Once again we at HHLE have been asked to do another Review. This time for its for A.B.S’ Loma Prieta. After listening to this album it covers Things we’re about, Whoures and Booze. without Further BS lets get into this.

A.B.S. a blog favorite Rapper is located in San Francisco, CA. A.B.S. Has been using the internet to get his music out years before the mainstream was. Back when he was on Hip Hop sites like Lyricalcombat.com he’s been continuing to Improve is Skills and grow. his hustle has become a blueprint for every artist trying to make things happen on a modest budget. His album “Loma Prieta” is his latest album he’s done and we had the privalige to get a advance copy before its released on May 21st 2009.

The Breakdown

What’s different from the last review we did? Well, this album is more of what we like. It’s more real, more complex, and has a more gritty underground tone. A.B.S doesn’t try to make his sound mainstream just to break out, he just puts himself in the music which pulls the listener in for the ride. The album intro “Last Lecture” is more of a real Introduction to the album than just a skit. It’s heavy with punchlines and short, but it gets the job done. “So Cool” is up next which is probably one of my favorite tracks on the album. It’s driven by an Andrew Dice Clay sample and has an old school N.W.A. vibe to it. The album isn’t all about swagger though as A.B.S. shows us on tracks like “I don’t wanna be right” and “The Rain” being some of the deeper more personal tracks. These are the really soulful joints, I mean “I don’t wanna be right” is well put together. It’s all not sunshine and gum drops though as the lyrics are sincere and heart-felt. “Man Up” is kinda clunky, not in the sense of a 16 year old learning to drive stick, but more of like trying to speed up while driving and all of a sudden a speed bump comes out of no where. “Jello Move” is the main club track of the album, its a little dumbed down compared to the rest of the album, but the song topic didn’t call for complexity. “I’m Gone” and “New Era” are the songs addressing whats wrong with the Hip Hop game. “New Era” features Icadon of the Gilla House fame who’s been on every A.B.S. project since the two met. Both emcees are great on this track. “006 and the Microchip” is a dope storytelling track with a surprise ending that leaves you wanting more. Now comes “I’m Boozin’” which when i saw the title i thought this will be my favorite track on the album. The lyrics were what i expected, the chorus not so much. To me the singing doesn’t really seem to fit. Another mentionable is “Someone’s Watching” which touches on the topic of paranoia in a world full of cameras. When the smoke cleared by the last track, A.B.S stayed true to what he does. He came with that real, at times deviant A.B.S we all know. A.B.S. hints on “Last Lecture” and “I’m Gone” as well as the “Farewell Address” (delivered by WWE vet Ric Flair) that this may be his last stint. The question is…will A.B.S. come back? Will he retire? As the rumor mill turns I’m sure we’ll get our answer since it seems he can’t sit quiet for long.

The Review

A.B.S brought the dirty, REAL Hip Hop we don’t get to hear anymore from this watered-down genre. The album wasn’t a hit and miss kind of deal, some tracks hit and some were slightly off target. For the most part the album was solid. Some tracks just didn’t go as smoothly as others. Production by Skullneck Records resident producer The Last Brain was solid. My only problem quality-wise was the differences between A.B.S and Dollarmentary (who just got off the “Stay High” tour with Redman and Method Man) on “Bite the Bullet” which was produced by Grammy award winning producer Rockwilder. Dollarmentary’s audio quality was slightly lower then A.B.S’ was. All and all it’s a great album. If you like Redman and Method Man then check this out.

rating 4 1/2 Whoures out of 5.
because the source gives out mics, we give out whoures. Honestly everyone loves a whoure.

Ive also included a press release with more information. Also Visit absmusic.net for more info and where to buy this album.

A.B.S. releases new LP “Loma Prieta”

SAN FRANCISCO, CA. – San Francisco rapper A.B.S. releases his 4th album “Loma Prieta” on his independent label Skullneck Records. Following on the heels of the underground success of his “Booth Classics vol. 2″ Mixtape (sequel to the original mixtape hosted by Gilla House/Johnny Pump artist Icadon), A.B.S. releases his fourth LP in four years. When it comes to most artists, quantity doesn’t translate to quality. That’s not the case with this born-bread Philadelphia rapper who also kept his mic warm with 3 mixtapes during the span. Now hailing out of downtown San Francisco, A.B.S. displays his east coast influences on international beats. With tracks mostly produced by German producer and Skullneck Records mainstay The Last Brain, you can expect the same variety of music they displayed on their co-released LP “Smoke N Mirrors” in 2007. Grammy award winner Rockwilder produces the banger “Bite the Bullet” featuring Dollarmentary, which is a sure stand out. Sneak previews of the album were leaked on TSM Radio (#1 Podcast on iTunes hosted by Stu Stone of Mtv’s Blowin’ Up), which immediately got the internet buzzing. A.B.S. performed his heartfelt hit “I Don’t Wanna Be Right” live on the same podcast stirring up weekly requests for replays of the performance. “Loma Prieta” is a nice break from the norm with street anthems meant to be played at maximum volume. A.B.S. is the first and only rapper to appear and perform live on CNBC’s “Suze Orman Show” promoting her “Get Your Money Right” Tour with Russell Simmons.. The performance clip has become a viral classic since it aired in 2005. Jacksonville Jaquar’s Maurice Jones Drew describes A.B.S. as “Hip Hop’s #1 Draft Pick.” Wanda Sykes was quoted as saying: “When you hear this sh*t, Bit*h you gotta stop!” And that’s just a couple of people of interest who have chimed in on A.B.S.’ talent.

