Album Description

OCEAN, singer-songwriter-producer, has infused the magical feel of the seven seas into MERMAID MUSIC, her first international cd release. Her hypnotic vocals and raps drift mesmerizingly aloft the hard funk of danceable rhythms, while the accents of other cultures take the forms of Turco-Arabic melodic and rhythmic influences, and her dreamy lyrics create a beautiful spell through the multi-ranged vocals of this truly gifted solo artist.

    I wanted to get this CD specifically for one song by the Flirtations "Nothing But A Heartache", which Art Bell uses as bumper music on his radio show. Much to my surprise the entire CD is a collection of fabulous songs. I have enjoyed almost every cut on this CD and recommend it.

              5 out of 5 stars Simply A Classic Among Classics.......2007-03-15

              1993 and 1994, ESG records an album that goes under the national radar, but definitely laid it down for the local Houston rap scene, and helped in large part influence that swang and bang mentality we know of today. 1994's Ocean Of Funk is an outstanding album from start to finish. Sean "Solo" Jemison has so much funk in his blood; he burns the tracks with sweet, soul and P-Funk samples and flips them into melodic G-Funk style beats that will get you addicted. Some sound quality may be low, but just turn the beat up, and the bass will kick in! ESG's mic skills are untouchable; just peep his flow on "Ocean Of Funk." His drawl definitely fits the beats well. Now if you have this along with his 1995 classic Sailin' Da South, you will notice that some of the tracks are similar or the same. "Crooked Streets" is the same on both, lyrically and beatwise. "RIP" from Sailin'.. has the same lyrics as "Anticipation," but the beats are both different, and awesome. But, both "Swangin' and Bangin's" have different beats and many lyrical differences. Both are absolutely excellent. The parallels between the two albums SHOULD NOT be a reason to only buy one or another. The rest of the tracks on both are marvelous. "Flipping" is a bouncy, lowrider classic over an Al Green sample. "My Real N----z" is slick using the same beat DJ Quik used in 1991's "Dedication" from his Quik Is The Name Album, only with a whiny keyboard and sick flows. The South is a 3rd coast anthem over a Parliament "Aqua Boogie" sample, so it will have a slight West Coast feel to it. The title track uses a Whodini beat pattern with keyboard melodies. It gives me goosebumps; the beat is immaculate. ESG says to "Close your eyes and open your trunk and sink into the ocean of this G-Funk" to open up this banger, one of my favorite lines in rap! This album is hella rare now, it may go for $40-60 in some places. But I highly reccomend this one. If yopu can definitely get Sailin' Da South as well. This cat is one awesome MC and "Solo" is one of the best producers out there. Don't let those 4 similar tracks between Ocean and Sailin' deter you. Both are worth every penny!

              5 out of 5 stars A TRUE SOUTHERN CLASSIC.......2004-10-22

              This is a classic must have CD for any southern rapper or rap fan. Swangin and Bangin Screwed is the very first screwed song I'd ever heard, and I've yet to hear one that grabs my attention the way this one did. I'd suggest anyone purchase this CD if you want to know where Flip, Big Moe, and Mike Jones got their ideas from. This is a classic for any "South Coast" collection.

              3 out of 5 stars THE REALEST DOWN SOUF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2002-03-02

              LET ME START OFF BY SAYING THAT I THINK HOUSTON AND DALLAS ARE GOING TO BE THE NEXT CITIES TO BLOW UP BIG IN THE US. IT HAS BEEN A LONG TIME COMING BUT THEY SAY GOOD THINGS COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT. TO ME THIS IS A DOWN SOUTH CLASSIC EVERY SONG IS A BANGER. MY FAVORITE SONG IS NUMBER 8. I AM A HARD REVIEWER SO I ONLY GAVE IT 3 STARS.

              4 out of 5 stars Classic South Sh-t.......2000-06-26

              this cd is a classic. its in constant rotation in my car cuz damn near every song bumps. my favorite jams are BIRDIES THAT DONT CHIRP, TWO GLOCKS TWO HOES, THE SOUTH, CROOKED STREETS, SWANGIN AND BANGIN' SCREWED. those are just the ones I can think of, but they're all tight. if you like ESG or Southside rap, you need this cd. its underrated compared to SAILIN DA SOUTH, but its a ride-bangah.
