Blackolicious - The Craft
- "The Craft, the ambitious and crafty new album by Blackolicious, is funky, crisp, and fresh. The beats show the dedication and eagerness to grow in the rap industry.
Blackolicious finds the cruel truth in the world and makes it every listener’s reality. “Black Diamonds and Pearls,” and “Give It to You,” talk about struggle and changing attitudes.
Even though Blackolicious is evidently expanding lyrically and musically, they still stay true to the spirituality and positivism that they are known for.
Every track is eccentric in its own way, and that makes the album flow wonderfully. It is rare to find a cd you can just play straight through, from beginning to end, without wanting to change each track or turn off completely. “The Craft,” besides Kanye West’s new cd, of course, might be one of the best new rap albums out.
