Here we go folks, this is the The first triple disk album in hip hop history. 60 tracks over the course of 3 meals, lunch, breakfast and of course dinner. Grimm himself has said this album was never intended to be listened to in one sitting, rather it should be soaked up as separate meals just as the disk titles suggest. Grimm has damn near done the impossible on this, while most artist cant make a single disk album with no filler and can only dream of a double disk, Grimm has come through with a THREE disk album with little to no filler.

The production at its absolute worst is solid, nothing really bad to complain about, the beats all have very different sounds and different melodies that give them all there own distinct feel, you'll never have to worry about being bored of what you're hearing because all the diversity keeps things very fresh and exciting. Grimm himself is solid enough, he has moments of brilliance but also falls victim to moments of mediocrity. speaking strictly on his abilities to mc I feel he could have done better, some tracks he flows over like he has no interest in riding the beat and others he brings in lyrics so sub par that you have to check to see if the cut features a Grimm sound alike with less talent. Luckily these moments of weakness are few and far between, Grimm is still a very gifted mc and he pens concepts and executes them to great effect.

Grimm's songwriting is really the star here, his hooks and melodies carry the album through all 60 tracks. He uses just about every part of the production in some way or another and often crafts very catchy hooks that mesh perfectly to create some very solid songs. This is in fact what made it possible for Grimm to do a triple disk album, he recognized that 60 songs of an mc simply spitting tradition verses with basic rhythm and ordinary hooks simply would not work, he chose instead to craft every song to very specific points on each beat to keep things interesting. True he does sacrifice his flow as an mc, but he elevates so much more as a songwriter thats its easy to forgive.

Overall the album is a success, it does have its share of faults but they're easily overlooked as the overall product is simply amazing, 3 disk worth of good music, what more can you ask for? 

Overall 4/5

Firstly this is technically Grimm under his 'GM (Grand Master) name, its just for organizing sakes that I add the MF. Second I actually dont know a lot about this cd, I know it has production from the likes of J-Zone, X-Ray and some dudes ive never heard of. The album as a whole has a very dark and raw vibe which both works for and against it which i'll explain shortly. Grimm himself is as on point as ever, his lyrics are dope and his flow is sharp, as an mc he hasnt lost a step.

Now ive heard Grimm wrote the majority of this in prison, again Im not going to pretend like this is truth since I know little about the albums background, but keeping this in mind really helps you get a feeling for the album. I said before that the album had a very dark and raw vibe to it, so dark and raw in fact that it almost sounds as if it could have bee recorded in a prison, Grimm literally creates an atmosphere here thats very dark and claustrophobic, paranoid and angry, and above all entertaining. At times though this works against the album, so raw and unpolished is this lp that its sure to turn away new listeners. Its so stripped down to its necessity's that it almost feels as if its missing somthing, at times you'll be waiting for the rest of the beat to kick in only to find that the sparse beat is about as layered as its going to get. Also at 21 tracks it feels a bit bloated.

All of that being said the album is a must for fans, throw on some headphones and you can almost feel yourself sitting next to Grimm in his prison cell. A little more polish could have either helped this album or completely derailed it but as it stands the raw, sparse sound works more often then it doesnt.

This is a collection of MF Grimm songs from the early 90's up to 05. Its meant to showcase the growth of Grimm as an artist and does a fine job of doing so. Grimm's early style was much more influenced by G Rap (who appears on this LP) and his style had a much harder edge. His flow here is often much faster then the average Grimm fan will be used to but its very dope all the same. Lyrically Grimm covers multiple topics, finding a nice balance between gangster rap and social commentary, concept wise he has what could possibly be my favorite Grimm track ever, 'Bloody Love Letter' finds Grimm writing the last letter he'll ever write, lying in the snow dying after his shooting, its very well done and everything about the song works.

The album is laced with Grimm interviews that offer a lot of insight to the man behind the mic and actually add a lot more depth to the overall package. The production is typical early 90's New York, you'll either love it or not care for it, for the most part though is still sounds very good and has aged remarkably well. My only gripe is that I felt some of the mastering of the music wasnt as good as it could have been.Bottom line though is that if you're a Grimm fan, a New York Hip Hop fan, a 90's hip hop fan, or just flat out like good music then you have no excuse not to check this. The album is a banger front to back and showcases Grimm at his most hungry.

