Little Brother- Get Back

There isn't enough time in the day to describe to you how badly we need a group like Little Brother in the game right now. They're smart, they're witty, they have a presence about them that is just so unique and not contrived, it's literally like a breathe of fresh air everytime they do they're thing. While their first offering to us The Listening was nothing short of fantastic in the way of their social commentary and production, it flew significantly underneath the radar. Today the group has made a few changes, most notably the absence of long time collaborator and in house producer 9th Wonder (only one track on this album is produced by 9th). Despite the lack of airy, soulful looped beats that 9th is known for this album crushes mostly everything else dropped this year. Recruiting names like Ill Mind, Hi-Tek, Nottz and Denaun Porter to produce tracks on this album, surprisingly the group's messages and sound is still very much the same; it's still teetering on brillance. With songs like "Good Clothes", "That Ain't Love" and "Dreams", Phonte and Big Pooh disect some of the backwords thinking that goes on in the hip-hop community and does some reflecting on just where they stand in the game. This album is a spectacular display of what Hip-Hop could be and my opinion of anyone that ain't gonna get down with this is that your sleepin big time man. Little Brother has arrived in the form of a 11 track sophmore album that gets 3 1/2 outta 4 stars from me man.
