专辑介绍:
Q_k'7Z\g$ k+eeVy Ready your ears, if you can, for the mind-blowing,
fz+dOIU3\L astounding, sonic boom that is Yo Majesty's first
<^e full release. This Florida duo takes the attitude
rFW,x_*_vP of Kelis, mixes it with M.I.A. and Missy and takes
Ma ]*Pled it to the limit?before pushing right through it.
@8cn<+"b IKp/xj[! Though they've been making music since 2000, it's
@Fb
2c0?Y only in the last 12 months that things have really
zRm@ |IT taken off for Yo Majesty. Since signing to Domino
hdbm8C
3 Records, performances at SXSW07 and supporting The
Ed#Hilk' Gossip and CSS have led to complete media hysteria.
tSTl#xy NME put them in their 'top 11 bands of 2008' and
8`|Z9umW* they also featured in a list of 'the 25 most
"Q[?W(SA exciting artists in America right now'.
;F/w&u.n iu`B8yI It's fair to say this is not going to be a release
T^2o'_: that sinks without trace. But if anyone can handle
%^iBTfq2hc that wave of frenzy and the accompanying pressure,
aM\Ph&c7e' it's Shunda K and Jwl B. Rapper Shunda first met
"OrF81 gospel singer Jwl in a club 杢heir fitting
?Elt;wL( philosophy is ''church in the morning, club at
?oU5H night''.
NV\{$*j(|J k!g%vx Don't be fooled by their gender: there is nothing
ca'c5*Fs girly about this Basement Jaxx co-produced album.
o"qG'\x Opener F***ed Up is pure expletive-ridden vitriol,
<07~EP with lyrics screaming, ''hit me I want some
I%mGb$Q attention'' juxtaposed with soppy ''I love you''s.
ql_,U8Jw Take the rage in Kelis' Caught Out There and
ii ^Nxnc= multiply it by ten.
VB=jKMi 6PMu*-Nv!j These are punchy, lyric driven tracks on the whole
ca:Vdrw` ?though there are some great melodies like Buy
6^z):d#u Love and Don抰 Let Go. The album title is fitting -
zy8D&7Ytf this could be the soundtrack for a film set in 2500
EV
R>R AD where women rule. The oozy bassline on Never Be
uAV-wc Afraid certainly feels out of this world.
D!V*H?;U S\@U3|Q5 They may look like they抎 be more at home outside
oLt%i:, A the school gates, but don抰 judge a book by its
]!WD">d: cover. They've been compared to Public Enemy and
7fW$jiw Outkast and credited with ''coining a female
Nbt.y 'd equivalent of macho'' but Yo Majesty are making and
M{X; H'2 breaking their own boundaries - like a new improved
$T*g@] Salt n Pepa for the Noughties. This brilliant,
.R&jRtb/E powerful hip hop never hits safe territory; it's a
n-CFB:L challenging listen which will more than reward
bG]?AiWr those brave enough to try it.
