## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Tightly wound, even melodic rapping
  

*by I***E on Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2006*

Featuring some of this stellar mc's hungriest work, Melodica remains a focused, well produced, powerhouse rap ep. Gift of Gab has to have the most impressive aresenal of rapid fire syllabic control I have ever heard, although his tone and oft- off kilter tendencies usually rub rap fans wrong. While Gab's overly ambitious verses may alienate the uninvolved, anyone who has ever cared for the art of rhyme should be able to see through the blatantly ambitious raps and cut right down to that essence where the usage of words as an organic microbeat with wit included.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    sure shot classic material
  

*by D***S on Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2006*

This is the one that started it all and I'd say probably the best release from Blackalicious.  When I got this cassette it was in heavy rotation and when I finally got a car, it was in the deck constantly.The debut of Gift of Gab, Chief XL, DJ Shadow and the SoleSides crew.  Simply put, the title "Melodica" represents exactly what the EP is, a collage of music, styles, heart, soul, beats and lyrics.  Each cut on this EP is amazing, with so much depth and yet at the same time very simplistic.  Boom Bap breaks, bragadocious flows and concious lyrics with a soundtrack provided by Chief XL, Shadow and Automator.  (programmed and recorded the EP)Comparing this release to the groups later efforts shows the artists' growth, but yet shows how hungry and driven the artists were.  "Give it your all as if it's your only shot," that's the feel of this effort.  The entire SoulSides crew poured thier soul out on this effort and in return made a classic EP.

    buyer beware!!!!!!!
  

*by K***S on Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2005*

i must warn you that anyone who thinks it might be a good idea to buy this album at $70 plus is sorely mistaken.  This album is not as rare as people make it out to be.  In fact you could go to a local FYE store and have them special order the 1994 release of this album for as little as $7.99.  Please do not be made a fool of by these people trying to pass this masterpiece off as rare.
