Kaos: The Anti-Acoustic Warfare 2001 Album

Adam F

'Smash Sumthin' is a great way to start which is also found on Redman's underrated 'Malpractice' album. It's hard as nails and I've always loved its energy. From there we have a decent M.O.P. song who come with their usual style. Capone-N-Noreaga's 'Listen Here' is okay and Lil Mo's 'Where's My...' drops the standard even further. 'Greatest of All Time' or 'G.O.A.T.', as it's known on LL's album, is back to something closer to the standard of Redman's opener. Unfortunately from there we have as many interludes as songs. After the more hardcore hip hop feel of the first half, we're given more of a conscious hip hop theme within the second half of the album with Pos, Guru and Pharoahe Monch but there is nothing amazing here. Adam F was a drum and bass producer who released the well received album 'Colours' before getting more into hip hop and he did produce some great stuff, but there isn't a lot of it on show here. Best Tracks: Smash Sumthin, Greatest of All Time, Last Dayz
