#rewindreview: Joell Ortiz & Kxxg Crooked ‘Rise & Fall Of Slaughterhouse’ 2022

  As a full disclaimer, I was never a Slaughterhouse listener. Not that any of the M.C.’s were not talented but during their initial run the music was not what I wanted to hear, on top of the fact original member Joe Budden I was not a fan of. His voice was always annoying to me and anytime his name was coming up outside of music, he was having issues with people I was actually fans of musically. Myself notwithstanding, Slaughterhouse had a solid fanbase and that audience was waiting on a follow up album from the group called ‘Glasshouse.’ Unfortunately for the audience the album never came to fruition due to the group’s label situation at Eminem’s Shady Records and the “retirement” of Joe Budden. Enter this album which provides a bit of closure for the Slaughterhouse fans as it’s title literally points out. Joell Ortiz and Crooked I a.k.a Kxxg Crooked break down the “rise and fall of Slaughterhouse” in a forty-five minute record that for me was surprisingly entertaining. The two had already made an EP called ‘H.A.R.D.’ as they continued to keep the gears from not being rusty but obviously were lacking the likes of their two other Slaughterhouse members. For me the only other person needed for either of Joel and Crooked’s releases was Royce Da 5’9,” who had also been seeing a renewed interest in the albums and music he was releasing. ‘Rise & Fall Of Slaughterhouse’ can be a bit awkward as eighty percent of the album is describing the disappointment Joel and Crooked have with the break up of the group and more specifically their disappointment with Joe Budden. What makes the album work for me is although the theme is obvious the music is more of what I would want to hear from the crew which was provided by The Heatmakerz, D.J. Pain 1, Hesami, D.J. Silk and a touching song ‘Look Mama’ produced by Fong Sai U. ‘Rise & Fall Of Slaughterhouse’ can feel like the the “b-team” crying about not getting as much playtime but this might be due to HOP music never really hearing an album themed with the tragedy due to the demise of a group. Joell Ortiz and Kxxg Crooked make for a solid duo, while Royce Da 5’9″ continues to elevate his solo career; and ironically I am a fan of “media Joe” Budden but still have not been sold on his previous music as of the time of this typing. Don’t take my thoughts about this group as an outsider listening in but see if as a fan one can understand the rise and fall of this “super group.” What did you think of the album?

#ReemoApproved 2023 Review Recap: AllStar JR Brings Organized Crime 2 DELUXE to NYC!!!

You had to be there, to understand the moment. AllStar JR “Organized Crime 2 Deluxe” Release was a Two-night event on that tilt of a wave. Also, the preview to his documentary was spot on of whom the artist is and has become after his trials and tribulations in LIFE. All in all, an artist that’s well deserving of his name, and his continuing success within the Hip Hop Culture. I had an interview with the Detroit native via THE C.U.T.S. PODCAST on Night 1, and we had a well detailed conversation about his career, growth as an artist, as well as why he only cares for his craft, and music he creates:   Organized Crime 2 was released in 1Q of January 2023, and now he’s released a Deluxe Version of the album that dropped in 2Q (April 2023, and OUT NOW!!!).

#Reemoapproved 2023 Review Recap: New York Music Month Conference 2023

Despite recently joining the Digiwaxx brand in 4Q 2023. I will admit this year was unique, and ascending for the #ReemoMeerakBrand, as well as for the contributions in media with interviews and events attended. All in all, want to show the readers, and viewers what took place, as well as captivating stories I’ve reviewed: New York Music Month Conference 2023 (June 2023) Great Conference Panel event.  Lots of well known, and potent figures and executives in the music industry expressing their expertise and knowledge of the business. Giving the creatives a litany of information to assist with their music career, and have their brand flourish. Also, the catering (Courtesy of NYU) was on point and well needed during the lengthy panel discussions. The main theme or rather push of discussion amongst the panels were the changes in DIVERSITY of the music industry, as well as the changes of roles with women and people of LGBTQIA+.  Technology, especially of the METAverse and A.I. were of heavy talks, as well as the ever changing trends of social media. Even, social media influencer/music artist; Chinese Kitty explained about how one of her major tracks went viral, and broke down the steps of how things occurred. The Branding Panel with Jesse Kirshbaum, Jennifer Frommer, Mike Ladman, & Travis Montage was huge because they broke down of what huge name brands are looking for, how they are using multiple brands to collab for a figure, and of the landscape in which branding has become. Jennifer Frommer, spoke a good amount of the panel with stories of Lil’ Nas X campaigns with YSL Beauty, Taco Bell, and of her process of putting quality campaigns together. The highlight of the conference, which was the end of it with; 50 Years Of Hip Hop Culture, Creation and Commerce PANEL. Torrae Carr was the Moderator with panelist; Kim Osorio (BET), Datwon Thomas (Vibe), Ebro Darden (Apple Music/Hot97) were having a great discussion about the Hip Hop Culture and where it has gone. Also, all three panelists agreed that hip hop is in a good space, but there’s more room to tweak things and make it greater. 50 Years Of Culture, Creation and Commerce PANEL Torres Carr – Songwriter/Recording Artist, Internal Affairs Datwon Thomas: Editor-In Chief (VIBE) Ebro Darden: Global Editorial, Head of Hip Hop and R&B Apple Music  Kim Osorio; Executive Producer – BET, VH1   Speakers:  Jem Aswad – EXECUTIVE Editor of Variety Ian Holder – Senior Vice President of Sony Music Publishing  Richard James Burgess, President & CEO Of AZIM (American Association of Independent Music)  Mitch Glazer – Chairman, and CEO of Recording Industry Association of America  Jen Lyon – Artistic Director/ Owner of MeanRed Productions  Chinese Kitty – Hip Hop Artist Doug E.

