    dlewild (Film) Artist: Movie Review Title: Idlewild (Film) Rating: Reviewed by: Oyama Caviness xml "The A's" dynamic duo strikes again. This time not in record sales, but with their big screen debut Idlewild (Universal Pictures). With the help writer and director Bryan Barner, once again Outkast takes you on a magical ride, this time to Idlewild, GA where two small town friends get caught up in big time gangsta drama. Idlewild tells the tales of gangstas and hustlers in a creative, corky way. Andre Benjamin and Antwan Patton do not give overly impressive acting performances simply because their characters Percival and Rooster, respectively, are not a far stretch from the Andre 3000 and Big Boi you all know as Outkast. However, a stellar cast with the likes of Ben Vereen, Cicely Tyson, Ving Rhames, and Terrence Howard make Idlewild worthy of any Hollywood accolades it may receive. The compelling and layered storylines keep the audiences attention throughout the film. Percival, an unpopular, timid musician finds a love who encourages him to reach his true potential and follow his dreams. Rooster, the outgoing, street smart performer who looks out for Percival, maneuvers through grimy gangsta politics while trying to maintain a stable family structure. Bryan Barber, the mastermind behind many Outkast videos including the award winning "Hey Ya" pushes the visual envelope with captivating "church" (the club in the movie) scenes. Outkast favorites like "Bowtie" and "Church" are performed with uptempo swing choreography from Tony winner Hinton Battle and touched with subtle ATL flava reminiscent of the the "The Way You Move" video. Throughout the film, fast paced scenes are contrasted by slow motion isolation which takes the cinematography to a level in line with the box creativity of Outkast themselves. Unfortunately for viewers that are not die hard Outkast fans, the musical performances may seem a bit corny at times. These musical elements, which serve as the soundtrack and upcoming Outkast album, are edited brilliantly between scenes which only add to the dramatic storyline. A steamy sex scene between Percival (Andre) and his romantic interest Angel (Paula Patton) more than make up for any disappointments-an added treat Andre 3000 groupies are sure to enjoy. Overall, Idlewild is an entertaining musical told in a bizarre fashion that only Outkast could manage to pull off.

    ALLHIPHOP REVIEWS: Notorious C.O.P. (Book)
    Saturday. 9.2.06 9:08 pm
    Artist: Book Review
    Title: Notorious C.O.P. (Book)
    Rating:
    Reviewed by: Sidik Fofana

    xml

    When the NYPD decides that it's going place heavy surveillance on a culture of black musicians, to say that an explanation is warranted is a ripe understatement. With the almighty dollar as a wonderful lubricant, retired NYPD detective Derrick Parker teams up with journalist Matt Diehl to shed apparency on what would otherwise be a riot inspiring case of racial profiling. Notorious C.O.P. (St. Martin's Press) is centered around the Miami Herald's discovery of a NYPD dossier which detailed the criminal activity of numerous rappers and their affiliates within the Hip-Hop industry.

    Notorious C.O.P. makes its readers petrifyingly aware that New York is a city which in some ways is still governed by crime. It is a city where many law offenders not only commit multiple crimes, but they also use the knowledge of their criminal surroundings as currency to lessen their own sentences. Derrick Parker gives shocking reflections of a city with a rotting skeleton of criminal behavior occurring at the most prestigious midtown bars and at the most humble Washington Heights villas alike.

    It is clear from the chapter "White Lines" that Hip-Hop crime has been a horrible mutant of the music's incestuous relationship with the drug world. In fact, for most of the rappers profiled in the book, crack was the initial investment that subsidized their career. Derrick Parker explains that laundering money into the rap industry is not uncommon, just like the whole druglord turned record executive phenomenon. Yet, Parker maintains that his book is not another work demonizing the rap community and also goes as far as to portray rappers themselves as victims of crime. Still, it is difficult to ignore that Hip-Hop has become violently siamesed with crime, leading to some of the most severe martyrdoms of our time, allegedly.

    Notorious C.O.P. is an intriguing book for the grown-up Hardy Boy type crowd who love holding the magnifying glass over both solved and unsolved cases. For Hip-Hop heads, it might be hard to swallow because Parker tends to disturb the sanctity of the dead. For one, he claims it was Biggie himself who ordered Tupac's 1994 shooting, and he also claims that Jam Master Jay was involved in a drug deal gone awry before his death. Notorious C.O.P. is a great story of what's really going on in the industry from a cop's viewpoint, but even the NYPD itself will tell you: examine the motive.

