Getting It How U Live.......2007-06-16

There was a time when Cash Money had good albums from the artists on their roster and Hot Boys' Get It How U Live is one of them. Juvenile, Lil Wayne B.G. and Turk bring their unique styles of rapping to the table over Mannie Fresh(whose beats didnt sound as redundant then as they do now)production. This album has its vintage Hot Boys tracks like We On Fire, 50 Shots, Dirty World, Get It How U Live, Blood Thicker and Spit 'N Game. The Hot Boys also have their solo joints like Lil Wayne's Block Burner, Juvenile's Take It Off Your Shoulder, B.G,s I'm A Hot Boy and Turk's Infrared Dot. Also Bun B makes a guest appearance on I'm Com'n. Skip Material: B.G's I'm A Hot Boy and the On Tha Porch(part2)skit. Bottom Line: Hot Boys Get It How U Live is The Hot Boys best album before they got lazy and commercial. Unlike Guerrilla Warfare this album didnt have to grow on me. Standout Tracks: WE ON FIRE, 50 SHOTS SET'S IT OFF, BLOCK BURNER, NEIGHBORHOOD SUPERSTAR, DIRTY WORLD, GET IT HOW U LIVE, INFRARED DOT, BLOOD THCKER and SPIT 'N GAME

And the star is..........2006-01-15

I have to disagree with homie below me. Juve isnt the star. Surprisingly, Turk is! He's the best hotboy for this short period of time.
Still
Definately get this cd.

The album that set if off!.......2005-09-05

This is the Hot Boys' first album as a group, and even though Cash Money Records had sold hundrieds of thousands of records before it as well, this was the record that gave them the Universal deal. Untill this album, the label was huge only in their region, and while it was enough to make Baby and his label rich, very few oustide the Dirty South had heard about CMR. Well, that album changed all that. It sold more than 400,000 copies independantely!... So, what's so special about this one?... It's the first time the four hottest rappers on the label united and worked together. This album was released in 1997, so all of them were VERY young: Juvenile was 22, B.G. was 17, Lil' Wayne was only 14(!) and Turk wasn't much older as well. Depite their young age, all of them menage to impress - each one having his own unique style. Juvenile is the star of course, the one who shines above all: His crisp delivery, hint of humour, and passionate truthfulness in his words have always made him a standout in a world filled with lackluster rappers. B.G. has got a darker, more gangsta oriented style, while rapping real calm and grimmy (almost with no emotions whatsoever). Lil' Wayne is a young teenager on this one, but his talent can't be ignored, especially on his first ever solo song "Block Burner" : his rap skills still unpolished and his voice is still kinda quite on this album, but the charisma and creative delivery are already there. Turk also impresses with his thugged out rhymes and overall mic presence. So, as you see all of the Hot Boys do a great job, even though some of them (Lil' Wayne and Turk) were just getting started (Juve and BG already had a few albums under their belts). And as usual, it was Mannie Fresh's awesome beats that stood up! There are 13 songs (+ 2 totally useless skits) on this album, and the production on them is flawless. Some of the beats are laid-back, some are harder, and some have a darker feeling to them (especially Lil' Wayne and BG's solo songs). Lyrically the boys don't dissapoint as well. To those ignorant so called "hip-hop fans" thinking CMR is only about flossing, you couldn't be more mistaken - the Hot Boys's rapping is all about gangsta rap, living in the streets, hustlin'. There are a few songs, that have a social and deep message as well. There are no "party-style" songs, and no songs about sex, big behinds or whatever. CMR is all about the streets on this one, they're hard-core to the fullest. Out of the 12 songs (+ 2 skits and a Big Tymers intro), you get a great solo song from each member, and the other 8 are all group efforts. B.G is missing on a few songs, since he had some drug problems at that time, but his presence is well-felt on the songs he's on. "Get It How You Live!" is one of CMR's best early releases, and the one that got the label that huge destribution deal with Universal Records. The album was released a year before "Back that a** up" and couple of years before "Bling Bling", and overall the album is just as good as the albums those huge singles were on. And to think that things only got better from that point on... The rappers' style improved and matured and even Mannie Fresh's beats got on an even higher level!... Bottom line is - this one is a classic, you should not miss it!

