Bavu Blakes Album Review:
REAL HIP HOP at 2005-11-11
Bavu has created and hustled his way to become one of Texas best lyricist, rappers, thought provokers, or whatever. On this album, Up^South opens with a perfect introduction to his style, which is somewhat old school production wise but not lyrically. Track 2 is Bah-Voo, a great single he released which kind sums up his name and his game. My favorite tracks are Overnight and a hidden track at the end of the album produced by DJ Nick Nack. The whole album is great and the dude has got it. Yet, he is still relatively unknown in the states, which appears to be fine by him. Its also fine with me, I like knowing and seeing great hip hop, especially live. This guy puts on a show, usually with a live band. His newer stuff shows how he is still creating and hustling and how there will NOT be any kind of sophomore slump from him. Look for the album Too Selfish coming soon from him!
