Diction's Review
I have been a fan of Cunninlynguists since 2003 when I discovered with their 2nd album Southernunderground. They offered a humoristic hip hop with great production, which was diferent from the usualy southern hip hop that I was used too. Well they had more serious songs too but the album was pretty fun. The album was one of my favorite of that year and was a strong reason why underground hip hop was so strong in that year (Little Brother, Brother Ali, Louis Logic and many others helped alot too). I also went back and checked out their debut and to my surprise the production was quite diferent on that one. It was also excellent and it showed me how Kno could switch his style up. Then came the 3rd album in 2005 "A Piece of Strange" which showed much growth and maturity. Gone was the humor, every track was very serious now. Kno's production style switched up once again, going into a very smooth dark style. The album had such cohesiveness, it was very focused and excellent all the way trought. Poor promotion from the record label didn't help the record to reach the masses but it gained a strong following in underground circles becoming their most popular album. Now in 2007 they are back once again with another album that's diferent from the others. It builds on the dark smooth sound of "A Piece of Strange" and it takes it even further. The MC's are totally focused, both Deacon and Natti get equal rapping time now and even Kno drops a few rhymes. Don't expect anything that will make you laugh, they have become a conscious semi-political hip hop group now. The rapping is on a very high level, it's one of the things that keeps me going back to the album. The production from Kno is totally innovative, unique and outstanding. Every single is crafted perfectly and this album might finally rank Kno in the top hip hop producers rigth now. Their career was already impressive with 3 great albums under their belt, but I believe this one is the best one of them all. A group that never stops improving, this is a pretty close of being a masterpiece. Who said 2007 couldn't have any classic hip hop albums?
