4.0 out of 5 stars Blaq Poet + DJ Premier = Raw Hip Hop, July 5, 2009

By	B. Mcgilligan "Walnuts" (Milwaukee/DC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Those of you who are fans of DJ Premier and/or Blaq Poet will not be disappointed when purchasing "The Blaqprint". Although many of the tracks here were released on mixtapes and previous LP's ("Hood Crazy", "Voices", "S.O.S.", etc) this is the first time they have been released in CD quality format. "Voices" in particular is a track I heard a couple years back, but it is extremely hard to find and I am glad Blaq Po decided to include it on the LP. Over a sinister Preemo-produced track, BLaq Poet summons the spirits and voices of old and dead MC's like Pac and Biggie to explain how they would perceive the rap game now. The intro track "I-Gettin" goes especially hard and is the perfect intro for the CD. DJ Premier supplies one of the hardest, toughest beats on the CD and Blaq Poet delivers with this classic hardcore lyrics. Poet's first single from the LP "Ain't Nuttin CHanged" meshes three samples together with a boom bap bass line typical of DJ Premier, and the results are phenomenal. Other standout tracks on the CD include "Hood Crazy" and the eulogy to Poet's former Screwball associate KL "Never Goodbye".
I first got into Blaq Poet because I was a huge fan of DJ Premier and they worked heavily together. However, Blaq Poet is an outstanding artist by himself, and he fills his second solo LP with the hardcore, grimey Queensbridge lyrics that he has become known for. Premier's ill beats defintley help the equation, which is clear when you hear the two non-produced Premier tracks ("U Phucc'd Up" and "Let The Guns Blow") and compare them to the rest of the LP. Overall, customers should def support this album because it brings to rap listeners some of that old school, back to basics hip hop that has been missing in the oversaturated market. PREEMO NEVER STOP MAKING BEATS!!!