This is the best hot boys album.......2004-12-16

This is the best hot boy album eventhough the second one is just as good. The beats are on point and like always the lyrics are thugged out as hell. If you don't have this you need to get it.

Hot Boys are the greatest.......2004-02-05

A lot people don't realize how good the Hot Boys really are because they have only heard radio singles. If you own any cash money CD, which I own a lot of, you realize that they talk about more than bling-bling and hoes. The Hot Boys in their prime were like a N.W.A for the south. Hardcore gangsta rap. They really put it down back then. I espescially like tracks 14 and 2 on this CD.

How do I rate?.......2007-01-10

First off.. To compare anything Lyrics Born has done to any mainstream hip-hop today is unfair. Lyrics Born puts radio MC's to shame not only lyrically but more importantly musically.

One thing I really love about this album is the feeling of energy behind the album. Rather than just grabbing his balls and strutting around stage with a doo rag and 2 guys saying "yeah" in the background. Lyrics Born actually puts on a show. He feeds off the energy of the crowd and interacts with his band.

The free verses on this album are incredible but what I really love is the 70's funk feel to the whole album. I recommend it. To me its like a new album in a sense. The full band with every new song adds and entirely new dimension to the music. The verdict is still out on the new studio tracks, but the live stuff is excellent.

Long live Lyrics Born.

Forget What you Thought You Knew About Hip Hop.......2007-01-06

It's no surprise that the Bay Area creates great Hip Hop; the history compounds upon itself. This isn't Hyphy, this is Funky and Soulful and the CD is indiciative of the type of show Lyrics puts on. If you had the chance to catch him on New Years at the Independent you know that the music is eclectic bolstered by a full band behind him, powerful and catchy female vocals and Lyrics grizzly growl underscoring the grit and guts that is funky hip hop. This is one of the best artists touring today and this album is a good precursor to a show experience but not a substitute. I suggest buying the album and them finding the next show and expanding on the enjoyment. Solid melodic flow, great vocals, chest thumping bass with catchy hooks and as unique a sound you'll find to date. Enjoy.

needs the polish of the studio.......2007-01-05

OK, right up front, I'm a middle-aged (white) dad who only likes some hip-hop. That said, I discovered LB's "Same !@#$ Different Day" CD and love it. It is a great mix of new hip-hop and old 70's soul. BUT, I have to say that this live disk was a disappointment for me. For my taste, rap is best after it undergoes the TLC from the studio magicians mastering the sound boards.

Lyrics Born Breaks The Mold...Again!.......2006-11-19

Lyrics Born breaks the mold yet again by venturing where most rappers and hip-hop artists fear to tread; a live album!

Lyrics Born (aka Tom Shimura) does have one up on most hip-hop acts around today in the fact that he performs with a live band instead of a DJ and pre-recorded samples. What results is an album full of raw energy, emotion, funk and soul!

With Bay Area classics (he hails from Berkeley, CA) such as "Lady Don't Tek No", "Bad Dreams" and "Callin' Out" (a song featured not only on the Adrien Brody Diet Coke commercial, but also in the film 'Waiting') Lyrics Born gets the crowd singing along as if those songs came from Sydney, Australia instead of the Bay Area.

This crowd participation is heard throughout the album thanks to his dynamic stage presence and phenomenal showmanship which adds nicely to the vibe of this classic album!

Lyrics Born is indeed a master of his craft and it really shows in songs like "Do That There" and "Stop Complaining" with lyrical gymnastics that would leave even the best rapper's heads spinning.

If over an hour of live Lyrics Born wasn't enough, he tops off this amazing album with brand new studio tracks that give listeners a brief glimpse at what his next studio might just sound like. Featuring fellow Quannum label-mate, Pigeon John, Del The Funky Homosapien, Mistah FAB and others, Lyrics Born keeps your head bobbin' with new classics such as "Knock Knock" and "L I F E" and wraps it up with a remix to top all remixes!

If you like your music thick with the funk and chock full of energy and top notch performances then don't hesitate for one more minute and get this album right now! You won't be disappointed. The only thing left to discuss is what will Lyrics Born do next to top himself? Only time will tell!

