4.0 out of 5 stars Getting haters only means you're doing something right..., March 2, 2009
This review is from: Spirit of Apollo (Audio CD)
Seriously. I read Pitchfork's 1.6 review of this album. pppbbttthhhhh! There's so many guests on here that there's NO WAY that they're all going to stick out. People who score this low only seem to have done so because they were expecting tooo much. I love this album. The beats are AT LEAST solid (if not Timbaland or Dilla-quality), the guests are wide-ranging and did anyone else read about how it took them 4 years to get this album done? or how they got 5 different artists to come up with 5 different covers?

I saw this clip of Louie C.K. on Conan O' Brian (sp?) talking about how everything's amazing and no one's happy! This is a perfect example of the "most spoiled generation" not appreciating what they have. Before everyone was downloading music back in the early 00's, this would have been out of stock regularly at most independent record stores (remember those, kids?).

Let's start with track 1 and move down. Intro, good. 2 tracks with David Byrne and some other people, gets it off to a good "let's stop worrying about who has what and get into the music". The next two tracks have guest spots from Wu-Tang members and some other reliable members of the hip-hop community. Ohhh, wow... there's so many guest on here, but I noticed that some of them guest on tracks that follow the other one they guested on - that's called establishing a sense of con-tin-u-it-y and on proper albums (remember those?), it's a plus.

The good news is that there's hope for you yet - I used to be you. I had this amazing collection of independent hip-hop and sold quite a lot of it. After I moved out of my cynicism and attitude that it had to be unique and groundbreaking to be any good, I realized that it's freaking hard to come up with consistent beats (like this one) and book guests like they did and the fact that they persevered through 4 years means that $7.99 is the least you could part with for this album, you stingy b@st@rds ;)

p.s. I was going to give it 5 stars, but it just came out a couple of weeks ago and there's so much other stuff coming as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars An interesting mix of artists, May 9, 2009
This review is from: Spirit of Apollo (Audio CD)
The best thing I can say about this album is that its not quite as good as Dan the Automator's Handsome Boy Modeling School. Its very similar in format. DJ makes the beats gets some of the best hip hop artists around combine's it with Some of the most unique rock artists (NASA has David Byrne, Tom Waits and John Frusciante, Dan The Automator has Mike Patton, The Mars Volta, and Jack Johnson) and what you get is a very unique collection of music. Don't buy the album if you are looking for great DJ's but if you look at the list of contributors and see a bunch of artist you like then definitely buy this album. It is primarily a hip hop album with the likes of Method Man, RZA, KRS One, ODB, Kool Keith, Del, and many more. Check out tracks 3. Money and 8. Strange Enough. Peace!

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting project, October 19, 2009
By The writer (Sao Paulo, SP Brazil) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Spirit of Apollo (Audio CD)
This is the first cd I bought this year after reading an article in a national newspaper. The chemistry between then is undeniable and the collabos r great, all of them fits perfectly.On the other hand there's a couple of beats that didn't sound good but overall it's an interesting project plus the art cover is really beautiful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Both original and accessible
I loved it. It does a fair amount of experimentation but is still accessible and a lot of fun.

3.0 out of 5 stars Could be worse
This is exactly the kind of hipster indie/hip-hop cross-genre monster that it looks like. It has a lot of good names and seems like it could be great. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Great, spirited, danceable, listenable ...
This is my "CD of the year" so far; it's a first rate collection of artists ranging from David Byrne to Tom Waits to Kool Keith to George Clinton to Santogold to M.I. Read more
