4.0 out of 5 stars Big Bang for your Buck, July 9, 2001
This review is from: Big Bang Boogie (Audio CD)
Solid debut from Akbar. Live and direct from the Ill Boogie camp, Akbar's Big Bang Boogie provides a well rounded catalog of dope Hip-Hop. There aren't many faults to point out with this one. Akbar's rhyme flow is confident and clever while the supporting soundscape offers some pleasing cuts to hook your ears on. For instance M-Boogie, the labels resident beat provider, pastes together a bouncy, guitar looped delight with "No Suckas Allowed". Akbar ups the value of the track two-fold with his slick mic control and verbal cadence. It's hot, along with the other first 4 cuts. M-Boogie's "Hot ya Hot" remix is one of the stronger cuts on the LP, but I'm split between the more stripped down vibe of the original version that's included towards the end of the album. Although Akbar tends to get a little preachy and wordy (check "Akbar Speaks") when he rants uncontrollably about proper eating habits, breathing, body cells and so on, it's only a minor distraction from an otherwise impressive solo debut.

4.0 out of 5 stars Akbar rules the M-I-C, January 23, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Big Bang Boogie (Audio CD)
Words cannot discribe how I feel about this kid Akbar. Dope comes imediatly to mind. I think M-Boogie's production is a little on the Premier imitation - Akbar, use other Djs just because this cat is the label owner doesnt mean you have to let him ruin the beatz hire the executioners or Peanut Butter Wolf for god's sake!

Anyway, props to Akbar and props to Matt Terio aka M-Boogie (just stop djing and just sign more dope ass talent, ight?)

5.0 out of 5 stars Real Emcee, June 6, 2008
This review is from: Big Bang Boogie (Audio CD)
Akbar is an emcee with the voice, rhymes, and swagger of a true mc. Been a fan since his early 90s group Mental Giants in Chicago. Dope beats and lyrics. This is HIP-HOP. For fans of Rakim.
