5 out of 5 stars MJ Cole easily matches the Brilliance of "Sincere"...........2004-03-22

Since 2000's `Sincere' album, M J Cole has been pretty quiet on the recording front (apart from a handful of remix work), but he confidently reminds us here, why he's possibly one of the most refined & elegant producers in 2 Step/Garage. Never straying to far from the template & approach that earmarked `Sincere'. There's a plethora of guest vocalists here, that provide the lyrical content for Cole's extravagant String & beat arrangements. Nu-soul torch bearer `Jill Scott' injects Soul Passion into the 2 step breaks of "Perfect Pitch". Dancehall gets a mainstream makeover (less controversial) with the booty Shake of "Elephant Man's - Mad Man". Hip-Hop is seamlessly integrated into the album with U.K. rapper `Fallacy's' quick fire rhymes upping the tempo considerable with agreeably pleasing results. As is Cole's trademark, sumptuous string arrangements underpin a handful of beautiful tracks, but more surprising is the intimate piano instrumental to opens the album.....and confirms this album easily as worthy as "Sincere".

    5 out of 5 stars Fantastic !!! A Must Have For Every Collection !!!.......2001-05-31

    Not only is Nadine an enchanting songstress, but much to my surprise and extreme delight, she writes her own lyrics. I have listenend to her CD at least 100 times, and never tire of it. I think her entire Cd is wonderful, but by far "Cut To The Chase", the title song, that Nadine Chase wrote herself is by far the best song I have heard in years. BUY IT !!!

    5 out of 5 stars WOW - Great first CD.......2001-04-03

    I live in the Boston area and have had the pleasure to hear Nadine live on a number of occassions; enough to start seeking out her performances. I picked up her new CD to round out my female jazz vocal collection. To my pleasant surprise, it has been monopolizing my CD player ever since. It really is superb! The CD is well produced, highlights her great phrasing along with the excellent instrumentalists that accompany her.

    It really is a nice addition to an evening by the fire with someone you love.

        I'm writing this review because I don't understand why more people aren't listening to Chase Phoenix. This is my small effort to correct the situation. Cut to the Chase is a really smooth album with tight rhymes, hot beats from the eminently talented Blockhead, and some quality guest spots from Aesop and others. It all comes together well. With lyrics that convey some meaning rather than just serve as thoughtless fills between choruses, Chase is a bit like Slug, except the music is a lot more fun to listen to. Still not mainstream enough to get serious airplay, but that's in itself reflective of the care he clearly puts into his craft. This guy's one of the hottest new MCs in the game; this debut album is definitely worth picking up.

        4 out of 5 stars Excellent and on-point - but not quite a classic........2004-04-27

        When I first heard Chase Phoenix's album "Cut to the Chase" on the BattleAxe website, more specifically the cuts "Most People Know", "In-Crowd", and "Anti-Social Behavior", I was mildly impressed...the key word being mild. I went out and bought it at a local record shop a couple of weeks later, and was again mildly impressed. Chase is the newest acquisition of Canadian / L.A. based hip-hop label BattleAxe Records, and thier subsidary, Underworld Records (who are responsible for distributing the "Lyrics of Fury" compilations and Moka Only's first album "Moka Only is...Ron Contour"). He has an impressive list of credentials to go along with this album...it features production by Dub-L and Blockhead, and guest verses from Aesop Rock and Jemini the Gifted One. For the most part, both the guest spots and production are tight. The subject matter is good. Chase's voice is very listenable. However, there's just something that didn't sit well with me...Chase's rhymes. Chase is one of those MCs who, like Prevail of Swollen Members, and the prince of nerd rap, Aesop Rock, who has a tendency to write a lot of rhymes that don't, well...exactly rhyme. A lot of the words sound vaugely familiar...but I'm not a huge fan of hip-hop that just sounds like talking, with no rhyming. Other than that, this is an extremely good album, but be advised - it's only recommended for the heads. Four stars.
        Standout tracks are "Feel So..."feat. Jemini the Gifted One, the Talib Kweli/Get By rip-off track "Twentysomething" and "In Crowd".
