The album is one big party and takes you to the essence of hip-hop: havin a good time, escaping everyday hassles. Some soul, funk and a little bit of disco and pop: it’s all in this very strong album.

This album’s old school all the way; funky drumbeats, synth samples and positive lyricism. The opening track 'The Overweight Lover’s In the House' is the official introduction of Hev in the music industry. If you had any doubt: Heavy D’s the girls’ favourite.

Walkman on, backpack full of cassettes and a trip on the bus, or futuristic metro according to the cover. Welcome to 'Junk Planet': a world of smooth, jazzy 21st century hip-hop.

It sounds like a sunny Sunday afternoon in the fall. But yo! Ain’t that just like the picture on the front sleeve?

It’s 1989 and Jesse West is on a warpath (besides T La Rock ;). The NY rapper took the mic, his weapon of freedom, and threw on his favourite t-shirt with the subscription 'Africa Must be Free'. He’s a renegade with a cause.

This album is one of the best things of 2004. A lot of people will sleep on it but please don't!

Throughout the album they never sound too corny, although it’s a love album. This is straight hip-hop, no gimmicks.

This LP only confirms: the man got skills. Where 'The Maysun Project' was an album with a deeper political message this album is more chilled, cooled out, focused on everyday life. Humour is never far away, as Insight opens the album with a fantastic imitation of Bahamadia.

'Twisted Mister' is a decent, consistent album but whether it will receive its props is doubtful. Oh well, maybe underground music needs its uncrowned kings.