I was able to network with new faces, obtained some vital information regarding of the business conducted in the music industry, and the food with drinks kept me engaged. Only thing that bothered me was not enough music artists attended the event. I feel the more artists the better the value of the industry can increase.  Hopefully, NYMMC makes that a push for next year.  On to the NEXT #MyCreatives  Follow Me On Social Media: www.instagram.com/reemomeerak_ www.twitter.com/reemomeerak_ WEBSITE: ⁠ReemoMeerak.com⁠ Merch Store: https://reemomeerakbrand.myshopify.com/ For a feature, want me to do coverage, and a write-up on your event: [email protected]      

#rewindreview: Nems ‘Rise Of The Silverback’ 2023

  The hustle that Nems has been on spans about twenty years from features with D12, to the battle rap scene but where the New York rapper hit his stride was his online videos. The videos find Nems going up to random people on the street and joking on who they look like while ending the joke with “don’t ever disrespect me.” It looks like the most New York attitude one could receive in that city but Nems has a way of making the joke work. Never to be lost in the fake world of social media, Nems is actually a very down to Earth person who still believes that rapping is the mission. ‘Rise Of The Silverback’ is just the release to not only remind people he isn’t just an online personality but that he will (by his own words) slap the sh!t out you, proverbially on record of course… This is a HOP album that truly takes listeners back to a time of the sound of New York rap while still not sounding like it comes from the 1980’s or 1990’s. Scram Jones produces the album and provided Nems with a diverse number of beats to ensure the music isn’t monotonous. There are a couple of moments that get “nervous” for one not wanting to hear current music in their HOP listening like on ‘Demon’ and ‘Blickey, but the good thing about ‘Rise Of The Silverback’ is it keeps focus for a solid thirty-five minute runtime. Nems clearly comes from the school of “hardcore hip-hop” and one might notice his aesthetic is similar to an early Fat Joe. He reminds me more of the Non-Phixion section of the HOP where ‘non-blacks” create music that represent their environment but still have an identity that doesn’t stray into making a caricature of Hip-Hop culture. “Hide your kids ya’ll..,” because Nems curses on this album like it’s the year 1993 which creates a subtle nostalgia to the record that also comes with features from Sheek Louch, Fat Joe, Gunplay, Ghostface Killah, Tish Hyman and Peedi Crack. With only thirteen tracks you would think these featured talents overshadow Nems but instead the “Fuc& Your Life” rapper’s presence is never forgotten. In time Nems will evolve his content more and that is present on the track ‘Keep On’ where we find the most introspective rhymes from Nems running down his hustle to get from “A to B.” ‘Rise Of The Silverback’ might not be for everyone but it does break a stereotype that battle rappers can’t create a solid rap record. What did you think of the album?

Also, the patrons were at ease with the refreshments of Villion Cognac, and Bumbu Rum Co. The Dazed x Black Santa Company Toy Drive aimed to make a difference for the local community in need this holiday season with a toy donation to one of The Black Santa Company charitable partners the Think Watts Foundation.

