5 out of 5 stars Hardcore Street Hip Hop.......2006-09-18

First off if you wonder who would spent over twenty dollars on this LP, look no further I am one of them. I bought this CD used for 20 but every cent was well spent. Nine's debut LP is nothin less than mind-blowing! If you feel like me in that everything that dropped between 94-96 was the illest...this album imbodies all of that. One of my Favorites for stellar production & hardcore rhymes!!!

4 out of 5 stars Nine - Nine Livez .......2006-07-03

Nine's debut album was "Nine Livez" (1995) a fourteen-track release. Nine's distinct gravelly voice and raw lyricism is a highlight of this release. Back before the days of mass downloading, and album's crafted by record companies, hungry rapper's like the Bronx's Nine provided unique album's like this one. Nine takes his listeners from hood to hood on "Ova Confident", and guides his audience through a grimy journey on "Red Rum". A raspy Nine lays down "Da Fundamentalz", and rips up "Hit Em Like That". Nine then brings the "champion style" on "Who U Won Test", stating that you never know what he's going to say next, which is true. Backed by some smooth production Nine shines on "Whatcha Want?", Nine kicks his feelings about what he wants backed by a nineties chorus. Nine advocates being a leader and not a follower on "Fo'Eva Blunted", another thugged out cut about making money and avoiding the police. Nine reps himself as the #1 contender on "Peel" and samples MC Shan on "The Cypha". Backed by some mellow production Nine keeps his audience entertained with some memorable lyrics and a humorous chorus on "Ahh S***". The "Everybody Won Heaven" (Redrum The Remix) works well. The beat to "Any Emcee" borrows from the Spinner's soul classic "Ill Be Around" , Nine delivers a creative cut sampling Rakim, repping himself with confidence on a head nodder. Nine closes this release off with the stellar "Tu Rasss". I recommend "Nine Livez", to those who enjoyed Nine's music back in the day and to people who enjoy slept on releases.

5 out of 5 stars Nine, Nine Livez.......2006-03-02

First off, let me just say that this cd was hard to come by, seeing as the label that signed Nine back in the day went bankrupt, and as a result, all the prints were pulled from shelves and the only place you could really find it was in used music stores, or here online. And it was a little pricey, but regardless of the fact, this CD is completely worth it. The beats are ill, the rhymes flow smooth, and Nine is completely unique--not like all those other rappers out there trying so desperately to be different & stand out. I was jammin to this when it first came out in the 90's and I was completely hooked. I highly recommend this to any old-school hiphop head (esp. those that can appreciate the late 80's/early 90's old-school). This cd is one of the best cds, will always be a classic favorite. I give it 5 stars all across the board.

5 out of 5 stars "I waste MC's like time...the one & only incredible, original Nine".......2006-01-18

Straight up, this album is amazing. No matter how many times I listen to it, it still gets better each time.

Nine's debut album is crammed full of dirty, dirty, dark beats that perfectly accentuate Nine's grimy voice (not quite Rock from Heltah Skeltah, but rougher than Smoothe the Hustler). Anyways, the production is STELLAR. More importantly, Nine is a truly dope MC. Unfortunately, most people remember him for his uniquely raspy voice and this has overshadowed his lyrical ability. It's a shame, 'cause his flow is totally on point w/ the beats and his lyrics are original and memorable.

Almost every track on this album (save 1 or 2) could be single, they're that good. I don't wanna separate any tracks from the rest (I love 'em all!) but the first single "Whutcha Want" is one of my favorite tracks ever. Also, I have to give mad props to Nine for the track "Hit 'em Like Dis," which features MC Froggy Frog, who is really Nine rhyming like a frog and trading rhymes with himself. Most people don't get this track when I play it for them, but those few who do appreciate how creative and funny it is...ahh 1995, when MC's could still have fun w/ Hip-Hop and not care what people thought.

Although this album seems kinda dark and grimy, trust me when I say that IT'S THE PERFECT STONER ALBUM. After the short intro, you'll be sold as soon as you hear "Ova Confident."

Bottom Line: This album is so good it's infectious. Nine is one Hip-Hop most unappreciated MC's and he'll always be one of my favorites. 5 Stars, peace.

4 out of 5 stars Nine - Any Emcee who disagree?!.......2005-12-09

The gravelly voiced Nine (so called because the number had a special and almost mysterious way of cropping up in his life) was a Funkmaster Flex protege revered by those who place an equal focus on the beats and production - in addition to lyrical dexterity of an emcees delivery. With a respectful nod towards the old school with a liberal peppering of MC Shan and Run DMC samples, Nine eschewed the grittier, harder edged street style, typical of New York emcees of the period.

Lead single "Watchuwant" with its jeep-riding video, its follow up, the Rakim-sampling "Any Emcee" and "The Cypha" are clearly the best cuts on the album. Overall, the album is well produced and because Nine never "blew up" commercially, the deleted CD is hard to find and commands a high second hand price.