Spare Tire...my 3rd CD by Peter Mayer!.......2000-03-14

I really like Peter Mayer's music,and Spare Tire Orchestra is Excellent! As lead guitarist for Jimmy Buffett, I had expected his music to be more hard rock, but it is passionate, emotional, blues/jazz influenced. Seeing him in person will have you hooked for life! Spare Tire, India (written about his daughter) and Remains are my favorites...then there's Moonlight over Paris, etc.....Only 8 songs on this CD though....Don't know why, but love his music!

Buy This CD!.......2000-03-13

Anything by Peter Mayer and crew is great! But I especially like this CD as it is acoustical, and I was at one of the concerts that inspired this (The Mill in Atlanta). I love his music both ways, but especially acoustically!

A great one.......2003-12-10

This album has inspired and inspiring performances of some of Ms. Kane's best songs from her first two studio albums.

"A Thousand Girls", "Tucson", "The Problem With Jazz" and, of course, "Off the Ground" are really wonderful to listen to. I am also glad to hear that the recording features a bit of her honest, funny between-song patter.

I like it as well as her most recent album Rain and Mud and Wild and Green.

If you like the Indigo Girls and similar folk or folk rock acts, it's time you heard Christine Kane.

a great vicarious fix.......2003-11-02

I had never heard of Christine Kane before a friend invited me to one of her shows, and these were the things that amazed me after seeing her perform live: 1. that we were not in a packed-full stadium full of fans throwing flowers and/or themselves onto the stage, and 2. that I myself had enough restraint as to not do that in front of the 80 or so people at this particular performance.

Her shows are like that, and so is her Live cd. It's true: she is a phenomenal lyricist and musician and that is evident on all of her cds. But to me, the thing that sets Ms. Kane apart from the pack and keeps me wanting more is the energy and style of her live performances, and her Live cd captures that experience. Like her shows, Christine Kane Live is fun, spirited, generous, thoughtful, dear, sexy, smart, sassy, real, and at times, just short of being raunchy, which we love. It's just her and her guitar, doing what she does --- which is to give so much to her audience that we all feel wonderfully spoiled. I have been listening to this cd for more than a year now and I still just love it. I always feel like I've given myself a treat when I listen to it ... not only is it really great music, but listening to her Live cd transports me back to that delightful gift of being in her audience.

If you've never been to one of Ms. Kane's performances, I highly recommend getting to one. And if you can't immediately make it to one of her shows, my suggestion is to drop her Live cd directly into the shopping cart and proceed to checkout ... it's a great vicarious fix!

Album Description

When I find myself stuck in the restrictions of my idea of who I think I am supposed to be I have to force my self to stop and look at who I really am. For the past ten years I have voiced my lyrics through many different bands and many different styles. All of which I learned from and loved. Some were not as true to me as I wanted them to be and some fit like the friends they were. I decided this past year to go back to my initial baby instincts I had when I started writing ten years ago, the simplistic approach of honesty. I am sharing with you a live recording that is filled with my exploration of this step. So please forgive me for all the mistakes and flaws this raw and vulnerable recording holds. I give you my heart, which is undoubtedly "IMPERFECT"

Customer Reviews:

Beautiful.......2006-10-10

This album is just amazing, i love Amy Jo's voice, i really do. what can i say? i'm her fan.
She masters her voice and her guitar, and she manages to do it in a beautiful way that sucks you into her world.
I wish we'd been given more than just 9 songs!

There's just one thing i really don't like about this album, and it's that girl in the audience that screams like a hyena at the end of almost every song. i can't stand her.

5 stars to this album, no doubt.

AMAZINGLY ENCHANTING!!!.......2006-06-28

This album takes a complete spin from her first album with everything performed imtimately through acoustic sound. I can't get enough of this album! The first day I got it, it was all I could listen to for two weeks straight and what I have to stop and listen to when I set my ipod on random select. Her words, voice, and music is just simply as beautiful as she is. I can't get enough of any of it. It's definitely a cd you put on when you just want to mellow out and think... I love it and I know other people would love it too!

Relaxing.......2006-05-19

I received this as an Easter gift from my parents and I was eager to listen to it. I had totally loved AJ's first CD and was hoping this one was just as good.

It met my expectations. I loved her voice and the acoustic melody, and the lacing of the journal entries between tracks. However, this CD is not really for those who don't much like acoustic. My mom heard me listening to it and called it "mood music", which is true. Amy Jo is also one of those people you have to listen to a few times before you can truly appreciate her, but after you do you're hooked. Her voice is like nothing I've ever listened to before, and it's certainly mesmerizing.

