Album de la semaine: Rugged Intellect - Renaissance Music (The Introduction) ("Un des releases les plus importants du hip hop anglais de montreal ever", comme dirait Diction)

Diction's review...

Lyrics: 4.0
Beats: 3.0


Poor Rugged Intellect, his album gets ripped the same day as Common and absolutely no one pays attention. Pretty much all the hip hop heads from Montreal have heard of Rugged Intellect, he's opened for alot of hip hop shows lately. What stands out the most with RI is his way of rapping, a fast delivery influenced by the likes of Kool G Rap, Nas & Big Pun. He can really rap his ass off with awesome technique. Normally hip hop albums from Montreal MC's don't have american featurings, but he reached out to many legends for this one. He's really put alot of effort for this debut album and it shows that he means business. My only problem with the album is the production which is not very innovative, just generic NY beats that have been made alot before. Some of them are tight, but a few could have been doper. While Rugged Intellect can rap very well, he's not very great for making hooks and many of the songs sound similar. There's definitely more than a few dope songs but overall the album is a little long. It's a decent album but it's not really up to his potential, I'm hoping for better production the next time around (if there is one...).
