Why BITE?, 12 Jan 2005

Having followed T-Bone's career from Redeemed Hoodlum to GospelAlphaMegaFunkyBoogieDiscoMusic...I have to give him his propers for tight production and flows for the most part. However, what really weighs on this release, and on his first releases, is his tendency to mimic, rather outright BITE concepts and lyrics from secular hip hop artists. For instance, on Redeemed Hoodlum and Hoodlum's Testimony he's doin' Cypress Hill, on Hoodlum's prayer he's doin' a lil 2Pac & Method Man, on Last Street Preacha he's doin' his own thang, but on GAMFBDMusic, he's bitin' Snoop from start to finish. Now I love my brother-in-Christ all the way, and I acknowledge the fact that he's one of holy hip hop's pioneers and one of it's hottest lyricists...however, it's because he's so unique and so skilled that I have to come down on him a lil for goin' Christian Snoop on e'rybody. Another sure shot for the speakers, and funky out this world, but his most original works to date are on The Last Street Preacha and even on the one joint he did for the Hero:The Rock Opera soundtrack(Raised In Harlem). To Bonie Bone: Let God Use You & BE YOU!

T-Bone's back, this time with something a little more funky than before. A very consistent record, seeing as he works with his production partner "Chase" for most of the record. Unfortunately, alot of the record is far too monotonous to be fully appreciated. His decision to perform his own BGV's for most of the record really hurts him, esp on "Can't See Us", "Still Preachin'", "Rhyme Skillz" and worst case on "Our History". Though a few West Coast classics are delivered - "Dippin", "Pop ya collar" and "Welcome to California". His decision to work with KRS-1 on the title cut is no doubt the low point on the record. The cut "Our History" gives props to christian rap's elders (Steven Wiley, SFC, PID, JC crew, D-Boy, IDOL King etc). Wish he included ETW, Transformation Crusade, Washington, Tru $ U, JC & The Boyz etc, still, a decent track. Overall: DISSAPOINTING FOR A TRUE VET LIKE THE BONEY BONE.
