Murda Muzik (Audio CD)

Customer Review

It took three years until you got to hear from Mobb Deep to the crackers "The Infamous" and "Hell On Earth" again. "Murda Muzik" is her record in 1999, in the course provide many the question of whether the piece with the almost unsurpassable predecessors can match. As usual Havoc produced almost the entire disc, as well as The Alchemist and Down South Producer T-mix, the more you know of newer Cash Money albums, were ran times. Lyrically it goes as so often the poor world, the way to make cash, and the female sex, so no great development, but who wants that already?

With "The Streets Raised Me" starts "Murda Muzik" a bit reluctant, melancholic and very emotional, which is due to dark beats and a simple piano melody. In addition to the guys from Mobb also long-term feature Big Noyd will be there, just like singer Chinky that can still incorporate some R'n'B with. This is followed by "What's Ya Poison" together with Cormega one of the best tracks of the plate. Again you get a heavy bassline combined with piano commanded, but this time it sounds strong and slightly aggressive, Suitable something bissigeren Rhymes of Havoc and Prodigy. "Spread Love" sounds anything but sweet, but thunders toward a bleak, a certain drama can not hide. For the first time Mobb Deep rap here alone what something better comes as with guests.

A slightly quieter phase closes with "Let A Ho Be A Ho" and "I'm Going Out" (feat. Lil 'Cease) to it, and particularly the second can score with his gloomy sounds and its dynamics. Because this instrument Decorated with organ "Allustrious" brings an oppressive cemetery mood with which rape happen like an assembly line, especially the exclamation "We allustrious, Ashes to Ashes and Dust to Dust" and "We infamous, Ashes to Ashes and death through US "reinforce the feeling immensely. The ingenious style of the two predecessors is rolled back somewhat with the bomb "Adrenaline". Simple, but gloomy beats and eerie background sounds - simple, but very effective. P's voice is again made as for it, but also his partner Havoc as always fits well.

"Where Ya From" brings something Southern Blues with a, is therefore even more relaxed, very melodic and has good groove, without seeming out of place on a Mobb Deep album. The MCs take things a little more relaxed it here, highlight should be the grandiose appearance of 8Ball. Merely the name of "Quiet Storm" sounds great, the song even better. The mix of piano and bass wummerndem acts here very scary and mysterious, just pulling a song one in his spell, even if it is slightly uncomfortable. At the end of "Murda Muzik", there is also a remix to the not great differs up to the appearance of Lil 'Kim from the original. Something sad and again is very quiet "Where Ya Heart At" held, in which something is gefidelt in the background, which is a little Mafia style with introducing acoustic guitar in the foreground gives some emotion.

"Can not Fuck Wit" is a bit more modern and electric pumps energetic and featured way more Wu-Tang MC Raekwon. Is very different from what I think "Murda Muzik" from the previous albums that just lacks that certain something that grabs you and puts in awe in front of the gloomy overall picture. Here the quality is even throughout high, but songs like "Thug Muzik", "Murda Muzik" or "USA (Aiight Then)" simply do not remain hanging in the head or go a really close, even though they are undoubtedly good. Slightly better was achieved in the "The Realest" whose production is indeed not so exhilarating, but it creates veteran Kool G Rap to draw a with his rhymes in his spell. The most successful of the four singles are found with "It's Mine" at the very end. It is uncharacteristic of Mobb Deep. Very melodic, moreover in freshes 80s flair that is reminiscent of "Scarface". Somewhat surprising is probably the appearance of Nas, who performs the Hook to the rhythm of "The Boy Is Mine", but sounds good, just like the rape of three.

Unlike "The Infamous" and "Hell On Earth" grabs me "Murda Muzik" not always, however, one must also admit that it is extremely difficult to repeat this success without copying themselves. Mobb Deep bidding Although not entirely new, a development has yet to be felt. Fans of the boys from Queens are the plate have been guaranteed, but those who want it even be able to access even bravely.
