Music reviews of FELT 3: A Tribute to Rosie Perez
Music Review: FELT 3: A Tribute to Retaining Artistic Credibility
Rating: 4 Stars
Murs (of Living Legends) and Slug (of Atmosphere, Rhymesayers) create another album full of B-list actress love and banging beats. For those of you expecting the smooth, flawless sampling Ant brought to Felt 2, you might go put that disc in an continue listening to it. If you're okay with creativity and artistic freedom, pick this up. Aesop Rock (Def Jux) created the sonic backdrop Slug and Murs find themselves traversing and is no disappointment.
One of the gripes against this album is the "personalities" of the artists clashing because of the style of production Aesop provides and how the emcees' styles are perceived against that production. However, it seems that both emcees are still on their respective game and Aesop's interesting, engaging beats provide a good playground for two artists willing to experiment, try new styles, and ride the beats in any way they can. Murs is at his swagger-best here, constantly reminding us why we loved him in the first place. Slug is no less himself: self-depreciating, quick-witted, and keen on giving quotable lines for the kiddies to put on their Facebook pages, despite a more serious demeanor and posturing.
To expect full albums of amazing material from a group that doesn't work together all of the time is ridiculous. However, Felt has consistently come closest to allowing listeners these kind of ever-elusive albums, though each has stronger and less-interesting tracks. Ultimately, songs like "Protagonists," "Ghost Dance Deluxe," and "Give It Up" are the strength of this newest installment from the A-list, B-list worshipers. Despite the less-than-stellar reviews, generally centered on Aesop's production, this album stands out as a move away from the easy rhymes and uncomplicated narratives Felt as approached in the past, pushing the emcees to try new styles, new schemes, and explore fascinating new material that might not have come had they fallen back on a Living Legends or Atmosphere affiliate for the beats. Instead, Ace Rock brings darkness to Felt's world and balance back to the equation, leveling the playing field after an album (Felt 2: A Tribute to Lisa Bonet) that concentrated more on the fun, amusing side of these emcees.
Description of FELT 3: A Tribute to Rosie Perez
B-List actresses be warned and flattered because FELT is back! Slug (Atmosphere) and Murs (Living Legends) reunite for their third release from moniker FELT. These MCs teamed up with The Grouch (Living Legends) in 2002 to release FELT's debut album A Tribute to Christina Ricci. Collaborating with producer Ant (Atmosphere) in 2005 resulted in their second coming A Tribute to Lisa Bonet. With the fresh addition of Aesop Rock (Def Jux) on production and unwavering love for those forgotten actresses who warmed their hearts, Slug and Murs are pleased to present FELT 3: A Tribute to Rosie Perez.Pop CDs
