Progressive hip-hop compilation at its finest. November 29, 2006

Stones Throw records, owned by indy-legend Peanut Butter Wolf, has been known to bring the most abstract, and experiemental hip-hop to the market. All of the emcees on the label have a delightfully perverse sense of humor, and the thirst for creative rhymes, and beats. Whether you were introduced to Stones Throw through Quasimoto's The Unseen, Madvillainy's Madvillain, Jaylib's Champion Sound, or any of their other masterful release, you can't deny just how dope, and diverse their roster is.
With cuts from the label's multi-faceted emcees and producers, you'll find self-produced Oh No, Koushik, J Dilla, J. Rocc, and other tracks on this album; you'll even find tracks from Stones Throw's most renowned endeavors, such as Madvillain(Monkey Suite), Jaylib(Take It Back, No $ No Toke), and Quasimoto(Raw Heat, also featuring underrated emcee Percee P). However, this isn't strictly a hip-hop compilation; tracks from Stones Throw crooners such as Gary Wilson, Georgia Anne Muldrow, and Pure Essence are also dope tracks, that while not hip-hop, any fan of Stones Throw records, or good music for that matter, should enjoy.
This compilation shows exactly why Stones Throw records is as popular with college students who listen to indy-rock, as it is with hip-hop heads; they produce captivating, and thought-provoking music, that'll get your feet tapping just as much as it'll exercise your mind. It's the perfect soundtrack on a rainy day, when you just want to chill out, and possibly reflect upon your life. Layered with multiple dimensions musically, and pounding with profound lyrics, this deserves a place in anyone's music collection.

Adult swim and stone throw keep it blunted and keep it comin'. Nothin but pure beats and rhymes out of this collection of essential hits. Sounds like more then a soundtrack or anything like that. If you like Stone throw or just good lyrical and good beats to complement them then this is a diamond in the ruff, because it's beyond the average.
Awesome... October 4, 2006

No, really. Are you kidding me? This CD got mostly 5 stars? Pinch me, someone, I must be dreaming! I like Adult Swim, but I heard this CD and most of the tracks on this CD are simply atrocious! Is this what music is coming to? Man, my father was right when he said they don't make good music no more! Blah. If this is what "experimental music" sounds like then I want NO parts of it! Ugh!
Note:
Okay, granted MOST of the tracks 1-14 suck-I just listened to all of them-the last time I listened to this CD at all was when I heard those tracks through someone else, but I didn't get to hear the ones at the end of this CD. I just clicked on the samples just now. Except for the very last one, some of the tracks (15-18) sounded BETTER than the rest. They don't even belong on this complilation...in my opinion.
