Kinkynasti
''Kinkynasti'' is the second studio album by American hip hop group Five Deez. It was released on Studio !K7 in 2003. Critical reception '' Spin'' wrote that "this brainy, brawny crew straddle urban tough, dirty smoove, and indie introspective. It's a tough mix, but Pase Rock and Fat Jon the Ample Soul Physician keep it flowing like happy hour." Del F. Cowie of '' Exclaim!'' described ''Kinkynasti'' as "a cohesive and intelligently crafted affair that remains loose and carefree enough to retain and reinvigorate hip-hop's celebratory aspects." David Morris of ''PopMatters'' said, "What comes out is beautiful, funky, propulsive, and dreamy, but it is also undeniably hip-hop, and anything but soft." Gabe Gloden of '' Stylus Magazine'' found the lyrics as "sonic drapery" for Fat Jon's "discernable ear for details" in crafting party-ready hip-hop beats that grab the listeners' attention, concluding that, "''Kinkynasti'' is one of those albums that every DJ should have in his/her bag, an ...

2003 Albums
3 (three) is a number, numeral and digit. It is the natural number following 2 and preceding 4, and is the smallest odd prime number and the only prime preceding a square number. It has religious or cultural significance in many societies. Evolution of the Arabic digit The use of three lines to denote the number 3 occurred in many writing systems, including some (like Roman and Chinese numerals) that are still in use. That was also the original representation of 3 in the Brahmic (Indian) numerical notation, its earliest forms aligned vertically. However, during the Gupta Empire the sign was modified by the addition of a curve on each line. The Nāgarī script rotated the lines clockwise, so they appeared horizontally, and ended each line with a short downward stroke on the right. In cursive script, the three strokes were eventually connected to form a glyph resembling a with an additional stroke at the bottom: ३. The Indian digits spread to the Caliphate in the 9th ...

Pole (musician)
Pole is the artistic name of Stefan Betke (born 18 February 1967), a German electronic music artist commonly associated with the glitch genre as well as dubtronica.Cooper, SeanPole Biography, Allmusic. Retrieved 15 November 2013 History Born in Düsseldorf, Pole took his name from a Waldorf 4-Pole filter, which he accidentally dropped and broke in 1996. Though the filter was perhaps no longer appropriate for DJ work in its damaged state, Betke found the strange hissing and popping noises the filter now made interesting sounds. He then began using the broken filter to create music, launching his musical career. Betke's first four albums, titled ''1'', ''2'', ''3'', and ''R'' (an intentional trilogy of albums, followed by a collection of remixes of Pole's 1998 debut EP Raum), were all based around this filter, with songs usually taking the form of dub basslines and rhythms with percussion provided by the eponymous filter. In 2003 Betke departed from this style for the album ''Pol ...
