Look Mom, no hands!
Fameless Fam, roll thick upon lands
From hand stands to coke pans.

“Blakroc? That sounds like an unmitigated disaster!”
No, child. Cool out for a minute.
Like lead track “Coochie” ft. Ludacris and ODB, the Blakroc project is a consistently fascinating and pleasant surprise. It bangs, it mumbles, it shimmers, and when it all comes together (as on the aforementioned “Coochie” and the should-have-been-on-The New Danger compressed jam of “On the Vista” ft. Mos Def) the end result sounds timeless. Don’t think timeless as in classic. Think timeless as in literally without a time. It is old yet vital, classically recognizable and inventive in spite of itself. Perhaps it is just the novelty of a well-considered album coming from Dame Dash, some of my favorite artists, and a rock group to whom I’d never given the time of day. I don’t know. Either way, Blakroc currently sits at a close second behind Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II on my albums of the year list. Okay, well it’s not that close. But it’s in second. And that’s not bad.
