now this ep is just to much fun. right from the get up your thrown into a fast paced hip-hop verbal bout between the gift of gab (blacklicious) and lateef the truth speaker (latyrx). right through to the final track, that is perfectly suited for bbq's on hot days and long afternoon drinking sessions. throughout this release is a light summer vibe. lots of moog bass and arp strings. vintage synthesizers. joining them on the production tip is headnodic, drummer and producer of the very talented hip-hop/jazz band crown city rockers. with a line up of guests including mf doom, ladybug mecca dj shadow and rashan ahmad (also of crown city rockers fame) is guaranteed to satisfy any part of you musical side. the ep, aptly titled the prelude, is exactly that. a prelude to the full lp, which will be released from these guys in early 2008. and if this release is anything to go by, then i strongly suggest you go and spend as much money as is needed to get your hands on this, any other releases by these guys and all future efforts. you can purchase the ep online from giftstribution.com. find put more about gab, lateef and the rest of the quannum family over at quannum.com and solesides.com.
