Music reviews of The Long March EP

Music Review: An EP that will go down in music history!
Rating: 5 Stars

This is a truly amazing album. I had the Blue Scholars first album, and loved it, but didn't get this until it had been out for about a year. Since that time, I have listened to it almost repeatedly. Every track on this album is on my iTunes "Top 10 Most Played".

Why is it so good?

First of all: the amazingly deep, interesting, and socially-conscious lyrics. Geometric has something important to say. These aren't just ego-building lyrics about who the best MC is (though that's certainly implied) but speak very powerfully to issues surrounding the occupation in Iraq, the importance of dissent, colonialism, mis-education and underfunded schools, working for the man, addiction, immigration, and feminism. All extremely important issues generally left out of mainstream hip-hop, but skillfully and beautifully tackled by this brilliant lyricist.

Secondly, the incredibly amazing production. In response to Geologic's brilliant lyrics, Sabzi - a classically-trained musician - composes some of the most creative beats and music, and they mesh perfectly with the tone of the album. "Cornerstone", "Talk Story" and "Sagaba Remix" are three tracks where this can most clearly be heard. These two artists' skills blend so perfectly together you'd think they'd known each other since birth.

The Blue Scholars' two full-length albums were both instant classics in their own right, but this one especially has a very special place in my heart. Very few albums that I've listened to have moved me so much as this one has. It deserves a place in every hip-hop head's collection, as well as anyone interested in hearing a major turning point in Seattle's music scene. In my opinion, these two artists deserve just as much credit for shaping Seattle's signature sound as do Curt Cobain or Jimi Hendrix. Very few people that I've talked to lately have disputed that they are the best group of musicians currently in Seattle - and the fact that they can't play a venue without packing it out is proof of this. They deserve all the success they get!
