Notes:
The man is talented. His brand of
Gangsta-Reggae-Rap is actually pretty cool. His
flow is rhythmic and though his lines occasionally
contain a real clunker, ("Girl, we belong
together/I got vision all about you, givin' me
ple-asure") he generally brings his A-game to the
table.
Unlike many rappers, Scroo's lyrics aren't heavy on
wordplay, puns and double entendre. He writes
lyrics that are more in line with traditional Bob
Marley style reggae. It's a nice change of pace
from what's flyer than a G5 airplane? or whatever
else my roommate insists on blasting at 9 in the
morning. And too, the lyrics are generally good.
Scroo's new record, "Solid" displays his lyric
talent and ability to bend and contort words into a
rhyme. "Dream Dreams," a track that is basically
designed to put one in, the mood, is amusing and
head-bob worthy, even if the chorus does come off
as a bit misogynistic.
Bless & Enjoy.
