Boo Yaa..........2006-01-06

Boo Yaa were the First Samoans to make it big in the rap industry. The New Funky Nation is a great album that has great lyrics. Their lyrics touched everythang from Gangsta Lifestyle to club banging. I have this cd and am proud to still bump it. I am proud of how they put 684 and Carson on the map. Anyways, a must have CD and also I recommend you purchase thier other CDs to.

Boo-Yaa Tribe Rules!!!.......2004-11-25

I bought "New Funky Nation" at a rummage sale for 25 cents, and it was a hell of a bargain! That was last summer and i still can't get enough of it. Now i'm looking for more Boo-Yaa funk and i can't wait!

This is a hot album!.......2003-08-15

For anyone who loves that West Coast Cali flavor, you have to buy this one. Finally some bloods from LA put it down like they were supposed to. The production over most of the album shocked me. It was hot from start to finish. Some of it starts to get a little repetitive at times but then they hit you with another hot ass track. If you want real gangsta music from real LA gangstas, then this is a must have.

Much older than '95.......2003-01-20

This is an unbelievable album. Old school hip hop meets metal samples! Bang your head to this. FYI---I had a cassette copy of this album (long since lost or eaten), recommended by a friend (good call Rick), at least as early as 1991. Which I think makes it even more ahead of its time. Wouldn't mind having it on cd.

From the first notes of the title track, it's obvious that Lil' Brian is a man with a mission--to bring da funk to zydeco. And that's nowhere near as strange as you might think; after all, the two share common musical roots. More to the point, Brian and his band (protégés of Buckwheat Zydeco) make it work very well. The vocoder refrain on "Get Up On That Zydeco" could almost have come from an old Roger and Zapp record, while "Summer Girl" has more melody than most modern R&B. There's also plenty of "true" zydeco to convince purists that this is more than a novelty, and that this band's East Texas roots run deep--just check "Uncle Cliff" or "Party" to hear them whipping it up. This is the real thing, but it's also more. What it does, essentially, is offer one possible way forward for zydeco, while still honoring the tradition. And that's a major deal. --Chris Nickson

Nouveau Zydeco.......2003-08-28

This cd is excellent. I have been a fan of Zydeco music for a number of years, but this recording is very good. I have seen this band several times and they are hot and do rock the house. They are a new wave type zydeco but can play classic style as well. I really feel they have not recieved the recognition they deserve. They are also like most Zydeco performers the nicest bunch of guys you could meet. I do recommend Funky nation as well as Fresh and Z Funk.

Funkin' it up.......2000-03-14

Lil' Brian & the Zydeco Travelers are THE hottest band on the noveau zydeco circuit. Pat's totally hot guitar licks, EJ's heavily funk influenced bass lines, and Lil' Brian's vocals and powerful piano-key accordion all make for the most danceable music to come along in a long time. This is the band's third release, and it's certainly their best. As a bonus, they're also some of the nicest guys you could ever have the privilege of meeting. Buy this CD!