    ALLHIPHOP REVIEWS:THE ROOTS:Game Theory
    Monday. 9.4.06 7:31 pm
    Artist: The Roots
    Title: Game Theory
    Rating:
    Reviewed by: Jayson Rodriguez

    xml

    Something's got to give. Since 1999's Things Fall Apart, The Roots have tried to balance an extremely tight rope between underground supremacy and commercial viability. But the Philly collective has either veered too far to the left with their sound (the rock-ish hum of 2002's Phrenology) or played it safe with a small collection of songs (2004's The Tipping Point) hardly potent enough to match the capabilities of a band that's headlined Radio City Music Hall and Lincoln Center. With Game Theory (Def Jam), however, ?uestlove and Black Thought are synchronized; both musically and lyrically aligned with a darker timbre, resulting in the band's finest album since Things Fall Apart

    From the start, Thought continues to extol the virtues of his ever expanding voice and consciousness, which the characteristically reticent emcee first displayed on The Tipping Point. "I try to school these bucks, but they don't wanna listen/That's the reason the system making this paper from the prison," he rages over the frantic drum and keyboard pace of the Kool & The Gang and Ohio Players sampling lead single, "Don't Feel Right." The opening track, "False Media," finds Thought solemnly chastising the U.S.'s coverage of the War on Terror. Production wise, the album also soars with the sinister bass line and thumping drums on the haunting "In The Music" and the blissfully woozy stylings of "Long Time" featuring fellow Illadelphian Peedi Peedi.

    The few miscues, of which most are minor, come toward the back end of the album. "Here I Come" revisits the guitar-laden synths of Phrenology's rock-inspired selections with mixed results. Here, Thought's verse sound rushed and he's easily bested on the mic by returning members Malik B. and Dice Raw. Then there's the sluggish "New World," which sonically fails to match Thought's revelatory rhymes. It's only in these instances where the chemistry of the band succumbs to ?uestlove's adventurous musical endeavors.

    During a time of war and tragedy-most of the project was recorded in the wake of Hurricane Katrina-The Roots could have easily relied on their rabid neo-soul friendly fan base and Def Jam's marketing muscle to craft an album more digestible and fitting for an act on such a mainstream label. But instead, The Roots have masterfully come together thematically to capture and challenge the pulse of a nation, band, and their Hip-Hop peers. And that's not a game.

    Da Backwudz:Wood Work
    Monday. 9.4.06 8:21 pm
    Wood Work
    Rowdy Records/Major Way Entertainment

    1. Welcome 2 Da Backwudz
    Sho Nuff: We ain’t wanna do it like the normal intros, we just wanted to rap and welcome everyone to the experience that they about to have. Let everyone know about the Backwudz.

    2. You Gonna Luv Me
    FEATURING: Milwaukee Black
    Sho Nuff: We came out with it a while back. You gonna feel us with whatever we do musically, whatever we got going on, you gonna love us.

    3. I Don’t Like the Look of It (Oompa)
    FEATURING: Caz Clay
    Sho Nuff: Sometimes people don’t like the look of the stuff that we be doing, so we just had to speak on it. As far as the video, It was more of a collective idea with Dallas and Fat Cats. We all sat down and tried to come up with some crazy hot concepts (like) the kids doing the Oompa Loompas, similar to Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. We just came up with the idea and it came out hot.

    4. Getting 2 It
    FEATURING: Killer Mike
    Sho Nuff: We had to do a song for the streets. Where we from, them boys be getting into it. It’s one of them songs that is a feel good song that make you get into it no matter what you do.

    5. Makin’ Money Counting Hundreds
    Sho Nuff: Shout out one time to the Marley family. That's a Bob Marley song, and it's just one of them feel good songs like "Getting 2." It has the same kind of theme and we happy that we blessed.

    6. The World Could Be Yours
    Sho Nuff: When you in a relationship with somebody and you kicking it, and they feel that you ain’t putting in work or showing them love, you be like, ‘if you let me grind and do what I gotta do to work, then the world can be yours.’ It’s a hot song.

    7. Fantastic
    FEATURING: Bohagon and Jeff B
    Sho Nuff: That’s one of my favorite songs on the album. It’s a summer joint and you can drop the top or whatever you riding in. It’s a feel good song and anyone can be fantastic. It’s about feeling good and feeling fantastic about yourself.

    8. I’ll do
    FEATURING: Jasper
    Sho Nuff: That’s one of those late night songs. You telling the girl that you will do damn near anything you ask me to because I’m feeling you like that. Jasper is one of Dallas’s producers over at Rowdy, and it’s just one of those songs when your vibing with a chick and you telling them that you’ll do damn near anything, not everything you ask me, but damn near anything, and I’ll work that out for you baby because I’m feeling you like that. We was in the studio jammin’ and Jasper is a real good dude, so look out for him.

    9. Wood Grain (Interlude)

    10. Whatcha Know ‘Bout My Life
    FEATURING: Big Gipp
    Sho Nuff: We was just on a personal level. This song is featuring Big Gipp. It’s just letting you know who we are on a personal level. I got real personal on that song. You can’t judge a book by its cover. People always think when they look at you that they can just read you and know all about you. They be like you have never been through shit. You never know what someone done been through, and we was just speaking on that.

    11. Mama Always Told Me
    FEATURING: Sleepy Brown
    Big Marc: This like my favorite song, me and Sho Nuff are cousins and man, our fathers are brothers, but we were still raised in single parent homes with our mothers. My mom is like my backbone man. The beginning of the hook says, “Mama always told me where there’s angels there are demons,” my mama always guided me morally right, and we just had to speak on that. She always told me to stay in prayer and the blessings will come, not when you want them to, but when you least expect it. When you least expect them, it’s gonna be the perfect time. Also, Rico Wade produced that and Sleepy Brown is on that boy to-, me and Sleepy Brown singing on that thing. We actually recorded this song in the Dungeon, so that was an experience all in itself too- to record in the same studio and the same mic that Kast and Goodie done rapped on. That was a wonderful experience, for real.

