A teenage heroin addict, B.G.'s always had stories to tell, dating back to his first album, True Story, which he recorded when he was just 11. Nevertheless, B.G. ascended to fame with "Bling Bling," a love song to ostentation that epitomized his label, Cash Money Records, at its peak: unchecked excess in lieu of dark thug anthems. Those were the good times, and there was nary a hater in sight. Apparently, times are getting harder 'round Cash Money Boulevard, as reflected by B.G.'s latest, Checkmate. Gone are the epic tales of jewelry and cars, the promises of helicopter rides and fellatio. As Cash Money president Bryan "Baby" Williams says on the album's intro: "This lil dude rap about sunflower seeds, and somebody got killed; he rapped about stunting, and somebody got killed; he rapped about babymamas, and somebody got killed." That said, here the Baby Gangsta gets back to doing the killing himself. On "Gun Slinger," over a wicked pan-flute arrangement, he promises to "bust hollows like Cupid bust arrows," leaving "your family grieving, saying 'Amazing Grace'." He's no kinder on "What's That Smell," warning, "When it come down to you and me, it won't be me." On "Bounce with Me," he even indicts the bling economy: "Tie your family up / They all on the floor, nigga / By all means, whatever it takes to get green, I do, 'cause I wanna bling." Even when he was celebrating excess, B.G. conveyed arrogance with an easy, slurred drawl. Back to recounting tales of the danger zone, his tenor evokes even more gravitas, which results in a set of songs that are compelling and occasionally downright scary. In Cash Money parlance, this album is a risk, and completely forsakes the formula that's earned the label hit upon hit. But perhaps the clique is prescient, merely the first to recognize that hip-hop's Platinum Age is coming to a close, and that the streets are as real as ever. --Jon Caramanica

4 out of 5 stars Dont king him just yet (3 and 1/2 stars).......2007-07-20

This album was BG's last album on Cash Money before he broke camp. Now you know when somebody leaves a label, they usually make a bad album before they leave(Think Project English). This album is not bad but it does have some suspect moments on it. Gunslinger is good and his team up with Lil Wayne on U Know How We Do was cool. What's That Smell with Turk is great even though that hook is hilarious. BG is not bad at telling stories and that is evidenced in This N**** Die and He Used 2 Be A Man(the deepest song he's made which talks about so-called tough guys who get tossed up by punks in prison). Change The World with The Hot Boys is an earnest attempt at a positive song and its also a highlight track. The fishy moments: his first single I Know with Lil Wayne was lukewarm even with the dope beat by Mannie Fresh. Hennesey & XTC with Big Tymers is trash enough to make people who do X quit immediately. Press One is boring. Bounce With Me has a tight beat but BG's rhymes on it were unenthusiatic. Problems is plain ol' weak and so is the kickoff track To My People. Get In Line with Juvenile is also suspect. The rest of the album is no problem and those Mannie Fresh skits were funny as hell(especially the first Tyma Talkin skit). Bottom Line: While Checkmate is not BG's best work(that would be Heart Of The Streetz Vol.1) its far from his worst work(undeniably Life After Cash Money is). It has good qualities as well as its fair share of bad qualities. All in all its still worth checking out. Standout Tracks: GUNSLINGER, U KNOW HOW WE DO, WHATS THAT SMELL, THIS N**** DIE, CHANGE THE WORLD, JUNGLE, RUN WITH MY CHOPPER, AH HA and HE USED 2 BE A MAN.

4 out of 5 stars Too many tracks.......2006-01-11

I know its now the style to have 20+ tracks,when is the last time you acctually listened to a whole 20 tracks?
I guess its better for a consumer, but not good for a critic.
Checkmate is still a classic though.

5 out of 5 stars B.G. Gon Stay Real.......2005-09-16

Dis cd came out right befo Cash Money almost fell off for tryin too much commercial $@#!. Dis cd harder than Choppa City In The Ghetto but it got slept on. It definately a classic doe. GO GET IT!!!

