Right About Now - Running Commentary

Crisis said: "[QUOTE=Jaybsty]Well that was my first impression, I'd proly give it a 4 now after listening to it again. The songs w/ MF Doom & Jean Grae are definitely the best though. Kweli's tribute to Lauren Hill is awesome though, can't get that song outta my head. I still recommend you get the album if you're a kweli fan... :D[/QUOTE] those is ill and so is the joint with Papoose....i been tellin ya'll for a while that nigga is the truth...he might of outshined Talib on that joint"

Jaybsty said: "Due to popular demand HHW's John Madden (Me...lol) is back w/ a fly by review of Talib Kweli's new album - Right About Now... Alredy listened to Right About now it was the first track & is tight... track 2 I needa listen to better because it was deep shit... Track 3 Who got it is a bit different for Kweli, catchy hook reminds me more of Reflection Eternal days, nice beat on this one too..."

Jaybsty said: "Track 4 damn, tight start to it, the hook is aight....Kweli going hard...lol Damn whose this dude on this one, never heard him, but he's tight???....ahhh it's MF Doom - tight!!! Yeah this shit is tight, nice trumpets & shit in the background as well...fade out w/ some nice scratching....."

Jaybsty said: "Dammmmmmnnnnn, Miss Hill tribute to Lauren Hill, this shit is DOPE!!! Nice hook, kinda slower more eerie beat, good story, kinda reminds me of the one NAS did for Rakim!!! That bridge is tight!!! Nice flow..."

Jaybsty said: "Hmm this next one sounds different, Flash Gordon, interesting beat, kinda video gamey, like something outta Sonic The Hedgehog!!! OK it's not that bad, maybe...lol Nyaaah this shit's aight, uh-oh, reaching for the skip button, yes it's official, not a good first impression!!!"

Jaybsty said: "Supreme, Supreme, w/ Mos Def, this shit's gotta be tight, hmmmm the beats aight, not great, not bad, yeah this shit's tight, the beats only aight though....Mos def goin hard!!! Mmmmm the hooks pretty old school it aight. They've done better together before!!!"

Jaybsty said: "Whoaaa whose this Papoose guy, damn he's pretty tight, might have to check his shit out. Yeah - the beast, this shit's tight!!!"

Jaybsty said: "Roll Off Me - nice piano's to start it off!!! Hmm deep shit, catchy hook...yep, this shit's very deep!!! I like it tight song..."

Jaybsty said: "Sorry y'all Madden had to take a drinks break!!!"

Jaybsty said: "Aight Where You Gonna Run, first impression says to me this is proly the best track on the album, either this or the one w/ MF Doom. Jean Grae is very nice as always, Kweli's on point, nice beat, very smooth flow."

Jaybsty said: "And the last song called two & two was nice as well, kinda remind me of Won't You Stay off Quality. I guess because Kweli flows pretty smoothly & it's a bit of a softer sort of songs. (The sorta thing you'd play for your missus...lol)"

Jaybsty said: "REVIEW OVER - First impression, overall I'd give the album about a 3.5 OUT OF 5. Decent album, some songs a bit mediocre, some songs fiya, Kweli fans should pick it up. Not really the sorta album that had me in awe, in any sorta way & from first impressions I'd proly say all of his other albums are better than this... :mad:"

Jaybsty said: "[QUOTE=Crisis]those is ill and so is the joint with Papoose....i been tellin ya'll for a while that nigga is the truth...he might of outshined Talib on that joint[/QUOTE] yeah I was impressed w/ that song w/ Papoose, I might just have to check some of his shit out. Has he been around for a while??? Sounds like one of the dudes on the last song off Blackstar...only he's improved heaps."

Jaybsty said: "[QUOTE=TheTruth]papoose has been in the game for a while he will be one any of dj kay slay mixtapes dude is pretty nice check out his alphabetical slaughter ill post some mix tapes of his when i get a chance[/QUOTE] ^^^ Now that's the shit, props to The Truth."