12. Horehound + Sesame Seeds = Tonight's Show Ft. Invisible Man & Lord Smog
13. Outro - Fat Man Scoop
14. My Love

Let me Sum this album up real quick, this album is pretty much MF Grimm kicking rhymes over a bunch of DOOM laced production, the beats of course come via DOOM's special herbs series which means they're all something you've heard before. That being said though this is still a solid album, I mean yes I would have much preffered some fresh DOOM production but its also kinda cool hearing what Grimm does with some of these classics and what direction he takes them in to.

Sadly there is still another negative I must mention, Grimm himself is somewhat off on this album, half the time he sounds as if he doesnt know how he wants to flow on the beat and the other half his lyrics are really lacking. Ive been told he freestyled a good portion of this and it easily sounds as if it could be true, simply put its not up to Grimms usual standard, that isnt too say its bad, but disappointing. As a whole the album is very interesting and entertaining, the production is classic and when Grimm is on point the album works perfect, its when Grimm isnt bringing his A game that the album falters and sadly that seems to be the case for the majority of the record.

This is Grimm's 24 hour masterpiece, after being sentence to Life in prison back in 2000 he managed to come up with $100,000 needed for a one day bail, in that time he created this. Now first and foremost I want you to really think about that, this is someone who is so dedicated to hip hop that in his last 24 hours as a free man he decides he wanted to spend it recording music, out of all the things in the world he could do he chose this, and thank god he did. Also for those wondering Grimm beat his life charge and is of course a free man, but im sure you already knew that.

Downfall is somewhat of a concept album, albeit a very loose one. To sum it up simply it tells the story of a fallen angel, its not a concept the album shoves down your throat but rather somthing in the background, behind the scenes bringing everything together. Grimm also brings some concept tracks in to the fold and effectivly creates what can only be called "a concept inside of a concept", its a stroke of genius and works perfectly. The production on the album is handled by the likes of the legendary Count Bass D, DJ Rob A, DJ Eli, Cas, Dr Butcher and of course Metal Fingerz himself, MF DOOM (who handles the bulk of the production). The production is simply flawless, creating atmospheres and sonic landscapes for Grimm to vent his angst, anger and frustrations over.

Grimm himself is in top form, you would think a man about to spend his life in prison may be shook to his very foundation but Grimm uses this angst and focuses it in to his music. His flow is still as smooth as ever but his lyrics are very deep and express his inner most fears and thoughts, the standout "Voices Pt. 0" shows Grimm at his best, kicking paranoid rhymes with hints of remorse and self reflection. Guest wise MF DOOM stops by for some show stealing verses, Megalon gets a solo track in what will go down as the highlight of his career, and Count Bass D takes the time to drop a few words. The real star of this show though is Grimm and we're never let to forget that, simply put this album is his magnum opus, no matter what Grimm does after this it will all be measured against this, in the span of 24 hours he created a masterpiece, somthing most mc's wont be able to do their whole careers.

MF GRIMM & MF DOOM - The MF ep

11. The Original (DJ Fakts One Remix) Instrumental

12. Break em Off Instrumental

13. Dedicated Instrumental

14. The Original (Ninja B Remix) Instrumental

Kicking things off with the MF ep, an extended play split between MF DOOM and MF GRIMM with the instrumentals tacked on the end for good measure. Any hardcore fan will be familiar with the 3 DOOM tracks with the possible exception of the Doomsday remix that knocks just as hard as the original, 'No Snakes Alive' is an abstract masterpiece with the beat slowly creeping along then finally speeding up as each mc rips their verses (Rodan is the show stealer here) and finally 'Impostas' is classic DOOM, another murky beat with the Metal Faced Villain doing what he does best.

The Grimm side is equally as dope, sonically is takes a much different approach with a more tradition sound and songwriting style, the beats hit hard and Grimm brings his A game, his flow is smooth and his lyrics are Razor sharp, showcasing why he's one of the deepest mc's in the underground with simple yet effective lines that'll have you wearing out the rewind button. Having the instrumentals is a fantastic bonus as well, all the beats are dope and well worth the listen. The overall product is dope but this IS an ep meaning that in all reality we only have 7 tracks worth of music, most of which can be found elsewhere on either mc's albums. That being said though its a great starting point for new fans and a pleasant refresher for older fans alike.

