Loved it!
What a pleasure! For once a story that parents can enjoy along with young adults. I can not wait for another one from this author.
Amazon marketplace
It was never my choice to use the marketplace, but only to order direct from Amazon. This is not EBay. Unfortunately, it is not always clear on the website. This experience was horrendous. I have never received my order. I have been bombarded with useless, annoying, and harassing emails from archivmusic. I still do not have the order. I will seriously rethink ordering cds from Amazon if this is going to be typical. And this company, whatever it is, needs to be told that repetitive annoying emails are not a substitute for the ordered product.
Nasty...Big Pooh Comes Correct
I love this album. Maybe one track I might skip, but that's stretching it. I love the production and Pooh is hungry and spits with passion. Lyrics are definitely on point and 9th and Krhysis come with some of their best beats. This is a classic in my eyes. I don't care what no one else says. Can't wait for that new LB, "The Minstrel Show." Justus League never disappoints.
Oh my... The Most Slepted on LP in the last 10 years, easily
Big Pooh dropped a beautiful LP here. And like that proverbial tree in the forest, nobody seems to know about it. If you're new to Little Brother, my advice for you is to listen to this LP, and compare it to the mainstream efforts out right now. I'm betting you'll be kicking yourself afterwards. Don't worry, there's more folk out there that had no idea either. So do them a favor and wake them up before it's too late.Looking for weak songs? Look elsewhere, 9th's prodcution is already legendary. Weak lyrics? You won't find them here either. Pooh does more than give you that hot ish, he makes sense as well. If there is an equal to any of Little Brother's projects ("The Listening" and "The Minstrel Show") It's this one.The only problem with this LP, is.... it's over too quick, or so it seems. The "quickiest 45 mins you'll ever have in your life", no doubt.
Excellent CD coming from the Justus League
Big Pooh is the forgotten member of the hip-hop trio Little Brother. Phonte is the more distinguished MC and the producer 9th Wonder gained national attention for producing a song on Jay-Z's Black Album. That being said, Big Pooh can more than handle his own on his solo joint Sleepers. From the jump-off this CD is quality. The bulk of the production is handled by Krysis and 9th Wonder both of whom lace Sleepers with soulful and head-nodding beats. Pooh touches on subjects from the harsh reality of low income living in "Heart of the City" to his strained relationship with his brother in "Live Life" and that is Pooh's strong point. He can rap about all types of scenario's from light hearted to deep and always keep his polished flow. Also, the beats are SOLID. Track #11 could easily be track #1, the whole disc is great from beginning to end and I think that is what is really lacking in rap today. Anyone who picks this up won't be disappointed, a near classic.
A Short Review Because ...............
I wrote a long one before the power flashed off. Regardless, this album is a banger. Though, Khrysis is a bonified genius and 9th is ...well 9th, Pooh steps up the lyrics on here. Though I love this album, one thing bothers me. Nicolay blessed Pooh with a gem and he chose to let O-Dash rap by himself. Anyway, my three favorite cuts are "Strongest Man", "Just Friends", and "The Fever". Justus League is about to flood the market. Be on the lookout for L.E.G.A.C.Y. (Project Mayheim), The Away Team (National Anthem), 9th Wonder (Mr. Dream Merchant), Median (Median's Relief), Buckshot & 9th (Chemistry), and Jean Grae (The Phoenix).