Simply Perfect.......2005-08-16

Great Songs, Lovely voice. You can't go wrong with Amy Jo Johnson's new album. Two words describe this album. Simply Perfect.

Perfectly imperfect.......2005-04-04

Amy's comments about her CD are dead on. I've been listening to this CD for about 4 days straight now. More than just about any other CD I've listened to, there is a feeling of vulnerability, of the artist really letting us into her soul for better or worse.

It's a one take live performance, so everything isn't studio correct, but that's part of the beauty of this album. Listening to this reminds me of some of the early small venues I saw Tara McLean in when she was doing the small club/coffee shop tours. Those are special moments, that you look back on and cherish.

If you like acoustic performances, just voice and guitar, of someone laying themselves out and saying "this is who I am", then you should get this CD.

Great Music.......2005-09-19

If you have never heard Josh Holmes, you are missing out!!! Josh is a great songwriter, singer, guitar player, and performer! I have been blessed to know him and watch his music grow. This CD is awesome, as are all of his CDs. Once you have the CD, you are sure to listen to it over and over again...

Born to Perform.......2005-03-12

I was introduced to Josh when I had privilege of seeing him perform at a small, low-key coffee house out in the Chicago suburbs. I was completely blown away by his technical skill on guitar, unique vocal style, and confident stage presence. This guy was born to perform. Having said that, I think this is a good CD, filled with well written songs and clever, heartfelt lyrics. However, I think Josh should return to his roots and incorporate more of that Motown sound into his music! It's what makes him unique and sets him apart from the rest of the monotonous acoustic bums. Also this man can play guitar like no one I've ever seen, yet this album doesn't reflect the scope of that talent. I wish this CD would capture more of the "true sound" of Josh Holmes. Nevertheless, it's still a great CD.

I totally recommend this CD for fans of Howie Day, David Grey, John Mayer, and Motown. Support an artist whose talent truly deserves to be rewarded. And if you ever have the chance, go see him live! You won't regret it!

One of the best CD's I've ever heard!!!!.......2005-01-12

This is one of the best CD's I personaly have ever heard. It is definatly a must have for a roadtrip. I would recomend this CD to anyone of any age. If you love a great voice backed up by great guitarwork strap on your headphones and enjoy:)

Ready For The Big Time - America, meet Josh Holmes.......2004-12-22

Anyone who knows Josh Holmes also knows the man is committed to his passion - music. He has worked very hard to make a name for himself in Indiana, but it is obvious the rest of America will soon be talking about this talented musician. I do believe this is his first CD picked up by a national distributor. A sure sign that Josh is on his way to becoming very successful musician.

And now, the review - track by track:

#1. Fallen - Is the best song on the CD. It has a great entry and quickly introduces the listener to Josh's great vocals. His gritty, almost coarse, voice makes him sound like a smoother and better singing Bruce Springsteen. I think this is the song on the CD that could get a LOT of "air" play. It is very catchy and shows off Josh's ability to write lyrics and music that match up perfectly.

#2. Come Dance With Me (Layla) - Strange entry on this one. My first thought was, "Ska BAND music! Noooooooooooooo!!!!", but after the second or third time listening, I started to like it a little. The only problem is that "Fallen" is such a smooth piece of work (good rock tune) that this was too big of a bounce for the second song to be SKA-sounding.

#3. Can't Keep Running - This song is good, but I think Josh needed to mix in some unexpected changes to spice it up a bit. This one is almost too calm, but I like it better than "Come Dance With Me".

#4. Flower - Is that Lenny Kravitz? Nope, it's Josh showing he has a voice and musical ability ready for "The Big Time." Great beat, great lyrics, and Josh manages to say the word "flower" over and over again without sounding like he should be hosting "Queer Eye For The Straight Guy". No easy accomplishment.

#5. Table 4 One - Mr. Holmes really outdid himself on the lyrics for this one. Bravo! The kid from Schererville, Indiana, is capable of writing well beyond his years. And I'll bet he only gets better at his craft.

