When you think of hip-hop from Los Angeles, so you immediately have the name great gangster rappers like Eazy-E, Ice Cube, Ice-T or The Game in the head. Hardly anyone knows Chali 2Na, Akil, Zaakir (Soup), Mark 7even, Cut Chemist and Nu-Mark. Together they form the six-member band Jurassic 5 (Cut Chemist left after this album the group). Their music is completely different from that of their colleagues from LA. Rather than rely on hard beats and lyrics J5 to a successful mix of Native Toungue and radio. Everything is very melodic, often backed by instruments and constitutes very intelligent lyrics that are somewhat reminiscent of East Coast greats such as Little Brother or De La Soul. An example would be "If You Only Knew", a more relaxed, produced by Beatnuts Member Juju track which offers flutes in the background and the transmissive rape of Jurassic 5. Pretty oldschool standard is "Break", which as the name suggests is based on a breakbeat, which was more typical of the 1990s, a little spark to finish and is another great track. By far the best song of "Power In Numbers" is the hit single "What's Golden" which was supposed to be anyone who deals with something Rap a term. Nu-Mark's Beat is indescribable. Rather something harder and faster, but doing it without grooving end, to the horny Rhymes from the rest of the crew. A Dream. Other tracks that can convince just as are the slightly quieter and chilled "Thin Line" with Nelly Furtado, the fast, backed by instruments such as horns and bells feel-good track "High Fidelity" and party track "Sum Of Us". All these songs are to die, abweschlungsreich and intelligent. In other words: This is true art, hip hop as he is in the book. Finally, the album with the very cool, soulful and very relaxing "Hey" and the back very fast and funky party track is "I Am Somebody" rounded. As a bonus, there's then "Acetate Prophets" even a track without rape, ask at the Cut Chemist and Nu-Mark just their qualities as DJs prove. For fans of the genre certainly interesting, I personally like it less. On the whole, was "Power In Numbers" a very freshes album depicting times a good contrast to bad pop rap a la 50 Cent etc.. Unfortunately there are also some annoying skits, but because you can quickly see over it. Anyone who wants to try something different, high-quality hip-hop is dead right when Jurassic 5 and does nothing by purchasing false.
