A reaction from the fusion of Beat Junkies + NW Lyricists, October 26, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Conception Present Walkman Rotation (Audio CD)
When you combine the talent of NW lyricists, beat jugglin', and a tight production the outcome in this case was fluid. Artists featured on this release are as follows: J-Rocc, Eclipse, Arcee, Jake One, Mr. Supreme, Kutfather, Fourfifiths, DJ Ace, Samson & Swift, Carl Johnson, Third Degree, & Diamond Mercenaries. J-Rocc sets off the rotation with an intro that could make a man with no rhythm feel it, with "Somethin' Funky For Your Walkman". Pay attention to the beat jugglin', mixin', and blendin' when you've got a Beat Junkie @ the wheels. J-Rocc is your host for your ride 'round the turntalbes with some of Conceptions finest. The first lyricist featured on this compilation is Ohio's MC Eclipse. He puts down two tracks, "World Premier" which features the mic veteran Arcee and "My Position" a track which clearly states where he stands. Seattle's own Samson & Swift show how they do it in the cut "Watch Your Words", a straight forward message for those of you who want in on this industry. Mr Supreme lays it down on the joint "Any Last Words" this track features 3D of the Diamond Mercenaries. A versatile artist is every labels dream, Jake One just might be that one for Conception. He showcases live lyrics in "Essay On Pseudo-ism" which also features Arcee.

a rare (?) treat from the funky president, January 18, 2007
This review is from: Conception Present Walkman Rotation (Audio CD)
never thought I'd find any results when i asked the amazon-robots to find me a j-rocc cd, but boyee was I pleasantly surprised. This is a slice of some quality North Pacific Coast homespun hip-hop that is blended by one of the best DJs around. Being a Cali kid, I didn't know what to expect from our neighbors to el norte, but after listening to Walkman Rotation I now know they bring the real. An excellent mix for people wanting to break the mold of commercial (aka garbage) hiphop and see what else real heads have to offer.

OH MY GOD!!!!, October 11, 1999

This review is from: Conception Present Walkman Rotation (Audio CD)
If the intro to Soundbombing2 got you hyped, if you felt "Definition" off the Mos Def/Talib Kweli Joint, if you respect true turntable skillz, then THIS IS FOR YOU!!!. Trust me, YOU CAN'T GO WRONG WITH ANYTHING FROM THE BEAT JUNKIES IF YOU LIKE HIP HOP!!!!!
