Resurrection (Lords Of The Underground Album)
''Resurrection'' is the third album by the rap group Lords of the Underground, released in 1999. Production The album was produced by DJ Lord Jazz and K-Def, among others. Critical reception ''The Plain Dealer'' wrote: "No cornball skits, no cast-of-thousands posse tracks, just two rappers and a disc jockey doing their thing, and doing it well." ''The Star-Ledger'' thought that "the Lords are sample-crazy, lifting everything from Bill Withers' 'Ain't No Sunshine' to Sade's 'Jezebel'." AllMusic wrote that "''Resurrection'' is strongest when it relies on the classic tenets of hip-hop and its MCs' own talent, instead of grafting the latest trend onto an existing formula."

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] |
