10.08

Down to Earth (Monie Love, 1990)

For such a bubbly cover it's a surprisingly negative album.  Other than a couple of dance songs it's mostly criticizing other people.  Not that they aren't valid criticisms.  She never reaches the heights of her verse on Ladies First but it's a solid album throughout.

Choice cuts: Ring My Bell, Just Don't Give a Damn, Swiney Swine




Northstar (Northstar, 2004)

Well I found the album with the guy who cut his dick off in the bargain bin at Amoeba.  The first time around I thought this was trash, but it's decently fun once you get used to it.  Some of the beats are crazy out of place, and none of them are remotely sophisticated for a project the RZA was so involved in.  The Killarmy features are the best verses by far.

Choice cuts: We Got It, Nuttin, Destiny
