5.0 out of 5 stars Tight album!, April 11, 2002

I'd been listening to the same 4 song GCH had put out for months and was eagerly awaiting this release. This album floored me. Production quality is awsome, has some of the tightest most throught provoking lyrics I've heard in a long time, and the beats are top-notch. GCH is going to be big one day. Hiphop has a new savior..or perhaps I should say heroe.

4.0 out of 5 stars Be warned - G-C-H is not your average Hip-Hop group!, May 20, 2003

This review is from: For The Kids (Audio CD)

Unlike most groups, these cats are unconcerned with sexual conquests, drugs and guns, they are REAL, LIVE, SOCIALLY CONSCIOUS Heads. It is clear from the music that these guys have been influenced by more than just Hip-Hop, and use REAL instruments to create laid-back, funky, mellow basslines, over which dope rhymes are kicked to create their own []variant of the genre. The lyrical skill exhibited on this album may not be ABSOLUTELY superb, but the flow far surpasses even most older and experienced mainstream rappers. The album certainly has a 'high school' feel, which is not surprising since this album was actually written when most of the members where still at school. 'For The Kids' is exactly what it says on the tin - music for teens everywhere, documenting real experiences that people of every ethnicity and class go through. If you're looking for hard hitting rap with plenty of cursing then this ain't for you...Real music fans looking for a new outlook on Hip-Hop ought to click 'Add To Cart' right away...
