Music Review: Digable Planets-Reachin (A New Refutation of Time and Space)
Rating: 5 Stars
I could not fall asleep tonight without first writing this review.See, there I was just listening to this album for about the billionth time when I decided that this album is indeed my favorite hip hop album and I mean of all time;this album is my all time favorite album out of every single hip hop album i've heard and I mean I had the tribe to contend with but hands down this is the best hip hop album I have ever heard in my life.It is as beautiful as the Mona Lisa,this is my favorite Hip Hop album of all time,Ever!Ever!Ever!Even though it has nothing to do with this album but a side note I also came to the conclusion that my all time favorite Rock and Roll album is: Led Zeppelin-How The West Was Won.My favorite Experimental album:The Soft Machine-BBC Sessions.My favorite book:On The Road-Jack Kerouac.My favorite writer and poet:Jack Kerouac.Color:Green.Favorite Jazz Album:John Coltrane-A Love Supreme.Favorite Movie:The Kid (Charlie Chaplin's)
Favorite Actor:Charlie Chaplin

Description of Reachin' (A New Refutation of Time and Space)
Digable Planets deliberately disavowed the toughness of hip-hop culture: the trio's leader called himself Butterfly, his foil Ladybug purred like Eartha Kitt, and they produced hooks out of lines like "We're just babies, man." Despite occasional flashes of sorrow (like the pro-choice recitation "La Femme F?tal"), the group's happy and laidback on this debut, with tracks made out of old jazz records and finger-snaps, and words that draw on 50s hipster slang. Reachin' spawned the Grammy-winning single "Rebirth Of Slick (Cool Like Dat)," and after this album, their joyous Blue Note-and-black-lights bounce lost some of its novelty. --Douglas WolkGeneral CDs
