This is arguably the first hip hop album on the List. Now, I know this might shock a few of my readers, but I really don't have that much experience with hip hop. And by that I mean I don't think I could have named a single hip hop artist. Until now...dah dah DAHHHHH.
Apparently, I had no idea what I was missing. I loved this album. I didn't even mind the preachiness of the song "You Are,"; in fact, I was kind of into it. I also adored the tribute to Stevie Wonder. I wonder what he thought about it...
I felt revitalized after this album. I imagine it's the same feeling people have after going to church. Definitely recommended. The album, not the church part.
Next up: Elvis Costello!! Praise Zeus!
RATING: 5/5
Fun beat!