5 out of 5 stars Really good album.......2005-08-24

This is a really good album, but for B.G. it's kind of average. This album has a really violent style, which is good because it suits B.G. My favourite songs are "To My People", "Gun Slinger", "This N***a Die", "Change The World", "Hennesy & XTC", "I Know", "Problems" & "Ah Ha".

5 out of 5 stars Downright scary but creative........2003-11-14

B.G. achieved a certain amount of commercial success with his platinum album Chopper City in the Ghetto. It's follow-up Checmate is a completely different album. Tose looking for flashy cuts like "Bling Bling" might be slightly dissapointed. The album is perhaps the grimiest I have heard in a long time and it is not intended for the faint hearted.
With beats that don't reach for commercial acceptance coupled with B.G.'S dark and blatant rhymes, this album is a novelty as far as Cash Money albums go. Tracks like "Gun Slinger" and "Problems" are often quite frightening. However, Gizzle is succesful when adopting the not-so-violent approach on cuts like "Press One" and"U know how we do".
Quite simply, Checkmate is the best album released from the Cash Money camp in a while. Warning:This album aint for everybody!

          Product Description

          Film Score Monthly brings to CD more outstanding early work from the legendary John Williams: the classic "crime jazz" soundtrack to Checkmate plus the big-band showtunes collection Rhythm in Motion, both dating from 1961, when the composer was known as "Johnny" Williams. John Williams began his career as a Hollywood pianist, performing in the Columbia Pictures orchestra and on various projects like Henry Mancini's Peter Gunn. Williams moved into composing primarily on television, before his eventual reign as the most successful feature film composer of modern times. Checkmate -- a crime thriller series in the tradition of Peter Gunn -- was both Williams's first series as primary theme and episode composer, and his first album as a featured artist for Columbia Records. These two vintage Columbia LPs are remastered from the original stereo master tapes for sterling sound quality. (The LPs at the time were meant to show off first-rate stereo imaging.) The booklet features a lengthy essay by Williams expert Jeff Eldridge, including new insight from original LP producer Jim Harbert.

          5 out of 5 stars Sheer Brilliance.......2006-06-11

          First off, I gotta admit I bought this limited edition cd on the strength of "Rhythm in Motion" alone. I've been waiting for this one for decades and it is simply one of my favorite albums of all time. I'd never listened to the Checkmate soundtrack before, or even watched the series for that matter, so this is just a new added treasure for me.

          This is an outstanding production from Sony BMG. The thick booklet includes interesting commentary about the early career of Johnny (now John) Williams, some photos, complete album cover and liner replications as well as complete player personnel listings (not available on the previous Rhythm in Motion) and analyses of each tune. The musicians are the same basically for both records and feature such outstanding cats as Conrad Gozzo, Pete Candoli, Vince de Rosa, Ted Nash, Gene Cipriano, Jimmy Rowles, Joe Mondragon and Shelly Manne. On "Rhythm", John's father and brother do outstanding work on percussion. The remastered sound of both records is excellent and as sharp as the day it was recorded.

          Checkmate follows a more or less standard approach to murder-mystery scoring ala perhaps Henry Mancini. But Williams infuses much color in his own concept, making this a truly wonderful listening experience. Some of my favorites are the opening theme as well as "Hassle in the Castle" with its debt to Mancini, and the loping "The Bishop's Retreat."

          "Rhythm in Motion" comes at you with all the subtlety of a 12 gauge shotgun. Opening with a rousing "Fasctinatin' Rhythm" it doesn't let down one iota with the concluding "Buckle Down Winsocki." Truly brilliant writing and playing throughout and not one ballad in the mix either. Despite all the percussive fireworks creating sheer pandemonium, there is narry a wasted or ill thought out note or "ching" anywhere. It all makes sense and adds up to one of the most joyous listening experiences for big band/percussion enthusiasts (who like a good measure of humor) imaginable. No small measure to this album's success must be given to Hall of Fame drummer Shelly Manne who fuses all the tricky ensembles with his usual brilliance and execution. This album may be a bit too much for regular listeners but for those with true musical inclinations, it's sheer heaven on earth. The fact that this album didn't sell well during it's initial release does not detract one iota from its musical value.

