Not exactly what you'd expect, but still a good album

I was attentive to Eko through a video about his first video from his new album "German Dream" with the name "German Dream". Previously, I found that he did not meet my level, but I had not seriously enough busy with him and knew him only by "Quote Turk" what I call quite funny, but felt as pretty tasteless. In "German Dream" I found him likeable right away and the song itself was good. Then came "1000 bars", I think is a masterpiece with an Eko Fresh, which was probably to compare in terms of technology with any other German rappers; a thoroughly enjoyable work that has convinced me above all to this purchase. However, I bought "German Dream" not directly or ordered it from me, but still waited a while to be swayed me from the reviews from other shoppers. However, these were not as good, which made me a bit to ponder. Ultimately, I bought it to me, it was a good buy, I do not regret, but I do not quite like the plate. Why? Coming up here.

First of all, must be made clear that the technology from Eko "1000 bars" can not keep up and many rhymes are not as good and listen to something unclean. From end rhyme I would not speak, but real technical perfection mature Lines, which show how well Eko really is, one finds rather rare. The other complaint I have is that clearly are too many features on the album. More than half of the tracks have been recorded by other artists, which personally does not necessarily bother me, since you also a certain diversity expected, but with most of the guests I can start rather little. Also really big names are likely nil. Of course, Sido, Summer Cem, Farid Bang and Samy Deluxe really good rapper and also Tim Bendzko is not unknown, but generally are too many unknown rapper on. Of course it's great to always find someone new, but one should therefore act in moderation and not in rows more or less successful and have especially talented rappers on the album.

This does not mean that the album is bad. But on the contrary! The feature with Kurupt, for example, very well done and some tracks are really funny. (For example, "Lan let ma ya") I also like the old-school beats, which attract well through the entire album.

In conclusion, one can say that you can actually do little wrong with buying the plate, but one should not expect to get a level of "1000 bars" delivered, but what is an expected definitely continuous entertainment with thrilling and loose Old School-beats.