#6. For Granted - There's a message here, hidden in these lyrics that may be too deep for me to read, but I'm sure Josh wrote this one from the heart. This is not his best work, but it wasn't bad. In fact, I don't think Josh has ever written a "bad" song. This song might take a few listens to really start enjoying it.

#7. Greener On The Other Side - Smooth, easy on the ears, and, a good slow song in the beginning. Picks up later on, and that adds to its appeal. The one complaint I have is that Josh repeats "FOR YOU" way too much. He really needed to remove that REPEAT. Or at least not REPEAT it so much. Other than that one complaint, I really like this song.

#8. Don't Look Back - This song once again shows Josh's range of talent. He manages to change pitches, direction, and focus just enough to make this edgy and at the same time keep it smooth. Not even sure how he does that. Glad he does, though.

#9. Grounded - Not a good way to the end the CD. This song doesn't seem to belong with the rest of the CD. But how many CDs are without one DUD?

So there you have it, my review. Seven really good songs and two that I wasn't quite fond of. Josh Holmes is a good musician, and his CD is up to par with those already on the playground (of the music business). I think most will enjoy this CD, Table 4 One. See that buy button up there? Click it. Support a musician who wasn't created by a Production Company but worked his way up from the bottom.

See ya next review!

Product Description

Danny Schmidt is a writer's writer, in the vein of Townes Van Zandt and Leonard Cohen. This is the kind of album you envelope yourself in at 2am, half drunk; with lyrics on your lap as you follow along line by line. This is Schmidt's first album since moving back home to Austin; the first to draw off the abundant wealth of Austin musicians, with the likes of Lloyd Maines on lap steel, Guy Forsyth on harmonica, Michael Longoria (Patti Griffin's band) on drums, and Bruce Hughes (Bob Schneider's band) on bass. "Parables & Primes" is lushly orchestrated, yet still sparse, with graceful touches of accordion, violin, cello, organ, trumpet, mandolin, and of course, some sweet harmonies. They make for a velvety backdrop - but it's the songs themselves, their messages and their poetry, that sit front and center on Schmidt's records, and this one is no exception.

Brilliant - This is a Real Poet.......2006-11-22

Listening to this collection of songs by Danny Schmidt reminded me of the first time I heard Leonard Cohen. He is a master-craftsman of a songwriter. His melodies are haunting like the best mountain ballads. Try listening to the song 'Stained Glass' on this cd and not feel that you have heard the work of a new brilliant poet.

Best of the Best.......2006-09-28

Just saw Danny perform live in Tulsa this past weekend and bought this CD; it's been in my player ever since. I suppose I'm just due for a long spell of fitting my brain around some hearty wordcraft and smooth picks and licks. There's nothing else to say about this musician other than that he makes you want music, want and love it more than ever. So glad I didn't miss him!

Stained Glass.......2006-02-25

This collection of songs shows musical capability in various styles. Fine guitar work and a melodic, clear and acurate voice. The lyrics contain imagery and feelings that bring great power to this music. Danny Schmidt is unique in many ways. It's fun to me to find that I cannot categorize his music. I titled these comments "Stained Glass" because that was the first song of his that I heard on the radio, and I wanted to hear more.

Phenomenal Album.......2006-01-04

This album is a strong following to Make Right the Time, which is a great album on its own. Danny Schmidt has a rare combination of amazing guitar work, solid voice and moving lyrics. I would highly recommend this album to anyone who has a love of music.

The essence of music........2005-12-30

I live in Austin- the Live Music Capital of the World. On any given night, you can wander downtown and hear block after block of venue after venue playing genre after genre of music. But one of the most memorable musical experiences I've had since I made Austin my home is witnessing Danny Schmidt perform for an audience of less than 100 in someone's back yard.

Danny deserves much greater notoriety for his talent. This album is honestly one of the best collections of songs I have run across in years. It makes me sad that it has one customer review. Two, now... It doesn't seem to bother him in the least that he doesn't have fame, fortune and glory, but it bothers ME. Here is his website: http://www.dannyschmidt.com/ Go there and make him known to thee.

It is evident that Danny Schmidt truly cares about the music that he crafts, and finally getting to listen to him play live was a real and true pleasure... His insight into love and politics and hell, even his battle with cancer, is fresher than most of what I come across. His music is real. It is thoughtful. It is gentle. It inspires genuine emotion. I highly recommend this album, and his others.
