Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Panacea’s sophomore effort, The Scenic Rout, is a journey. Yes it is a hip hop LP, but more than that, it is a surreal, deeply musical and incredibly unique concept album. From start to finish, the listener is able to follow the evolution of not only the character on the journey, but of Panacea as artists. The result is something so new that its creativity will intrigue even today’s most jaded listeners.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must Buy for any fan of music, October 10, 2007
Great CD! The first time I listened to this CD, I didn't skip a track, and still i cant manage to skip one after listening to it countless times. The first time I popped this into my car's CD player, I must have taken the scenic route everywhere so i could sneak a couple more songs.. I have Panacea's Ink Is My Drink, and this CD might be better than their first (which i didn't think was possible when i was listening to it). Panacea is not a household name, but they definitely should be. In comparison to music that we listen to everyday, this cd blows them out of the water. Whether you like Hip-Hop or Jazz or live music or poetry, this is the CD for you. and dont think this is another one of those CDs that kill you with the intellectual conversation that puts you to sleep, this music has a great jazzy relaxed sound with almost a musical voice that blends with the music, and for those of you that are big fans of lyrics, the lyrics match the musical intensity. I heard that this group also goes by the name RPM (Restoring Poetry in Music) and that what they do on this scenic route of smooth jazz and poetic lyrics. I especially liked Pops Said..

5.0 out of 5 stars Its what Raw P. and K. Murdock intended, September 5, 2007
Not what the mainstream audience is used to, but I bet everyone can get hip to uplifting and creative music. Ofcourse that concept is always best ultimately. Im not gonna lie, this is actually music I am always hoping to show and forget whats supposedly hot.