#rewindreview: Boogiemonsters ‘Riders Of The Storm: The Underwater Album’ 1994

  When we were buying physical recordings of albums there would often be those purchases that were not perfect but they might be one of your favorite albums to listen to. This was ‘Riders Of The Storm’ for me. In the summer of 1994 I discovered The Boogiemonsters during one of the many moments I tried to position the antenna on my T.V. to pick up the fabled Video Juke Box. This was a platform that required viewers to dial in a request for music videos. Although I never made any request it provided me with exposure to many new acts at the time. ‘Recognized Thresholds Of Negative Stress’ was not only a mouth full of a title for a song but also had a very annoying or captivating hook. In 1994 the whole song was different and these voices were fresh with ideas and energy. The album would present more of the same but over the years I have come to the realization that there was a common theme behind the songs. Recently there was an article asking was this a “Christian Rap album?” Something that never dawned on me as I was always taken by the music but did catch the meaning behind songs like ‘Mark Of The Beast’ and the almost gospel like vibe of the title track. As HOP music went back then, there was going to be positive and inspiring lyrics with certain groups so I always took their mentioning of certain religious references as just a part of their music. Boogiemonsters had a good thing going with this record because rarely did it ever get boring but maybe the pace would slow down on ‘Muzic Appreciation…’ and ‘Salt Water Taffy…’ but would pick right up with a track like ‘Honeydips In Gotham;’ which was relatable to young men searching for the opposite sex during those days. The song that has to be the most talked about, and at the time odd but impactful is ‘Old Man Jacob’s Well.’ This was a song about child abduction and although I was fourteen at the time it creeped me out and reminded me of the days when television movies like ‘Adam’ warned children to stay away from strangers. The unique thing about the song was it comes from the perspective of the abductor and how his motivation was not malice but as natural as a predator in the wild. The Jimi Hendrix-esque guitar rifts in the music drove the track home and really leaves an imprint on the listener but this also why ‘Riders Of The Storm’ is such a cultural hit for those that know. What did you think of the album?

#rewindreview: Chill Rob G. ‘Ride The Rhythm’ 1990

  The name Chill Rob G. should be a familiar name if one has been a hip-hop head for years pre-internet. One of his biggest moments was the song ‘The Power’ which was one of the biggest pop hits in 1990 only it was from a group called SNAP but it was Chill Rob G.’s song…. and well you’ll have to due some studying on that. Throughout the years I have always heard tracks on this album but it wasn’t until last month that I finally got around to hearing ‘Ride The Rhythm’ in full. With the untimely death of Mark The 45 King, I was reminded to finally hear this album produced entirely by the now deceased legend. ‘Ride The Rhythm’ was released on Wild Pitch records which was kind of like an early Rawkus records in that the releases were never about “fluff” and true to an emerging HOP sound and demographic at the time. Chill Rob G. had the quintessential voice and style of HOP for this era which included battle rhymes, story-telling and conscious raps to open the ideas and minds of young listeners. ‘Court Is Now In Session’ is the track I most knew him for which takes personal accountability, the legal system and police brutality to task. ‘Bad Dreams’ finds the “future shock” rapper going through one’s P.T.S.D. scenarios of urban living while sleeping. Although Chill Rob G. can keep it very serious over these up-tempo beats by Mark The 45 King he provides plenty of moments of showing his reason for being a top prospect on the mic for that era. The title track of this album is probably my favorite and is one of the few tracks I’ve heard over the years. ‘Ride The Rhythm’ is infectious and ‘Hard Times’ by Baby Huey is sampled perfectly by Mark The 45 King, providing a blueprint to how the sample would be utilized by other artist later on. ‘Ride The Rhythm’ as an album is not perfect but does have it’s place in the pantheon of the HOP’s second generation and influence on where the music would go. Rest in beats to the architect of this albums music D.J. Mark The 45 King. What did you think of the album?

