Product Description

CD Description

Alternative rapper Jel critiques both U.S. society and its critics on this intriguing, electronica-laced set. The vintage synthesizer sounds and extended instrumental breaks on tracks like the Eastern-sounding "All Day Breakfast" and the hard-edged "Sweet Cream in It" frame Jel and fellow rappers Wise Intelligent and Steffi Bohm's cool appraisals of contemporary American social and political mores, conveying complexideas in a club-friendly way. Jel's takes on the American auto industry in "To Buy a Car", and the Iraq war in "WMD", are both well-observed and courageously independent-minded.

4.0 out of 5 stars A damn good Debut, 5 Mar 2006
By Je Nash "thomasnash2" (Cambridge) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If there was one anticon release I've been anticipating, it's this one. It's been a long time to wait for Jel to finally do something entirely on his lonesome. And yes it is very very good.

The beats are good, and lack the obscurity of other anticon artists, remaining interesting but danceable, and they layer under and over samples perfectly, so that every song on this LP is perfectly put together and a solid piece of production. Furthermore, quite often a real sense of playfulness comes across, particularly with tracks like Chipmunk Technique and Thrashin, where his playing with the decks is superb and clever.

The only criticism I would level at this album is a lack of cohesion. It seems like he had too many ideas to stick to just one (and in the hit and miss world of underground and abstract hip hop, I can't blame him for it). The first song, a cracking anti-SUV hip hop number, assagues into all day breakfast, a slow and ambient piece, which winds it's way into No Solution, a crackling and dark slow piece. All three are good, but don't necesserily fit well together. The more traditional hip hop tracks sound out of place and the Trip Hoppy All Around really sticks out like a sore thumb.

It's not enough to ruin the album, of course, it just means that I find I have to listen to individual tracks rather than listen to it all at once. Overall, whether he is creating a gelatinous soundscape with syrupy beats or a fast paced danceable piece of scratch hip hop, he's making something special