    12. Feelin Lonely
    Sho Nuff: We talked about a lot of social issues. Marc’s verse, he is talking about a girl whose going through a lot. Her father was molesting her and eventually towards the end of the verse, she killed herself. We just touching on a lot of subjects that’s going on in the world that a lot of people tend to look over.

    13. Lock and Load
    Sho Nuff: Dallas did that one. When people hear the title, they probably think that we talking about guns. We actually talking about locking and loading with the word of God, man and being ready for anything that comes in front of you. You gotta shoot down that negativity with that humble ammunition.

    Big Marc: We was vibing so hard, and that’s another one of my favorite ones.

    14. Same Song
    Sho Nuff: Shouts out to all the DJ’s that supported us. We were addressing about how when you hear the radio, that you hear the same songs. A lot of underground artists are not getting air time and a lot of DJ’s are looking over them. We ain’t hating on none of the DJ’s, but when you hear it, that is what it’s pertaining to. Just try to show some versatility with the radio. Without the DJ’s and fans, the artists ain’t nothing.

    15. Smoke N Ride
    FEATURING: George Clinton
    Big Marc: We recorded that song in the studio with George. My mama and grandmamma grew up on George, that’s they generation. We was in there vibing and the song is just so funky. When you hear it, you gonna swear that we are at a PFunk concert. It was a wonderful experience.

    16. You Gonna Luv Me (Remix)
    FEATURING: Nas and Slim Thug
    Sho Nuff: That’s Nas and Slim Thugga. It was a blessing to have the opportunity to do that because a lot of people been requesting that since day one.

    DJ Drama & Lil Wayne
    Monday. 9.4.06 8:43 pm
    Dedication 2
    Review By: Leon Bailey

    Dedication 2The mixtape that was donned a classic before it was even released to the public. Lil Wayne is the hardest working artist in the south right now with a barrage of mixtapes released and unreleased tracks leaked. Many consider the first Dedication a classic, but to internet savvy users most of them heard the tracks from Lil Wayne’s Young Money web site. To satisfy those people Lil Wayne teamed up with DJ Drama once again to present to you Dedication 2 Gangsta Grillz. Dedication 2 is a 25-track mixtape of brand new tracks of lyrical coldness that not many can compete with.

    Beginning with a voice saying, “You’re watching a master at work”, “Get ‘Em” is a perfect way to begin the mixtape. DJ Drama shows off his DJ skills and hypes you up by bringing back Wayne’s lyrical assault “My Block pumpin' and I’m tryin 2 keep that O pumpin’/If niggas snitchin’ then I let dem niggas hold sumthin/” twice. Switching up his flow when the beat kicks in is genius. When listening to the track it seems like a preview to what is to come during the mixtape.

    There are some hilarious one-liners such as “Bitches on my stick, but my name ain’t Harry Potter” from “Workin’ Em” and "My pockets on Raven Simone...that's fat," which is on “What U Know.” Wayne is not one of those artists that force punch lines on you. He always gives consistent freestyles. “Spitter” is a track that Wayne completely bodies with fierce bars like “That's blood all over your Rover/blood all over your chauffer/blood all over your loafers/if I get any closer...There's blood all over my toaster/blood all over my holster/I'm in them S Dots, that's blood all over my Hovas/.” Hearing Wayne spit like that is a treat to the listeners and there is a lot more to hear.

    The mixtape turns it down a notch midway when Wayne’s Young Money artists Currency & Mac Maine are showcased. “Poppin’ Them Bottles” and “Ridin Wit The AK” both Young Money artists verses are lackluster with dreary flows and are outshined by the beats. They do not impress at all, but them being on the mix serves its purpose. Wayne was very average on Rick Ross' “Hustlin.” Not to say it was not a good cover, but compared to everything else on the mixtape it could have been better.

    As said, the mixtape did turn it down a notch, but it did pick back up. On “No Other”, he and Juelz Santana collaborate again over Jay-Z's "Dynasty Intro." The two definitely hold a good chemistry together and more music collectively is something to look forward to. “Georgia….Bush” is an enormous surprise to the conclusion of the mixtape. Wayne addresses President George Bush regarding Hurricane Katrina. In interviews, it seemed as Wayne was not critical or showed any sympathy for Hurricane Katrina, but he let it all out on this one. You have to respect the man as an artist for this track and all that you can say when you are finished listening is that he saved the best for last.

    Dedication 2 a classic mixtape? You be the judge. With heat all throughout the mixtape, quotables for days, flows that switch up right through every single track, then how can you argue? DJ Drama continues a run of mixtapes that the south has never seen before and Lil Wayne continues to improve every time that you hear him. When it has been all said and done maybe, he will be “The Best Rapper Alive.”