Psalm One is one of the most slept on mc's ever...period. She's easily one of the nicest females to ever do, her flow is always on point, her voice is strong, and her lyrics are razor sharp. This mixtape finds her kicking freestyles over some of the hottest beats (at the time anyways) and crafting some of her signature songs. She really is a fantastic artist and its a shame she's gone overlooked for so long, especially with the recent success of Jean Grae, you would have thought that may have opened a few more doors for female mc's, either way though when its all said and done Psalm is a worthy investment of your time and an essential female mc.

also for anyone interested i'll be upping her albums a future time

Tracklist should tell you everything you need to know, this is a tape made of some classic Soul Assassin music, plus some unreleased joints and a few blend tracks from DJ Solo. the mixtape as a whole really bangs, it covers a lot of ground and showcases the Soul Assassin squad at many different times over the years, getting to hear how Muggs production evolves alone is worth the download, the unreleased and blend tracks though are simply icing on the cake. This is a must for Cypress Hill or DJ Muggs fans

This works very well on two different levels, on one hand you may be new to some of these artist and its really a fantastic tape to introduce you to some artist you may have never heard otherwise, or two...well if you're a fan of these artist anyways its dope to have all these songs on one mix thats cut together so well. This is usually the tape I give out to cats who ask me to recommend them some new artist, classic hip hop from an amazing DJ, doesnt get much better then that.

The tape consist of Stat kicking freestyles over some of the hottest beats, showing off his songwriting skills, pulling in some big name features, and being showered with words of love from some of the biggest names in hip hop. Stat himself is an interesting mc with capable lyrics and a unique flow that lends itself perfectly to mixtape format. Def a southern banger, shame son never got his chance to shine and put out an official project.

Not a whole lot to say about this one, read the Pete Rock blend summary and replace his name with Dilla and you've got the idea. honestly I like this one a little bit less only because I feel like Food Stamp picks some of the more abstract and awkward Dilla, and to be completely honest a lot of these artist simply dont sound natural over the legends production. its still a very nice and well done blend and I still enjoy the hell out of it, just a warning though that it may take a little while to really sink your teeth in to

This is but one of the many blend tapes put out by DJ Food Stamp, this tape see Stamp taking some classic tracks and cutting them together with some legendary Pete Rock production. One thing Food Stamp does better then most any other "Blend DJ" out there as...well his blends actually sound good, you never get a blend from him that sounds out of sync or awkward, he knows what he's doing and he does it well. That being said some of the tracks work better then others, some add a unique vibe to a classic track and some just dont sound very appealing at all, and even though it may not be essential listening, its still a lot of fun.

Firstly, the remix album is handled by DJ Kwestion & Haze, Haze handles 4 tracks (with the *), Kwestion takes the rest. Kwestion is JMT's tour DJ and technically a member of the group (although often overlooked). Kwes and Haze are def no Stoupe, but what they do here is pretty dope none the less, they laces each track with a new and fresh sound which sounds like nothing else Vinnie Paz has spit over, its a unique opportunity to hear a different take on a JMT record and hear Vinnie over a producer other then Stoupe. Not as good as the original, but still worth the time to check out.

Another banger of a mixtape, this time its the precursor to DJ Muggs and Planet Asia's classic album, Pain Language. Aside from a few cuts off the album this is pretty much a completely fresh tape. Planet Asia rips through some of Muggs most classic beats(also an MF DOOM beat oddly enough) and does them justice in the process, I cant stress enough just how talented PA is as an mc, and we already know Muggs is one of the greatest producers to ever bless us with a beat, so it stands to reason that lacing PA with Muggs already classic production can only turn out an amazing product, and luckily it does just that.

One of my favorite mixtapes of all time, it features a boat load of unreleased cuts, remix's, exclusives and rarities that will make any Wu head happy. The Remix's are amazing, the unreleased cuts sound just as good as anything out, and it all comes together to form one cohesive sound, which honestly is very impressive for a mixtape, plus the whole thing is mixed by Mathematics himself! They could have easily pressed this up for distribution and sold it, its that nice.

Mixtapes and Promo's all week here at Propz Monkey. I wont be treating these as regular albums, meaning im not going to go all out and in depth review them or more specifically, put any scores at the end, probably going to drop a few quick words on them and be out, anyways these are all from my collection of things ive gotten for free over the years, hopefully you find somthing you enjoy.

First up is a nice mix from...once again, blueprint and RJD2. As you can see from the tracklisting its pretty much remix's and a best of to showcase the best of what both artist have to offer, and they do a fine jod of selecting cuts, nothing but the finest from both of these cats, be it killer Print guest verses or wonderful RJ production, all of it hits on every point. One thing to keep in mind though, dont let the tracklisting deceive you, all of these are on ONE track, meaning you essentially have a 60 minute long, blended mixtape, it can be annoying when you want to skip right to a favorite song but personally I dont mind, its a dope tape to throw on and let ride from front to back, luckily there isn any skip worthy material so it all works out for the best.