As we all know O.J Simpson was in court again for robbery and kidnapping. He got charged with it as well got life for it. It’s a violent crime. They did have a vendetta against him, the Judge too as well as the D.A. Who picked an all <span style=”font-weight:bold;”>White Jury</span> nothing wrong with white people but you got Vegas low market on housing, variety on different races. There’s not 1 Asian, Middle Eastern, Hispanic, and African- American who had Jury Duty. When you were selecting the Jury. I find that hard to believe. Here’s a picture of the jury. Do they look down with Obama, Samy Davis Jr, James Brown, or Kanye? Hell no! The jury in the O.J. Simpson kidnapping case have taken the unusual step of speaking out, giving a press conference to deny their guilty verdict was to punish the former American football star for ‘past wrongs’. Bullshit! Why a press Conference Guilty of something?

Here’s what they had to say:

Juror <span style=”font-weight:bold;”>Teresa Owens</span> said any suggestion that the jury found Simpson guilty because of the verdict 13 years ago was “terrible.”

“There’s reports right now that we’ve had some kind of vendetta against Mr. Simpson for … 13 years ago,” she said. “That in no way had anything to do with this case whatsoever.”

Mr Connelly said the Nicole Brown and Ronald Goldman murder trial “never came up” during their deliberations in the kidnapping case.

One panellist, <span style=”font-weight:bold;”>Dora Pettit</span>, said she prayed for Mr Simpson before and after the case.

“I think he’s an ordinary man that made a bad decision,” she said. “I prayed for him and Stewart and the attorneys. I don’t have any ill feelings, and if they walked out tomorrow, so be it.”

Ms Pettit also hit out at reports that the all-white jury was racially biased towards the two black defendants.

“We’ve been painted as an all-white jury who hates OJ, and that’s just not true,” Pettit said.

You guys seem very guilty of something. Being races. Holding a grudge or mad that he had a fair trial 13 years ago and was found NoT Guilty. It made you jurors, Judge and the D.A mad, upset and dissapointed. He deserves a fair trial.

<span style=”font-weight:bold;”>I found this info on a site. Had to talk shit.</span>

<span style=”font-weight:bold;”>Jade Yoker</span>
Jade had a problem, when the director of his football movie Gridiron gang asked him to wear O.J. Simpson’s number 32 jersey.
Jade Yorker is in love with Leona Lewis.
O.J. Simpson
Jade Yorker 13 not 32
Throughout O.J. Simpson’s career in football, he wore the number 32 on his jersey. Jade was asked to wear number 32 in his last movie with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, but refused and instead wore the number 13.

Huh? Are you serious.

Jade Yoker? Who the fuck is he? A washed up fool who thinks wearing number 32 is gonna effect his Hollywood Career. That shit is wack as fuck! I say a black man saying no because “<span style=”font-weight:bold;”>Jade wants people to remember him for his movie career and his upcoming music career with Grammy winning producer Rock Wilder, and not for wearing O.J. Simpson’s number 32 jersey</span>.” May I say that you are being fake, a pussy and funny. You probably listen to rap too. Or you listen to Hannah Montana because it’s positive music. LOL <span style=”font-weight:bold;”>I don’t want to be known as the guy wearing a OJ jersey. Damn funniest shit I ever read.</span>If you do listen to rap I hope there’s no cusing, sex, and violent metaphors. Wal-Mart!

Producătorul hip-hop şi câştigătorul de Grammy, Rockwilder care a colaborat cu artişti precum Jay-Z, Busta Rhymes, Erykah Badu, Janet Jackson şi Destiny’s Child a decis să pună de o parte hip-hop-ul secular şi să-şi concentreze atenţia asupra rap-ului creştin.

Rockwilder afirmă că în lumea hip-hop-ului se petrece o schimbare. Părerea producătorului este că hip-hop-ul a ajuns într-un stagiu în care toţi rapperii vorbesc despre aceleaşi lucruri (droguri, femei, alcool, ura faţă de poliţie etc.) ceea ce a devenit plictisitor.

Rockwilder declară într-un interviu iniţiat de cei de la Movement TV că a făcut o schimbare totală în viaţa sa şi vrea să se întoarcă pe vremea când era copil, vreme în care a fost crescut ascultând muzică creştină. Sursă.
