Sir Mix-A-Lot - Swass.......2006-09-18
Sir Mix-A-Lot burst out onto the scene with his debut release, "Swass." Stemming such singles as "Square Dance Rap" and "Posse on Broadway", Mix definitely brings some new style to the game. This album went on to sell over 1.7 million copies.

Very solid debut from Sir Mix. Most of the tracks have a very old school feel to them which is great. There's only two tracks I don't care for but the rest of the album is great.
What up MIX..........2005-12-24
This is great Ol'School album from your boy MIX-A-LOT. For me this makes the 4th time getting the SWASS Album (2 Cassette-2CD's). Another must have from my personal collection!!!
One of the best ever. Please forgive 'Baby Got Back'.......2005-11-01
OK so it almost 2006 and this last weekend I am still trying to convince some stranger that this was one of the best hip-hop albums ever made. I dont know why, its not as socially responsible as Public Enemy, it doesn't flow like A Tribe Called Quest, and it doesn't jam like Jurassic 5, BUT ITS DAMN GOOD! I DON'T KNOW WHY. I remember trying to convince someone back in 1988 how good this album was as they nodded their head to the racy lyrics of Too Short. I am gonna keep trying Mix-a-lot.
FYI - I made sure this CD was playing when my first son was born - well at least on the way to the hospital.
A Classic Old School Rap Album, But A Flawed Reissue..........2004-10-05
Unfortunately, many people have pigeon-holed Sir Mix-A-Lot as a "Weird Al" style rapper who busts rhymes about big butts and buttermilk biscuits. Sadly, this just isn't true. Swass is a pristine example of old-school rap that was just starting to become mainstream when this ablum was initally released. As well, Mix-A-Lot helped bring Seattle to the rap mainstream when most artists were based either in New York or L.A.
I must admit that Swass is one of my favorite rap albums ever. Each song has it's own individual flavor. And although the subject matter (i.e. Biscuits, etc.) may be stupid by today's standards, the rhymes still flow nicely and are well thought-out. However, this reissue has a serious flaw that simply cannot be overlooked. The version of "Rippin'" contained on this release has been remixed and it isn't good. Although the primary beat is the same, it seems that Mix-A-Lot completely re-rapped the song to try and update it with "hipper" language. It doesn't flow well and pretty much ruins the song. This is huge because Rippin' was one of the great standout singles (along with Posse on Broadway and Buttermilk Biscuits) on Swass. What makes this even more perplexing is that none of the other songs on this reissue have been touched.
So in the end, it turns out that Swass is still a classic example of old school rap. However, if you are looking for the original version of the song Rippin', skip this reissue and go try and buy the original release in a used record store.
ya'll gonna make me lose my cool..........2003-02-14
man, i'm tired of hearin' all you haters slam my boy mix-a-lot. he's the shizzl for rizzl, dog. porky-joe don't know what he's talking about. maybe if i dropped some "heat rocks" up in his a$$ he'd feel me. beeatch!
anyhoo, this album has so many sweet beats on it, i actually threw up the first time i heard it. i dropped my first copy in the urinal at school three days after i picked it up at cd whorehouse, so i haven't listened to it in about 8 months. however, i do know that my bowels are needing to move. i'll finish this review later. peace out-->

OLD SCHOOL AT ITS BEST.......2007-01-29
This album is what rap SHOULD be all about. It's fun and bass heavy and just enjoyable to listen to. Sometimes yes, it does get a little cheesy, but that is a big part of the charm to this album. Think of the b@lls it takes to open up your debut CD with a song called "Buttermilk Biscuits" where you rap with an effect on your voice that makes you sound like a chipmunk. I give mix-a-lot a lot of credit for that and for always keeping a sense of humor in rap music which is definately lacking today. This album also used very inventive beats. The music for the song "swass" is very simple but also very unique and sounds very different than your average rap song of that time. It also inspired whoever it is to rip off the chorus line "don't you wish your boyfriend was swass like me?" just change the word "swass" to "hot" and you have yourself a hit. Anyway, bottom line is I think this is a timeless album that is very fun to listen to.
Some of you Rooty-Poots wish that you could, be a Hip-Hop Soldier!.......2006-12-17
"Now I'm your big mall dropper, mud duck stuffer. Fila's on the bottom and adidas on the cover." Most everyone who grew up listening to Hip-Hop in the 80's and 90's recognizes those lines right away from the classic "Buttermilk Biscuits" and the legendary SWASS. Sir Mix-a-Lot is best remembered as the "Big Butts Guy", but he made some awesome records before and after Mack Daddy, and SWASS was one of them. The funny thing though is two of the most popular songs were by Kid Sensation, "Square Dance Rap" and of course, "Buttermilk Biscuits". I remember my dad buying this album when I was a kid,
and I loved it ever since. "Posse on Broadway", "SWASS", "Iron Man", and "Hip-Hop Soldier" are my favorites (including the two songs mentioned earlier). This album is mostly about braggin' and humor where Seminar, his next album, was more serious. If you like Mix, then buy this. If not, buy it anyway Rooty-Poot!!

Swass is everywhere.......1998-05-14
Swass is everywhere. We cruise to "Posse on Broadway", we drop mad lyrics like "Swass" and nobody busts crazier rhymes than "Buttermilk Biscuits"! It's absolutely the most Swass-dope every put on vinyl - if your record collection doesn't have this you'd better re-think your collection criteria, baby.
