax and the whole songs turns into a totally free jazz extravaganza."Flowers For Zoe" is another song here that's great-a very folksy soul kind of feal with a nice gentle vocal.Overall 'Mama Said' is enough to give Kravitz detractors (and there are an awful lot) a sense that given the proper musical balance Kravitz would be able to synthesize all of his many musical ideas and shadings into something cohesive and distinctly his.But that hardly matters since it seems,especially if an artist is not caucasion (and even if they are) that they will immediately be accused of ripping off or too heavily borrowing from their influences and since this style seems to be such a big part of who Lenny Kravitz is he takes even more flack for it then many.But 'Mama Said' actually does a lot to bring out the many talents and amazing songwriting of Kravitz and gives probably the best impression of him available.

4 out of 5 stars Love Lenny.......2006-02-25

This is the first cd of Lenny Kravitz that I bought many years ago but lost in a divorce. I just recently replaced it and love it just as much as when I first heard it. Lenny rocks! His new stuff is awesome too

5 out of 5 stars The Difference Is Why.......2005-09-20

I believe an artist produces his best work when he is struggling through personal issues, In Love/Out of Love, or in some deep introspection. Its all of the above with this awesome album by Lenny Kravitz. He fuses 60's/early 70's acoustic soul and rock like I've never heard anyone do before. An excellent voice, heartfelt lyrics and a acoustic makes this album much different than others. Buy, don't copy or download this album. Why? The difference is why.

5 out of 5 stars Better than Lenny's debut???????.......2004-12-05

Very little reviews for such a popular artist.

And all I ask is why? As far as I'm concerned, this was Lenny at his apex. His debut release quenched my thirst for music which wasn't being released at the time. Mama Said, in turn, was more complete and a much crisper sound.

Sure there are influences throughout this release.......but what record doesn't have them? When I saw the "It ain't over.." video. I for one was thinking The Doors "Touch Me" video.

Other favorites;

Stand By My Woman
All I Ever Wanted
Fields of Joy

Not a bad track on here and nothing corporate at all.

For those who know what I'm talking about.......this WAS Lenny at his best......just like REM...just like U2....they all drifted from what got them there, to just putting out music having a catchy riff to apparently satisfy the record co's. I will assume this comes with age???

A pure rock and roll classic in my book!

5 out of 5 stars Sound Over Substance.......2004-07-10

Lenny Kravitz's affection for the '60s and '70s runs much deeper than mere matters of his retro attire, or even his songwriting; deeply involved in the production of his own albums, he is, for instance, militantly in favor of analog recording methods that use tubes rather than transistors. Many newcomer's have failed at this unorthodox technique. The mistake is foolishly assumed that the method is perfected by just turning the reverb off - goes from the microphone to the amplifiers to compressors into EQ units that have tubes and back to the tape machine. Lenny has simply perfected a lost art.

Mama Said contains elements of Curtis Mayfield and Jimi Hendrix and Lenny's obsessions of Prince and John Lennon. Treading away from the psychedelic fixations of his debut, Lenny orchestrates his influences flawlessly - Mama Said sounds like it was recorded in 1972. The production is so carefully done that from start to finish the entire record captivates listeners - sweet soul and fuzzy hard rock. Mama Said demands repeat and is certainly a aural treat.

The addictive Philly-Soul sound of "It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over" is simply spellbinding. Though the rhythm is based around Earth Wind & Fire's "Thats The Way Of The World," it seduces listeners with sweeping strings, seductive horns, and lush arrangements to the deep rhythms. The number is smoother - even slicker - than anything Lenny has ever recorded. Most listeners will be pressed to believe Lenny wrote it himself. He successfully duplicates Curtis Mayfield on the extremely catchy "What Goes Around Comes Around" - which is possessed by a deep, dark groove, trademarked wah-wah guitar, stinging brass, and silky falsetto.

Sly & The Family Stone collide with Jimi Hendrix on the rampaging "Always On The Run" and retro Lenny displays his Lennon obsession with perfection on the brilliant "All I Ever Wanted" - which Sean Ono Lennon co-wrote and plays piano on. "Stand by My Woman" also borrows Lennon's signature echo-delayed vocals/piano signature for its verses, but shifts into lush harmony soul for the chorus. Often billed as the "divorce album," Mama Said is the srongest set of Lenny songs to date, with little filler and a close ear to getting that perfect sound. Though some of the lyrics have been painfully outdated, it doesn't really matter. Mama Said is just that great to listen to - it's a near flawless sound.

This CD contains four versions of L.L. Cool J's #17 hit, "Mama Said Knock You Out". It's a great rap song. The four versions of the song here all have the same rap by L.L., but they all have different instrumental backing tracks. Here is the track listing:

1. "Mama Said Knock You Out" (Original Recipe)
2. "Mama Said Knock You Out" (Hot Mix)
3. "Mama Said Knock You Out" (For Steering Pleasure)
4. "Mama Said Knock You Out" (7 A.M. Mix)

4 out of 5 stars Classic Joint.......2004-07-01

One of Cool J's best singles, this song delivered the timeless hook "I'm gonna knock you out! Mama said knock you out!" Cool J had a lot of emotion in his music back in the day, not sappyness (except for "I Need Love"), I mean anger emotion! This is one his hardest rap songs up there with "I'm Bad" and "Rock the Bells" before he went all soft. His delivery wasn't the best in this particular song, but this one's still a timeless joint.

      This CD has 4 tracks 1. Mama Said(5:20) 2. King Nothing-Live(7:51) 3. Whiplash-Live(4:51) 4. Mama Said-Edit(4:42) In the beginning of King Nothing you get to hear James talk to the crowd, then play a little bit of "It Ain't Like That" by Alice in Chains..but this live version of King Nothing got me back into listening Load & appreciating it more. The live version of Whiplash gives you a good dose of speed metal at its very best, James really gets the crowd into this song and it is played without flaw. The song ends with the intro to "My Friend of Misery", a nice touch. The Mama Said Edit skips the beginning guitar work, but still a good song. It has a country/blues feel to it. I know it's not what you're use to hearing from MetallicA, but at least it's not Rap/Rock. Highly recommended.

      SUPERB.

      5 out of 5 stars good song, great live tracks.......2004-03-04

      I bought this CD for the live tracks. I'll admit that in the beginning I didn't think much of this song, but it has grown on me. I think that if any other band than a metal band had released it, it would have gone somewhere. Unfortunately the niche audience doesn't appreciate it. However if you want something loud, heavy, and awesome to listen to, the live tracks should more than satisfy. So What and Creeping Death are completely AWESOME. They rock so much that it makes the CD worthwhile. The other 2 live tracks are also good, but not really on par with the first 2. buy it today and scream your favorite obscenities with So What!

      5 out of 5 stars Load on Mama!.......2003-03-02

      This song iz particullarly one o' tha better songs on the "Load"
      CD. Don't be misinformed. This iz softer than MetallicA's past works o' art. It has some country features written in w/ MetallicA's extremely unique style. Any true Metallifuk would be honored to purchase this rare single.

      5 out of 5 stars Yeah!METALLICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......1999-03-23

      THIS RULES!METALLICA RULES!IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT SUCK IT!!!!!!!!!!

      5 out of 5 stars Something for everyone.......1998-10-20

      Well worth the price for the true MetallicA fan. I hated Mama Said the first few times I heard it but it has become one of my favorites. The unproduced demo version (track 6) has some very mellow licks and noodles from Jamz. The version of So What not only rocks but is also hysterical. And for us old-time 1980s Metallica fans, there is a killer live version of Whiplash and Creeping Death. If you like the rare imports, snag this one.
