Music reviews of Spirit in Stone
Music Review: Criminally Slept-On - 4 Stars
Rating: 4 Stars
Upon popping "Spirit In Stone" into my system, I was immediately taken back: Hard, snappy funk with boisterous rhyme schemes and a prevailing conscious theme. I shouldn't have been surprised. After all, this is what fans have come to expect of Quannum Projects. But even as a devout fan of Blackalicoius and Latyrx, I never really bothered to check out that "other" group on the label, the rookie emcees-slash-producers from Portland, Oregon, known as the Lifesavas. Sure they dropped a dope single way back in 2001 ("Head Exercise" b/w "Clutch Moments"), but could they actually hold down an entire album? The answer is a resounding yes. The trio of Vursatyl, Jumbo the Garbageman, and Rev. SHINES bring a rock solid package of insight ("What If It's True?" "Me"), spirituality ("Livin' Time"), dance grooves ("Fever," "Fa' Show"), and battle riffs ("Selector" "Emerge") with lyrics that make you think ("the White Man didn't pull the trigger, and take it too far/And the White Man ain't going to jail, niqqa YOU are") as well as laugh ("Have ultra-sound doctors bug your fetus, believe it.") Equally satisfying is the revolutionary overtones of the three-song set "State of the World/Apocalypse-War/Resist," where Vursatyl castigates the American government ("the CIA trained the crash pilots"), and calls on listeners to fight the status quo ("Resist! Are you an actor or an activist?") As emcees, Vursatyl and Jumbo both lack the charisma that would warrant a 5-Star rating, however, there's little else to criticize about this album. Stop sleepin' on Quannum's newfound talent and cop "Spirit In Stone" today.
