Music reviews of The Big Doe Rehab
Music Review: Ehhhh...
Rating: 3 Stars
Far from Ghostface's golden era, I love the Wu but this record is kind of slow & boring. Ghost kills it as usual, lyrically but the beats are pretty average. It's a shame since you know they can do better. There is not one RZA beat! This can barely even be considered a Wu-Tang release. Just like alot of their 2003 releases & up. Although Meth did give me that Wu-vibe in 4:21 & Raekwon's Only Built 2 is a modern day classic, the Wu-Tang is pretty much at the end of it's reign.
There is some originality on here though but nothing we haven't really heard before except for The Toney Awards. I love this song, it really stands out, there is also Slow Down with Chrisette Michelle which has a very pop feeling but very Hip-Hop & is nice to hear. Also the biggest bangers on here would have to be: "We Celebrate" which in my opinion is a classic, "The Barrel Brothers' goes hard & Yapp City is that classic gutter Wu-Tang joint.
While this cd does have it's gems, it is a very mediocre release, I have tried countless times to listen to it but it just doesn't do it for me & so this album gets the boot. As I mentioned before, lyrically it is on point, the beats would be the weakest link but why endure an average Ghostface album when you could listen to "Supreme" or "Ironman" or even "Fishscale"? In which he goes ten times harder?
Yes I agree that this is some of the best Hip-Hop of it's time but that really isn't saying much, you just need to know where to look. Besides, if I really can't find good Hip-Hop in the stores, then I'll just pop in my classic joints.
I recommend this to a hardcore die hard Wu-Tang Clan fan.
Description of The Big Doe Rehab
One of The Wu-Tang Clan's most recognizable personalities has returned with his 7th solo album. Ghostface has maintained visibility in the marketplace by touring the country on his own headlining tour, the Wu-Tang Reunion Tour, and many music festivals. He continues that visibility with the Adult Swim College Tour (October) and The Hip Hop Live Tour featuring Rakim (November). Though touring, Ghostface has made time to give his fans another dose of the raw lyricism that he is known for. This December, The Big Doe Rehab is sure to have fans satisfied with their next fix of Ghostface.If it's an appetite for pure hip-hop ingenuity with a side of freaky flair you've got, you can't do much better than the Wu-Tang Clan's individual players. Ghostface Killah's 2006 mini-masterpiece, Fishscale, elevated the faceless Clan man to the ranks of the world's greatest MCs by way of hot beats and his supremacy in integrating '70s soul into his sound. The Big Doe Rehab is his bid to hang on to his A-list achievement. Which it does, and handily: If lead single "We Celebrate!" seems pedestrian (Rare Earth's "I Just Want To Celebrate" can't be all that far back in the soul-keepers' vault), hang on till you get to "Walk Around," which reaches in further and pulls up a proper Little Milton track. Or forget about samples altogether and let Mr. Coles win you over by way of his proficiency with hooks ("Killa Lipstick") or skits (the name-checking "White Linen Affair"). Where one bag of tricks runs out, this disc's star and its producers--including the supremely skilled Anthony Acid, who steals the show here--pop up with something else to keep you feeling the Fishscale-caliber momentum. Haters will say this hot streak can't last, but the man won't be handcuffed; Killah can't be stopped. --Tammy La Gorce
