The tip of an iceberg.......2006-05-13

This CD is exceptional and deserves a very high rating; however, it is only the tip of an iceberg of talent that is going to change the world of hip hop forever.

Vordul is one of the best MCs in the game and this solo work is just scratching the surface. He is part of the revolutionary Cannibal Ox (with Vast Aire) and also does songs on a number of other albums (look for The Reavers (5 stars), Dreddy Kruger, Billy Woods, and others for great Vordul songs). The best thing about Vordul is his completely unique flow which invokes the best of Nas, GZA, and Tupac at the same time. It is slow and fast at the same time. Most importantly, this ridiculous flow is matched with the ability to lace great lyrics.

I never respected Vordul's full lyrical ability on his Can Ox stuff, but since hearing this album and his other stuff you have to respect the full manifestation of an MC. His lyrics are better than almost anyone else in the underground and when matched with his flow leaves the listener completely zoned in on the songs.

Although this album is not a concept album in any way, listening to the songs together gives the feeling of a complete album. This is rare for underground MCs to be able to put together an album that fits together and feels like the songs were chosen rather than just thrown together. For those of us that still respect records, it is nice to have an album which flows as a whole. I can't think of any release in hip hop in the last 10 years that has put itself together this well. This is a welcome return to the feeling of the early hip hop, although the lyrics and production push this to its extremes.

Finally, the production is excellent on the album. It is dramatically different than his Can Ox album; the beat is less ambient and more banging. The strange thing is that the beats here really play up his solo work and bring out the complete feeling that the cd invokes.

I know I've written a lot and hope it has been helpful. However, even though I dig this album and all of Vordul's other work, I'm still waiting for more stuff to come out. If this is the tip of the ice berg, we will be yelling "Holla Ill" for years to come.

Top 3 tracks: 1. Hell Yeah, 2. Holla Ill, 3. Blade

What A Gifted Project-Collector's Item.......2005-06-10

This is truly classic material; hard beats & flows, conscious lyrics with real life concepts. Incredible hooks, chants, shouts, I mean this is some good skit. 13 tracks of pure classics-Collector's Item.

very good album.......2004-12-10

this is a good album. I'm feelin this more than the Vast Aire joint. neva again is classic with a wu vibe to it and from then on he can pretty much keep up with that level. Production is pretty deep as well, this is more than the standard repeating loops. Only complaint I'd have is that the overall sound could be fatter.. but that has nothing to with vordul. He delivers, consistent flows like we know from the cold vein album. Pretty much the same subject matter and style. If you didn't like el-p's production you might like this.

only track I don't like is Blade. It's a wack beat and vordul doesn't match it. Lame attempt at a club track. Stay Up and Struggles are beautifull.
Too bad Nature Sounds has already released 3 of these tracks on a compilation so I already played them to death. Still 1 skip out of 13 tracks is exceptional. Just get it.. and support an honest and original mc.

Vordul Megallah.......2004-12-08

Vordul finally hits us with his long anticipated solo effort and i have to say it was well worth the wait. He did a great job picking out beats here, theres even a couple of joints that wouldn't have sounded out of place on the Cold Vein album. Suprisingly the only unworthy track was the joint Vast appears on. Unless your down with the typical bouncy club joints you'll probably be skipping that track when listening to this CD. My only other complaint with Yung Havoks is you won't hear Vordul spit about much of anything except struggling in the ghetto, and tough times, he does it well, but 13 tracks on the same subject can tend to be a little redundant. Don't let that steer you away from buying this though, if you loved Cold Vein you'll probably dig this joint. Vordul's solo is miles ahead of Vast's album.

Wow....sleeper album of the year........2004-12-02

I've always liked Cannibal Ox, and I've always thought Vordul came nicer than Vast. This is the album I've been waiting for, and with a ton of production by Belief, this one is a banger. Too bad this is one of those great albums that will probably be instantly forgoten.