          Everyone knows of John Williams importance in the world of film scoring and Checkmate and Rhythm attest to his early brilliance. And I just can't imagine that Williams has lost nostalgia for these early efforts.
          But don't mess around folks, this cd is limited to only 1000 issues and it's already down to 999!

          Amazon.com

          The title of Marleen Gorris's film (based on Vladimir Nabokov's The Defense) refers to a chess strategy, and this tale of a socially challenged game master could be seen as a chess-world parallel to Shine. It's also a grand showcase for the budding talents of French composer Alexandre Desplat, whose sprightly, surprising score is one of the film's greatest revelations. Using spare piano melodies interwoven with a masterful use of the London Symphony Orchestra, Desplat's score is classically oriented (and is seamlessly augmented by portions of Shostakovich's Jazz Suite No. 2), yet evokes shifting colors of modernism, romance, and mystery that keep the listener intrigued. Using a light melodic touch that can turn darkly enigmatic in a heartbeat, Desplat's work here often recalls the music of Delerue and Morricone, and hints at great things to come. - Jerry McCulley

          5 out of 5 stars absolutely breathtaking..........2005-11-10

          i don't pretend to know much about the film score lexicon, nor how to *critique* a film score. however, i do know a good song or a good score when i hear it.

          'the luzhin defence' strengths lie in what it is not. most of today's film scores drfit between the bombastic and melodramatic, often within the same score. even heavyweights like james horner and john williams occassionally drift into loud louds and soft softs. of course there are times and places for both, but sometimes such a score is difficult to sit down and listen to in one sitting.

          alexander desplat's score, however, remains muted and restrained--and beautifully so. it's obvious desplats' in command of the music throughout, though it never sounds held back. the entire score evokes mood and tone, and commands the listener's attention throughout just to hear what comes next. i personally listen to this soundtrack often when I read. it's unintrusive, yet attention-grabbing at the same time because it's just such lovely music. the best music, in my opinion, is imagistic and 'the luzhin defence' is full of lush imagery. i've never seen the film, but it's not hard to imagine scenes and setting while listening to the score. and best of all--it's emotional and never sentimental.

          alexander desplat, i assume, will be in high demand very shortly. let's hope so because this is one of the finest scores i've ever heard. buy this cd--it will not disappoint you.

          5 out of 5 stars Absolutely magnificent!!.......2004-01-26

          I had not heard of composer Alexandre Desplat until this score, BUT I shall most certainly be looking for his future compositions.

          If a masterpiece painting were to be put to music, this is what I could imagine it would sound like. The varying moods, the tenderness and the strength within are extremely evocative.

          Monsieur Desplat is certainly to be admired.

          5 out of 5 stars "original score blends classical/crossover music ~ Superb!".......2001-04-13

          Silva Screen's latest release ~ "THE LUZHIN DEFENCE", is a classical/crossover score of music ~ composed, orchestrated and conducted by Alexandre Desplat with The London Symphony Orchestra. An added plus is the ~ "WALTZ NO. 2 FROM SUITE NO. 2", composed by Dimitri Shostakovich.

          The story-line and score are a perfect match ~ based on a story by Vladmire Nabokov ~ directed by Academy Award-winner Marleen Gorris, our story is set in the late 1920's. Strange events take place, when an unworldly chess grand master (John Turturro) comes to the Italian Lakes to play the game of his life ~ meeting a lady (Emily Watson), who is soon to be married to another (matched by her family). Thus the story begins, upon meeting the two fall hopelessly in love ~ the lady shows him a world outside of his chess playing ~ which makes the story even more interesting, as the two worlds collide.

          Want to thank ~ Alexandre Desplat (producer) ~ Reynold da Silva & James Fitzpatrick (executive producers) ~ John Luard Timperley (recording engineer) ~ Tom Jenkins (asst. engineer) ~ David Stoner (coordinator) ~ Silva America ~ sharing this original score with classical arrangements and rare qualities which reach deep into our musical souls!
