5.0 out of 5 stars Dark Humor..R.I.P. Anthony Berkeley A.k.a Grym Reap, May 7, 2004

1994....Dark Humor

The Early 90's were a really hard time to be a teenager,
Everybody was trying to be hard. Gangs were hip.
The first world trade bombing. School violence.

I was in 11th Grade, And The Gravediggaz spoke to me.
The frustration I felt in life. They spoke of how silly
suicide can be, and talk about nightmares and hallucinations.
Things that many a people go through, but rarely heard about in music.

Flawed,Yes They were all flawed individuals, But that was there

beauty.They spoke from there heart.Yes it is dark and bleak,
but those are very true human emotions. Grym reap was a homeless man before music gave him
another chance..

Many rappers today speak of popping shots and toting glocks.
with no mention of why they are angry and why they are mad.
the Gravedgiggaz didn't treat the listner like an 8 year old
they made great use of the English language.

Poetry.........This is an album i will play for the rest of my life, It speaks of the suffering and haunted mind that horrific events can give some of us.

5.0 out of 5 stars WHAT THE (****)! WHY ISN'T THIS A TOP 10 CLASSIC?!, June 28, 2006

This review is from: 6 Feet Deep (Audio CD)

About three nights ago I listened to this whole album from the intro to the finale after picking it up at Tower Records, and I have only one word to say about it... DAMN! This impressed me from the first five seconds of "Constant Elavation" to the closing few seconds of the last song. That is the track("Constant Elavation") after the eerie intro that starts off the album with a boom, at only 2:30 it can't be considered a full filled banger, but more of a starter track. The next track is a crowd favorite in "Nowhere To Run, Nowhere To Hide". That song has great energy as well as does the rest of the album, and something special(along with an amazing beat), that makes this a hit. As I said, one HUGE thing about this album is the crazy energy that it brings more than any other album I have ever heard. It has amazing production and lyrics that can touch anyone. I actually heard of this when I was searching for more classic albums in listamanias of classic Rap albums. This appeared quite a few times, and when I saw it at Tower I said, "Well, I might not see it again, so I'll check it out..." THE ONE THING THAT REAAALLY CAME OUT HUGE AS A FACTOR IN THIS ALBUM WAS HOW REAL AND DOWN TO EARTH IT WAS. THIS WAS RELEASED IN THE 90'S WHILE SOME HARD TIMES WERE GOING DOWN. THIS ALBUM HELPS ALL THE PROBLEMS TEENAGERS HAVE, AND CAN ACTUALLY TEACH. But anyway, the next track is the longest one, and an amazing hook makes this one of the best songs. The next full song is "Blood Brothers", and this is also amazing track, talking about how love for brothers comes first... Always. Great hook. Ahh, the next full song is track eight and it is named "1-800-Suicide" but i'm sure you all know this one. This was the biggest hit on the album and has a great cameo by KRS-1. This song was the favorite track in the other reviews, and I can't say i'm any different. This is a great song that talks all about the problems and stupidity of suicide. However... We knew it was too good to be true, i'm not going to be a huge fan who says this album is perfect, well it's not. After the super track the album goes nothing but downhill and almost point less from there. It is still great music but nothing compared to the earlier tracks. It is as if the albums builds up to "1-800-Suicide", and then drops down again. Another thing I do not like about this album is that it really irritates me when they are trying to make a serious point on a track, and then one of them says an abnoxious phrase or they play a laughing noise. That really confuses and annoys me. But anyway, simply amazing album and classic up there right behind "Straight Outta Compton", "The Chronic", "Illmatic", like at a possible top twenty-five ranking.
Extremely highly recommended for any person who collects classic Rap albums. You will fall in love with this if you also love: Blackstar, early Mobb Deep, 2Pac, Nas, and really any hardcore early 90's Rap.

5.0 out of 5 stars Suicide It's A Suicide, Ashes To Ashes, Dust To Dust, May 30, 2006

This review is from: 6 Feet Deep (Audio CD)

This album is a classic, very very dark production in this album,this album has very dark humor but its mad funny,this album is known for the singles 1-800 Suicide(they had mad remixes to that song),Nowhere to Run, Diary Of A Madman (this was Killah Priest's first appearance not B.I.B.L.E.) and i think thats it.my favorite tracks are Defective Trip (Trippin'),2 Cups Of Blood, Blood Brothers (my favorite track on the album,plus the beat is hot),Diary Of A Madman (another one of my favorites hot ass beat,plus the video for this song is bananas),Mommy, What's A Gravedigga?,Bang Your Head,Here Come The Gravediggaz, and Graveyard Chamber, this album here is a classic, this came out in 1994,when horrorcore was big and there was a dispute with Gravediggaz Vs Flatlinerz that they were the originators of Horrorcore but in fact the original originator of horrorcore is none other than Esham, but he doesn't call it horrorcore he calls it acid rap.This album is recommended for people who like dark production and dark humor,horrorcore,wu tang, hopefully this review was helpful, p.s this album was originally named N*ggamortis but had to be named 6 Feet Deep becasue it's self explanatory, plus in N*ggamortis there was a hot hot song called Pass The Shovel, but when they renamed it to 6 feet deep it didn't make the album don't know why but oh well, hopefully once again found this review helpful. peace.