#rewindreview: Polyrhythm Addicts ‘Rhyme Related’ EP 1999

  The day I purchased this release in the summer of 1999 I also purchased Lootpack’s ‘Soundpieces: Da Antidote’ so needless to say my ears were beyond satisfied. Polyrhythm Addicts was a collaboration similar to Black Star, where individual M.C.’s teamed up to create a supergroup. Apani B. Fly Emcee, Mr. Complex & Shabaam Sahdeeq made for the core rappers while beats were all provided by D.J. Spinna. For me none of these names could do no wrong going into this EP. ALL OF THEM had shaped my HOP perspective by 1999 with independent 12″ singles, features and songs that never left me unsatisfied. The collaboration of all four was icing on a cake that audiences unfortunately would never get to taste again. Polyrhythm Addicts was yet another example of how dynamics in groups from the yesteryears of HOP music were critical to why those were the best of times. Shabaam Sahdeeq was the marksmen shooter with his lyrics, while Apani provided the voice and delivery that was so perfect for the texture of this release and Mr. Complex’s abstract style of rhyming makes the group “not your ordinary.” Add on D.J. Spinna who by the late 1990’s was in a zone unmatched with his production. From beginning to end ‘Rhyme Related’ never let’s up. ‘Take Me Home’ which has one of the few features on this album with Pharoahe Monch reminds me of the summer season this EP came out in. The previously released ‘Not Your Ordinary’ fits perfectly after that with D.J. Spinna’s signature sound. Songs like ‘Should Have Known Better’ and ‘Nervous Breakdown’ capture the synergy of the M.C.’s like an updated Funky Four Plus One. It is ‘Big Phat Boom’ that hits the soul though. With dreamy production from D.J. Spinna and a vocal sample from Q-Tip proclaiming the name of the group “Polyrhythm Addicts…,” Apani solidified her rankings with me as an M.C. on this track. If ever there is a question as to why she is one of my favorite women rappers, her lead off on ‘Big Phat Boom’ is a small sample to why. I could go on about this EP but it’s downfall is that it was only an “EP” not an album. The impact this release could have made as an album with a few more songs is a ‘What If…’ moment for me and although a full album from the group released eight years later, it was missing a key element in Apani B. Fly. This is still one of my favorite listens and much like a rare diamond, I try to appreciate ‘Rhyme Related’ as such. What did you think of the album?

Glasses Malone Dares Cancel Culture with Cancel Deeez Nutz

There was a time and era where West coast ruled the airwaves, where you would hear Dr.Dre, Ice Cube or Snoop oozing out of speakers everywhere and wonky synth leads over G-Funk hooks were the standard. Glasses Malone latest project Cancel Deeez Nutz provides that feeling again and also transports listeners to L.A. with a cohesive backdrop of well produced music.  The name of the project perfectly personifies the content, as Glasses forces us in the old school through LA hoods in 2023. Kicking the door with the title track “Cancel Deeez Nutz,” which sets the bar for what some will deem offensive material in the era of cancel culture. Glasses dares them with memorable assistance by the L.A. Giantz who raps “I believe Kathleen is still a man/ RKelly Music turned up I’m still a fan,” over staccato string stabs. The rapper delivers with an authentic proud middle finger to the cancel culture on certain topics with songs like “Kanye Should Have Married (That Bitch),” and “Sum VI Bitchez.” Malone gives listeners a little bit of everything with lyrical hip-hop driven joints like “21’ Stimy Flow” and “Tha Loc,” while taking listeners on a California journey with songs like“ My Nyk Cortez,” and “Palm Trees and Roses.” The most notable of these, the ode to one of his favorite hood food spots with “Jim Dandy’s.” The song opens with a pimpish interpolation of Cameo’s “Candy,” as Glasses flips a classic Snoop line while telling us about the treacherous route just to get there. The second verse delivers a play by play scenario of the game of life or death for some chicken, but the song delivers shiny and glistening like a delicious chicken wing; undeniable. The real treats of this project are “Us” and “Tale of Whitney’s Plug.” The foremost song is introduced with a clip from Cedric the Entertainer from the movie Be Cool, before diving into a classic Westcoast beat, featuring Joey Westside. This track is a flag of Black pride and celebration of the Black influence. Delivering with deep striking passion, over fly production that maintains the Westcoast cool vibe at the same time.  The latter is an interesting journey, not only sonically but the bars as well. The cranky voice of Samuel L. Jackson’s character Stephen from DJango Unchained quickly enters, before cutting into a surprisingly cut sample. Glasses paints the scene purposefully and methodically, while laying out the dope game in story form over another banger by producer E.P. Who noticeably does an impeccable job of creating a cohesive and consistent high-level of production throughout the project.  The project delivers well for the seasoned MC, even the outro track “Walk Off” slaps, with assistance from Kokane. Glasses gives proper salutes and tributes to Battlecat, Dsmoke, and other collaborators over a thumping jawn.  Although the project is thorough and consistent, it is also polarizing. This is not something you play for everyone, but Glasses draws his line in the sand with no apologies. Those who rock with it are provided with endless C-Walking material and funky slaps.  Favorite Song: “Tale of Whitney’s Plug” Least Favorite Song – Undecided, there’s not really an un-listenable song.  Rating 8.0/10
