What's The Flavor?
''What's the Flavor?'' is the third album by the American rapper Young MC, released in 1993 via Capitol Records. It was his final album for a major record label. Production The album was produced by Ali Shaheed Muhammad, Young MC, and Beetle. Critical reception ''Entertainment Weekly'' concluded that "Young strings the words together nimbly enough, but they never come to life." ''USA Today'' noted that "the album ranges in style from Tribe CalledQuest's hard-core sound to soft pop, cool jazz and dancehall reggae." ''The Indianapolis Star'' determined that Young's "personality was formed by TV commercials, which can make for some fun, but his pointlessness dominates an otherwise energetic dose of hip-hop, jazz and funk."

AllMusic
AllMusic (previously known as All Music Guide and AMG) is an American online music database. It catalogs more than three million album entries and 30 million tracks, as well as information on musicians and bands. Initiated in 1991, the database was first made available on the Internet in 1994. AllMusic is owned by RhythmOne. History AllMusic was launched as ''All Music Guide'' by Michael Erlewine, a "compulsive archivist, noted astrologer, Buddhist scholar and musician". He became interested in using computers for his astrological work in the mid-1970s and founded a software company, Matrix, in 1977. In the early 1990s, as CDs replaced LPs as the dominant format for recorded music, Erlewine purchased what he thought was a CD of early recordings by Little Richard. After buying it he discovered it was a "flaccid latter-day rehash". Frustrated with the labeling, he researched using metadata to create a music guide. In 1990, in Big Rapids, Michigan, he founded ''All Music Guide' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
